In other words, reverting to his Turkish roots.
Seems like the next biggest snake oil salesman. And yes he IS more or less a salesman even though he is supposed to be a Dr. In any health food store there will be products that will say “as seen on Dr. Oz” which to me scream of collusion, between Dr. Oz and the manufacturers as it is cross promotion, win win for them as the Dr. Oz audience IS Oprah’s audience.
It seems like the majority of females in this country view him as having an inerrancy far beyond any religion expects from their holy book.
I don’t like Phil , liked what few shows I watched of oz.
I have my own doctors and take information
from Dr TV and Dr Internet with a grain of salt.
I do agree with him on organic apple juice.
Not really a fan of the FDA$ either.
I see what you mean and I agree 100%
As a fitness trainer, I completely agree with you! LOVE that graphic!
Dr. Oz is a heart doctor.
One day I saw him take the blood pressure of a guy who was on stage. The guy was obviously very nervous being on stage.
Dr. Oz found his BP was high and concluded that he had High Blood Pressure and needed to get to his doctor and get some medicine.
Okay, so this heart surgeon has never heard of people’s BP going up temporarily due to anxiety???? I think most MD’s learn that the first year.
His advice on herbs and diet is pretty useless, but also not really dangerous. I would seriously wonder about his advice on other issues, tho.
Guess swarmy may be in the eye of the beholder, but if you've seen pictures of his wife and 4 kids you may rethink the "gay" part. BTW he's a cardiologist
It’s standard practice for doctors to take BP in stressful situations, and then try to admit the patient to the emergency room. Maybe it shouldn’t be, but it is.
“I would be very, very surprised if this shyster has tenure at the College of Physicians and Surgeons.”
Sadly, Dr. Oz is a Professor of Surgery at the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons; this type of appointment IS a tenure-track appointment.
A major embarassment for this P&S alumnus.
“BTW he’s a cardiologist”
He is NOT a cardiologist. He is a cardio-thoracic surgeon.
Nobody expects surgeons to think.
Everyone has a job title.
I made reference to his mannerisms. They are faggoty.
He can have as many wives and kids as he pleases, he still acts like a fag.
Been on committees with him. He was a pretty nice guy back then. I have never watched him on television. In general, I don’t think it’s a good idea to become a television personality as a doctor, but I guess there’s a role for this.
He’s not worthy to shine Dr. Atkins’ shoes.
“It’s standard practice for doctors to take BP in stressful situations, and then try to admit the patient to the emergency room. Maybe it shouldn’t be, but it is.”
Can you ‘splain that one?
Are they that dumb?
Good point. One could never lose weight walking, running, swimming, playing tennis...
As someone who has lost right at 100 pounds in the last 18 months, I can tell you how to lose weight
Eat right, exercise more.
That’s it - no tricks, no gimmicks, no pills.
The good thing about exercising more is that you can eat a bit more - not a whole lot, but enough that I’m rarely hungry and still losing slowly.
Not very fancy, but there it is
I couldn't post every sport on earth. My POINT is there is no miracle: you need to exercise (and eat right) to lose weight.
Agreed....
it works. i can’t take it because lots of these pills have some of the outer mango and rind part in them and mangoes are in the same family as the poison ivy, oak and sumacs - their outer skin/rind has urishiol oil in it and if you have a lot of reaction to the poison ivis, you will get a rash from taking the supplements.
