Zimms Organics

David Zimmerman, the founder of Zimms, started the brand after overcoming a severe Crohn’s Disease diagnosis. He was debilitated after being in and out of hospitals for months, and losing over 70% of the blood in his body overnight. Doctors told him that he would be on medication the rest of his life, but that wasn’t part of his plan. After his body stabilized, he got to work. For years, he researched the human body (and biohacked his own), while learning about the food system in the U.S. He discovered that most chronic conditions (IBS, Crohn’s, Colitis, Diabetes, Heart Disease, etc.) weren’t prevalent before food became industrialized in the mid 1900s. He discovered the healing benefits of high quality organic extra virgin olive oil and its anti-inflammatory properties. He started consuming copious amounts of high quality olive oil and noticed a change in the inflammatory markers in his body. This easy dietary change, plus a myriad of other physical and mental wellness practices that he embraced, helped David get off medication for good (and he’s been off western medication since 2018). He quit his corporate consulting job with BCG, and launched Zimms Organics. 70% of the olive oil on the shelves is fake, spoiled or contains fillers, so David's goal from the jump was to work with local California farmers doing things the right way. After tasting dozens of EVOO from across the country, he found two spectacular organic family farms that work hard to create the best nutrient-dense EVOO possible. After meeting and shaking the hands of both families, Zimms Organics was born. Now Zimms serves thousands of customers through zimmsorganics.com, IRL at all Erewhon locations in Los Angeles and officially partnered with the luxury 5-star Ritz Carlton resorts. Inspired by David's healing journey, thousands of customers have also found relief from a multitude of conditions thanks to Zimms Organics (just check our 5-star reviews). Cheers to good health! Much love, David
