She appears to live by peddling "untruths" :

The British Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has found McKeith guilty of "selling goods without legal authorisation whilst making medicinal claims about their efficacy". In an article entitled "A menace to science", Dr Ben Goldacre criticised McKeith for using a number of legal threats to silence critics of her work. His book Bad Science dedicates a chapter to a detailed rebuttal of McKeith's scientific credibility.
Health professionals have criticised her nutritional advice and questioned the validity of her qualifications, specifically her PhD. Another issue was "informally resolved" in 2007 by the ASA following a complaint that her use of the title 'Doctor' was misleading because her PhD was from a college not accredited by "any recognised educational authority".
Amanda Wynne, senior dietician with the British Dietetic Association, said: "I think it is obvious she has not a clue about nutrition. In fact her advice, if followed to the limit, could be dangerous. Her TV programme takes obese people and puts them on a crash diet that is very hazardous to health."
