WEST PALM BEACH, Fl., Sept. 27 /Christian Newswire/ -- Extraordinary Health with Jordan Rubin, the popular Christian health and wellness show, will begin airing on Sky Angel's satellite service October 1st. Hosted by America's Biblical health Coach Jordan Rubin, the series will reach 13 million Sky Angel® subscribers and focus on weight management issues and health topics. Sky Angel will air the show four times a week: Mondays at 8:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. ET, Wednesdays at 5:30 p.m. ET, and Saturdays at 1:30 p.m. ET.
"I'm excited because this show offers hope for a problem that is predicted to reach epic proportions by 2015 when studies forecast that more than 75 percent of Americans will be overweight," said Rubin. "We show viewers how they can finally get off the weight loss roller coaster and forget about fad diets by embracing a program that will help them manage their weight and achieve abundant health for life."
Extraordinary Health with Jordan Rubin features inspiring testimonies from members of the Toledo Church on Strayer who collectively lost more than 1,700 pounds on Rubin's Perfect Weight America program. Guests will share tips about how they overcame common weight control dilemmas and learned how to eat more organic, living foods to nourish their bodies. The show also includes an exercise segment called "Functional Interval Training," that shows viewers how to maximize work-outs in just 20 minutes, and a recipe segment called "Perfect Snack" that will tickle taste buds, but not wreck weight control efforts.
"Extraordinary Health with Jordan Rubin is an excellent addition to Sky Angel's Angel One network lineup," said Sky Angel Vice President of Programming/Media Sales Brian Collins. "The program's mission to deliver quality, relevant health and wellness content from a biblical perspective fits well with our commitment to deliver the best in Christian and family entertainment."
