Alexander Yuan-Chun Chiu (born February 08, 1971) is a San Francisco, California businessman who invented a number of magnetic health devices that allegedly achieve remarkable results, including the reversal of the aging process and other health benefits. No rigorous scientific study has so far been performed to confirm or dismiss these claims, although many users have reported improvements in their health or a more youthful appearance[1].
He is considered by many[2] to be a snake oil salesman and quack. Chiu or his representatives have been known to spam Usenet and email advertising such products since the mid 1990s.
His website, available in a number of languages (English, Chinese, German, Spanish and Portoguese), has links to pages explaining his plans for, among other things, a world wide corporation, a device for teleportation, and a method for exactly divining the future.
According to his website, he follows the Judaism and bases much of his philosophy on Tanakh. He claims that immortality is possible as described in the Tanakh [3], and offers predictions as to who he believes will be the Messiah. He is also a supporter of the state of Israel, believing its establishment to be a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy.
Alex Chiu has also achieved internet fame through random pop-culture filled flash movies called fanimutations [4].
As of 2006 March, Alex Chiu is launching a new product: GorgeouspilTM. It is an herbal supplement to be taken on an empty stomach which, he claims, can boost dramatically the healing effect of the immortality rings and improve the attractiveness of the user, by gradually reshaping and realigning the spine and the cartilage-bone structure of the face.
In August 2006 Alex Chiu's website was banned from Google.
