Coaching Common Folk and Celebrities

Dr. Alvenia Moody Fulton gained popularity as she worked with common folk and celebrities in their journeys to better health. Her work with celebrities started with coaching comedian and activist Dick Gregory through a highly publicized 40-day fast in protest of the Vietnam War. By the 1970s, Fultonia’s could have passed for the central office of the United Nations, with people from the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Europe waiting in line to eat lunch, purchase products, or consult with Fulton. The deleterious lifestyle that seemed unavoidable before Fulton’s time is optional in the twenty-first century. Nutrition is one of today’s hottest topics. Words like “Paleo” and “Keto,” unheard of a decade or two ago, are now on everyone’s lips. Today’s media is replete with ads for fad diets and weight-loss programs, and modern cities are littered with health food stores and vitamin shops, all of which owe a debt to the work of Fulton, even though few aware of her work.
