You Are What You Eat

An interesting show, but Gillian McKeith's advice is often misguided and flat out wrong. Anyone who is obese and changes their diet to what she preaches will lose weight because of an absence of calories. However, she continues to stress the saturated fats in red meat as being the death knell. Well, red meat is NECESSARY for a healthy diet, and saturated fat has been proved to have no effect on heart disease. She often recommends meals that are meatless and have incomplete proteins in them. She's flat out wrong on these ends.
