C'mon ... London Disease?Gillian McKeith, a British nutritionist desperately seeking clientelle, has virtually assured herself work by inventing something called 'London Disease.' Encompassing chronic fatigue, burn-out, attention deficit disorder and stress -- in other words, a whole bunch of stuff people make up -- she insists the medical community needs to take her seriously because 50% of Londoners have it. She says it is caused by bad diet or appendix removal. Dr Richard Smith, editor of the British Medical Journal, said, "LD sounds like utter nonsense." He did not cite what percentage of Londoners were missing their appendix. And no word on what Gillian thinks of his diet. Article Here |
