Breatharianism
Jubb has claimed to be a breatharian, obtaining his primary nourishment from light and air.<ref name"nytimes2005"/> He described "It's taken years of evolution to get to this place. I recommend someone first become a Lifefoodarian. Then move toward liquidarian, then to breatharian. Since 1995, I've basically practiced a very austere form of 'going without.'<ref name"nytimes2005"/>
Jubbs was a raw foodist for over a decade before the late 1990s when he says he began eating only herbal tea with honey, gaining his nutrition from "intestinal flora and friendly yeast" and his own urine.<ref name"highbeam1"/> "The ancient ones wanted us to know it's no secret why death occurs, so they put eat in the middle," he said.<ref name"highbeam1"/>
Jubb's breatharianism is not constant, and it involves eating very little rather than nothing.<ref name"nytimes2005"/> "When I have broken down over the years, what I always like to have is a piece of cheesecake," he said.<ref name"nytimes2005"/>

Personal life
Jubb grew up on the Furneaux Islands near Tasmania.<ref name="nytimes2005"/> He got his doctorate in physiology from New York University and became a raw foodist.
