Welcome to El Rancho Adolphus, located near Tompkinsville. This property was once owned by famed and self-proclaimed nutritionist and health expert Adolphus Hohensee in the 1940s-60s, until his death in 1967. Though he had no formal schooling in health or nutrition, Mr. Hohensee did hold an honorary degree, and also passed an exam that granted him a chiropractic license in Nevada. El Rancho Adolphus was Mr. Hohensee's homebase of sorts, and many visitors came to see the healthful place that he had created. Many pamplets and books were also published by El Rancho Adolphus. Despite the fact that many people bought the products and publications put out by El Rancho Adolphus, the Food and Drug Administration was constantly at war with Mr. Hohensee over the validity of his claims.
