David Sandoval built Purium from nothing into a natural health company valued at $100 million, but his story starts long before the boardroom, with a stretch of homelessness that shaped everything that came after. David Sandoval joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour to talk about that journey and the mission it created.
The conversation moves from his early days as a health radio host into the food-system concerns that now drive his work, touching on epigenetics, regenerative farming, and why he believes conscious eating is one of the most overlooked forms of personal power.
About David Sandoval
David Sandoval is the founder of Purium, a natural health and nutrition company built around whole-food supplements and clean-eating principles. He got his start as a health radio host before building Purium into one of the most recognized names in natural health, with research recognized by the National Cancer Institute.

It's built on the idea that small, conscious food choices compound into long-term health — a throughline across his years building Purium.
