Paul, and his daughter, Patricia, have been health pioneers for
decades. At a time when the 'engineered fast food' products of
science and industry had captured the attention of most Americans,
Paul Bragg campaigned for a diet and lifestyle that focused on
natural living foods and a healthy regime for a vital and long life.
These ideas are based around natural and organic foods, they are
gaining praise and acceptance world-wide.
The Bragg Healthy Lifestyle Motto: You are what you "eat, drink, breathe, think, say and
do".
Here is an inside look at the career and
accomplishments of Dr. Paul C.Bragg, Life Extension Specialist, and

Paul's contributions to the Health/ Organic Food Movement,
Bragg’s amazing pioneering achievements the
world now enjoys:

Crippled by TB as a teenager, Bragg developed
his own eating, breathing and exercising program to rebuild his body
into an ageless, tireless, pain-free citadel of glowing, super
health. He excelled in running, swimming, biking, progressive weight
training and mountain climbing. He made an early pledge to God, in
return for his renewed health, to spend the rest of his life showing
others the road to super health. He honored his pledge! Paul Bragg’s
health pioneering made a difference worldwide.
A legend and beloved health crusader to millions, Bragg was
the inspiration and personal health and fitness advisor to top
Olympic Stars from 4-time swimming Gold Medalist Murray Rose to
3-time track Gold Medalist Betty Cuthbert of Australia, his relative
(pole-vaulting Gold Medalist), Don Bragg and countless others. Jack
LaLanne, the original TV Fitness King says, “Bragg saved my life at
age 15 when I attended the Bragg Crusade in Oakland, California.”
From the earliest days, Bragg advised the greatest Hollywood Stars
and giants of American Business. J C Penney, Del E. Webb, Dr. Scholl
and Conrad Hilton are just a few who he inspired to long,
successful, healthy, active lives!

walks of life with the Bragg Health Crusades, Books, Radio and TV
