I reckon Dr. Oz is about a media-opportunist homo.

Yikes, Dr. Oz should just pack it in, quit reading medical and scientific studies, brushing his teeth, taking over-the-counter pain killers, drink Perrier' or going through scanners at the airport and concentrate on more important subjects like those covered in US, People, Inside Edition, Comedy Central or Geraldo!

That should protect the poor guy against any and all of his phobias.

Triclosan is ... used in several brands of toothpastes ... studies showing that triclosan in test animals
So who gets to brush the animals' teeth ... or do "smart" animals (like dolphins) do it themselves? :)

P.S. Doctor Oz is a whack-job.

[paterfamilias]

Enough, Dr. Oz. ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The daily car ride that Dr. Oz takes to work represents a greater risk to his health than all of these other things combined.

AND...In most cases, there is a greater health risk of NOT having an x-ray.

Where did this guy get his diploma? Sears?

[Pining_4_TX]

That would be an insult to Sears. ;-)

Oz is a quack and belongs to some weird cult, Swedenborg.

So I guess I shouldn’t have had the CT scan that helped diagnose tumors in my liver.

Here’s a clue, Doc. Life is terminal.

POE OPE EOP

Yep, Dr. Oz is today’s version of Dr. Strangelove!

[Harold Shea]

He`s also done around 5,000 open heart surgeries

He`s pretty good at lung transplants as well

I thought he was a muslim? Or at least born a muslim. Of course that is a weird political cult.

[2nd amendment mama]

There have been some studies that have shown that triclosan can cause some bacteria to be resistant to antibiotics. Not everything he says is bad. I also avoid OTC pain relievers as much as possible. I’ve had many gastrointestinal problems for years and they’re exacerbated by certain OTC products.

While I certainly don’t subscribe to all of Dr. Oz’s theories, I would not label him as a quack. He’s quite the capable heart surgeon! Just for the record, what’s your medical specialty?

[Deathtomarxists]

I wonder if he made up those numbers to build his image. Realistically how many could a Dr do each week? Times 5,000, would have to be a 100 year’s! Plus if he is doing other surgeries, regular practice, writing books, radio, etc 5,000 seems really unbelievable! I wonder if anyone has ever investigated his real record? Just to know he isn’t another Dr Phil.

The word charlatan was invented for this wizard.

[Colorado Doug]

Whew! I was afraid that smoking and drinking might be on the list!

[IamConservative]

Whew! I was afraid that smoking and drinking might be on the list!

I don't smoke, but I was glad to see Jim Beam made the cut!

[mrs. a]

Meth is not on his list, either. I was told that was a health risk but I guess I was misinformed.

[Colorado Doug]

Not that I drink. I’m just thinking of taking it up.
