The daughter of the legendary Paul C. Bragg, the originator of health food stores and founder of America's health movement, Patricia Bragg also introduced juicing and juice therapy in America. Patricia Bragg was destined to carry on the family name. The Bragg Health and Fitness Crusade taught million of people the secrets of good health, including a sickly, 15-year-old boy named Jack LaLanne who forever changed his life by adopting the Bragg Healthy Lifestyle, and who is now a dynamic 84 years young thanks to Bragg. No one can say how long Paul Bragg himself might have lived had he not met with an unfortunate accident while swimming in rough seas at age 96.

A natural teacher, her father once said that Patricia was "born on a soapbox". After receiving a Ph.D. and becoming a Doctor of Naturopathy, Patricia Bragg worked with her father full-time to bring this remarkable health program to the world.

Penney, Conrad Hilton, Dr. Scholl and Jherri Redding of Nexxus Hair Care are all among the many Bragg devotees who stayed healthy, fit and alert to almost 100.

A deeply spiritual woman, she believes "you can make your heaven here on earth. I make mine by sharing my message of health and happiness to everyone willing to listen".
