Craig Sams – Organic Pioneer, Chair of the Soil Association and author of âThe Little Food Bookâ
He completely overlooks the reasons for her [Gillian McKeith] massive popular success in his pettifogging quest for whether she has the qualifications that he and his fellow doctors flaunt as their passport to being a monopoly gateway between pharmaceutical companies and prescription drug addicts. Those addicts got their first dose of a painkiller, tranquiliser or steroid from a qualified doctor, all based on impeccable research from eminent scientists. Once hooked, they are condemned to a lifetime of repeat visits to their doctor/dealer.
Dr Ben Goldacreâs current beef is with Gillianâs claim to scientific accuracy because her references are not from, what he calls, âproper academic journalsâ. Funny, isnât it, how Dr Ben Goldacre has never written about the fact that the worldâs leading medical journals banded together in 2005 to tell Big Pharma that they wouldnât publish any more crap research unless the drug companies also owned up about who funded the research.
After mustering courage for that challenge, they had to do it again, this time to curtail the practice of doing research again and again until scientists got the ârightâ results, then not disclosing any of the research that had got the âwrongâ ones. Itâs only since mid-2006, that, for the first time, there are rules that restore trust in the research in âproper academic journalsâ.
Anyone who has followed the Vioxx scandal will wonder how prescription drugs with dicing-with-death risks continue to be marketed, even after the risks are known. The answer is that the medical establishment are willing accomplices. I had a quick read of Gillianâs book You Are What You Eat â all sensible stuff, the type Iâve applied myself for 40 years â and I donât see any life-threatening risks to following her advice. I donât have a degree in nutrition but I know whatâs good for me and it isnât what the peer-reviewed experts periodically recommend (before contradicting each other every now and then) âŠÂ read more close hide
