In 1994, Jordan Rubin was a healthy, active 19 year-old college student, when he was diagnosed with Crohn’s colitis, a sometimes fatal “wasting disease” characterized by long-term inflammation of the bowel.
As in most chronic conditions, Jordan’s immune system began to fail. He suffered from intestinal parasites, severe Candida, extreme anemia, food allergies, diabetes, excruciating abdominal pain, chronic diarrhea, poor circulation, liver problems, chemical sensitivities, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, arthritis, insomnia, hair loss, prostate and bladder infections, irregular heartbeat, eye inflammation, and chronic depression. Jordan’s weight dropped from 180 lbs to a low of 104 lbs at a height of 6′1″. Jordan visited over 70 health professionals from more than 7 countries and tried more than 300 supplements; however, his illness did not respond to conventional or complimentary medical approaches.
In 1996, after a two-year battle, Jordan stopped using all supplements, ceased visiting doctors and began an intense study of nutrition. His diet consisted of nothing but whole, living, enzyme and probiotic rich foods and one nutritional compound he later named HSO’s™ or Homeostatic Soil Organisms™. In Jordan’s case, the HSO’s™ detoxified his intestinal tract, increased his ability to absorb nutrients from food, and boosted his immune system. Moreover, the HSO’s™ turned really agressive against pathological molds, yeasts, fungi, and parasites of all types, which permeated his gut.
Within four months, Jordan’s weight returned and his body began to heal itself. It has been six years since his recovery, and he exhibits no symptoms of the disease that almost took his life. Jordan is now a certified nutritional consultant, certified personal fitness instructor, and CEO and Founder of Garden of Life, Inc. He is now dedicated to sharing with you the health secrets that brought him “back to life”.
Jordan earned the designation as a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine from Peoples University of the Americas School of Natural Medicine, and most recently earned a PhD in Nutrition from Academy of Natural Therapies. He is also a Certified Nutritional Consultant, a member of the American Association of Nutritional Consultants, and a member of the National Academy of Sports Medicine. He resides in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, with his wife, Nicole.
