The fourth series was called You Are What You Eat: Gillian Moves In. MethodsThe show often uses shock tactics to get the participants to lose weight. In each episode, all food eaten in one week by the person(s) taking part is placed on a table to highlight problem areas of their diet. Another technique is the analysis of the participant's faeces by McKeith to detect certain problems and make them known to the person involved. This aspect of the show gained McKeith the nickname "The Awful Poo Lady".[1] Emphasising the possibility of the participant's death is sometimes used, with references to children they might not see growing up or a mock grave being prepared. Generally, editions would have these scenes in the first part of the show followed by the participant's attempts to follow McKeith's diet and exercise regimes in the second. The fourth series was expanded from half to one hour programmes, with the contestants moving to McKeith's London house and being visited overnight at their homes for inspection. International versionsLocalized versions of You Are What You Eat were produced by Viasat and aired in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Hungary and the Czech Republic. Viasat was the first company in the world to adapt the format locally. MTV3 also produced a local version of the show in Finland. The show was a success and it was the frequently most viewed show in Finland when it was Participant weight lossWeight loss by participants was often significant, with some examples as follows:
Based on the results of 34 participants in the series the subjects all recorded significant weight loss with an average loss of 4.3 lbs per week and an average 12.7% of body weight lost over the 8 weeks. This compares to recommendations by the British Dietetic Association that weight loss be in the region of 2 lb or 1 kg per week[2] or 5-10% over six months,[3] although participants were following the regimen under consultation with their doctors and generally starting from a high weight and a very poor diet. ControversyIn the first series of the show, McKeith was sometimes referred to as "Doctor", and she has continued to use the title in some media, although the later series referred to her as a "holistic nutritionist", using the title "Ms. Gillian McKeith" at some points. It emerged in December 2005 that Gillian McKeith has no accredited doctorate. McKeith received her PhD via a distance learning programme from the American Holistic College of Nutrition, Alabama, which later became the Clayton College of Natural Health before closing in 2011.[4] The Clayton College of Natural Health stated that it was "accredited by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners and the American Naturopathic Medical Accreditation Board".[5] However, this accreditation was never recognised by the U.S. Secretary of Education.[6] McKeith is also a member of the American Association of Nutritional Consultants, a controversial organisation which seeks to enhance the reputation of Nutritional and Dietary Consultants by consolidating them into a professional organisation. It offers examination and certification, or association membership which does not require an examination but requires the payment of the $60 membership fee.[7] TitleYou Are What You Eat was also the title of an American film from 1968. The phrase "You are what you eat" was first expressed by Ludwig Feuerbach in 1863 (German: Der Mensch ist, was er iszt.).[8]References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.badscience.net/?p=304 |title=The Awful Poo Lady |publisher=Bad Science |date= |accessdate=2012-04-19}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.bda.uk.com/foodfacts/TruthFadDiets.pdf |title=Archived copy |accessdate=8 June 2011 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110626220041/http://www.bda.uk.com/foodfacts/TruthFadDiets.pdf |archivedate=26 June 2011 }} 3. ^{{cite web|author=British Dietic Association |url=http://www.bdaweightwise.com/lose/lose_goals.html |title=Weight Wise - setting realistic goals |publisher=Bdaweightwise.com |date= |accessdate=2012-04-19}} 4. ^[https://www.theguardian.com/life/badscience/story/0,12980,1285600,00.html "Gillian McKeith, round 2"].
