Carolyn Dean

Carolyn Dean is an American conspiracy theorist, homeopath, naturopathic quack, cholesterol denialist, vaccine denialist and promoter of the "magnesium miracle" cure. She is a proponent of all kinds of medical woo and has utilized unscientific methods of testing such as hair analysis, Vega and Interro testing, iridology and reflexology as well as treatment not medically indicated and of unproven value, such as homeopathy, colonic irrigations, coffee enemas, and rotation diets. Dean is the director of the pseudoscientific Nutritional Magnesium Association. She graduated from the Dalhousie Medical School in 1978. In 1995, Dean's registration certificate was revoked in Ontario because of unfit medical practice and disregard for the welfare of 36 of her patients. She did not contest the charges and was not present or represented at her hearing. Dean, who now resides in Hawaii, wrote on her website in 2017 that it was an attempt by the "medical establishment" to discredit her.
