Industry Innovator: Andrew Abraham, MD
When life gives you lemons, you make … Orgain—at least if you’re Andrew Abraham. After being diagnosed with muscle cancer 10 years ago (he’s now in remission), this family physician who practices in Irvine, Calif., looked for a meal-replacement drink to meet his daily nutritional needs. After finding a lot of synthetic, overly processed ingredients in these products, Abraham and his wife created their own drink, and since there was an obvious hole in the category, decided to make their product available to everyone.
