quackiest
Least medically legitimate
Quackiest is the superlative of quacky, meaning most resembling or suggestive of a quack—someone practicing medicine or another profession without proper qualifications.
The word carries a playful, informal tone: That's the quackiest health advice I've ever heard.
It can also describe sounds resembling a duck's call.
