Dehydration can kill your bird quickly, so always make sure there's water in her cage. Instead of buying a standard bird seed, look for a seed mix that is designed specifically for parakeets. These often contain dried fruit and other nutrition your bird needs, such as calcium -- low blood calcium can cause sudden death. Give her some small pieces of fresh, raw fruits and vegetables to help round out her diet. Don't leave fruit in her cage all the time, though.
This is a very rare situation, and usually only happens when there is no cuttlebone or other substance for the bird to do this naturally. In addition to trimming a parakeet's beak, the cuttlebone is also full of calcium, just like other bones. Calcium is an important part of a parakeet's diet. Note that female parakeets are naturally chewy birds. In their native Australian habitat, they would gnaw out holes in Eucalyptus trees to build their nests in.
