Isa Phillips  Athlete



A native of Kingston, Jamaica, and attended STATHS from 2002 to
2006.  A  graduate of Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge,
Louisiana, Isa competed in distance medley relays, 4x400 meter
relays, and 800 meters competitions during his college years. But
he is best known for competing in the 400 meter hurdles.  

After winning 400-meter hurdles titles at the 2004 National
Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) championship and
2005 National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA)
championship, Isa knew there was still more to come.  In 2007,
right before he won the NCAA Championships and ran the 400 meter
hurdles in 48.51 seconds—the fifth fastest time in the world that
year and the second fastest time in school history—Isa told an
Advocate sports writer, “I have the tools; I just haven’t been able to
bring out my best yet.”

Isa has since found his best and credits part of his healthy lifestyle
to TAHITIAN NONI® Juice. “I am a pro-consumer of Tahitian Noni®
products, and TAHITIAN NONI Juice and products has revolutionized
my life,” he says. “I grew up in Jamaica where noni grows wild along
the coastline and in the rural areas of the Island. I grew up in a
health conscious home where drinking noni was part of my daily
routine, especially when I started running track. When I moved to
the United States I was introduced to TAHITIAN NONI Juice by an
IPC, and it tasted great!  I knew how great noni is; great health is
invaluable, and so I don’t place a price on my health.”

Isa has participated in races all over the globe, including Osaka,
Japan; Padova, Italy; Rio de Janiero, Brazil; and Monaco. From April
through September 2008, Isa’s race schedule includes an average
of five races per month in many locations throughout the world. And
in June, he will compete for a chance to represent Jamaica at the
2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China.

With the Olympics in sight, Isa wants to stay at the top of his game.
His goal is to consume an entire bottle of TAHITIAN NONI Juice
during track competitions and consume 1–2 cans of HIRO™ per day.
He also wants to prove to his fellow athletes that it is possible to be
an Olympic champion without the aid of banned substances. “Since I
started drinking TAHITIAN NONI Juice in 2005, I have experienced
significant results in my athletic performance, health maintenance,
and overall health.”
