The 21-year-old admitted he has intense stomach issues and wanted to get to the bottom of it, so the family hired Dr.Mark Hyman and nutritionistMona Sharmato perform anin-depth analysis.

Jadensaid he was apprehensive about partaking because of some backlash he got for going vegan.

"After the last episode, I walk in the street and people are like, 'Oh my god! Are you sick? Can I pick you up? Could I get you some water?'Come up to me like, 'You can have my food, man.,'" he said.

Dr. Hyman explained that Jaden's nutritional deficiencies were from eating the wrong types of food and his health status can be adjusted by switching up his diet and taking supplements.Specifically, he was told in the episode that gluten and dairy were both "big problems" for him.

Also, because Jaden doesn't eat meat, he has vitamin and omega-3 deficiencies.
