About Jordan S. Rubin
(from themakersdiet.com)
Jordan S. Rubin founded Garden of Life, Inc., in 2000 after overcoming an incurable disease — one that nearly ended his life. When both conventional and alternative medicines failed and left him wheelchair-bound at death’s door, he took matters into his own hands. Today, the 28-year-old credits his survival and vibrant health to an enduring faith in God and a revolutionary health program he calls The Maker’s Diet.
Scientific Contributions
Jordan created Garden of Life and formulated its proprietary line of more than 30 nutritional formulas to support overall good health. He codeveloped a proprietary probiotic fermentation process known as Poten-Zyme™, the cornerstone of Garden of Life’s formulations. Jordan and his team at Garden of Life are on a mission to change the way America eats and lives by redefining a healthy lifestyle.
Books and Publications
Since his recovery, Rubin has dedicated his life to sharing his dynamic health programs, including writing such well-known books as Patient Heal Thyself: A Remarkable Health Program Combining Ancient Wisdom with Groundbreaking Clinical Research (Jan 2003, Freedom Press); Restoring Your Digestive Health: How the Guts and Glory Program Can Transform Your Life (May 2003, Kensington Publishing); and the New York Times best-seller The Maker’s Diet (April 2004, Siloam).
