The Hallelujah diet is a controversial diet that is promoted by George Malkmus .
Malkmus claims that the diet is "Biblically-based" and, if used correctly, can eliminate diseases, increase wellbeing and even add hundreds of years to a person's life. The diet consists of eating raw fruit and vegetables, as well as taking Malkmus' own trademarked vitamin supplements.
On 28 August 2004, a woman in Newcastle, Australia, died from cervical cancer. She had been diagnosed with the disease some two years previously. Both she and her husband decided to refuse all medical treatment (including chemotherapy) and instead rely upon the Hallelujah Diet and prayer to make her well.
The diet is aimed mainly at the Christian community, particularly Charismatics.
