There are several well-known examples of Nobel Laureates in science who later become enamored with quackery. Orac mentions a few on his blog in

Can you guess who holds the record for the swiftest turn around from getting the Nobel Prize to endorsing quackery? (Hint: mentor of Richard Dawkins).
Of course this record only applies to scientists who became quacks 
after getting the Nobel Prize. That lets 
Kary Mullis off the hook.
