Gillian McKeith

Gillian McKeith’s book on “Food Bible: The Complete A-Z Guide to A Healthy Life” has become an instant success on the Amazon Bestsellers Chart. It topped the charts just after one day of its launch. This book contained a guide using Ms. McKeith’s theories and approaches to dieting. It promoted leafy vegetables, quinoa, nuts, seeds and berries.

Ms. McKeith said that her book was more about making radical choices in food to ensure optimum health. She said that poor food choices may lead to problems that shorten life expectancy. She was also an advocate of the daily fitness routine using Pilates. She first came into international limelight in 2004 with her work named “You Are What You Eat.”
