Marilyn Diamond is an American author and speaker on the topic of anti-aging and longevity. She is known for advocating a "cleansing" or "detoxification" diet.

Career

[edit]

In 1985,[1] with her then husband Harvey Diamond, she co-authored the best-selling health and wellness book Fit for Life.[2] The book built on the natural health movement that had roots in 19th century, and was part of the development of the fascination with celebrity beauty in contemporary American culture.[3]

Diamond's ideas about diet and aging have been the subject of controversy in the media.[4][5][6] In particular, nutritionists disagree with her assertion that some foods should not be eaten together.[7]
