More on McKeith
From The Observer Food monthly. I laughed out loud at this:
To clarify, floating stools that will not flush show a plumbing imbalance. Some toilets are better designed than others.
"A cursory glance through her books reveals that she is no scientist. I opened You Are What You Eat at random, and read the following: 'Floating stools that will not flush show a liver imbalance.' Catherine Collins, chief dietician at St George's hospital, London, points out that: 'it is impossible to diagnose medical conditions from looking at a normal brown stool.' Even a persistent floater? So it seems."

"chief dietician at st.george's hospital," woooo i'm impressed. i can't believe i've been put in this position of being an apologist for mckeith. you're all falling for the science bit. a made-up doctorate off the interweb is just as valid as something bought in another way from one of our wonderful seats of learning. you are what you eat is ace telly, if a bit of a one-trick pony (and trap). if she can convince lardies to lose weight, what's the problem?
it's the folds of skin left flapping about afterwards that we need to address.

Not only the skin....it's the persistent sound of the brain rattling in the skulls of the gullible that needs addressing.
