Gillian McKeith

Biography

What can we say about Gillian McKeith that isn't potentially defamatory? Well, she was born in September 1959 in Perth, Scotland, and wrote a number of books on the subject of nutrition. This led to the television series You Are What You Eat (2004-7) on Channel 4, where she changed people's diets by shouting at them, and pointing at their faeces. A competitive version of this format was made in 2007. It emerged around this time that Ms McKeith was not a qualified medical practitioner, and that her PhD was not from a recognised academic institution; as a result of these revelations, she ceased to describe herself as "Dr McKeith", because she is not a doctor.
