His sensationalized rhetoric results in no pity from me. Glad he is in the hot seat.

He was on the senate hearing and McCaskill was grilling him.
He's not in trouble
"According to a news release from McCaskill's office, "...The FTC claimed that weeks after green coffee was promoted on the Dr. Oz Show, Pure Green Coffee began selling their Pure Green Coffee extract, charging $50 for a one-month supply."Kick.com/beetoxic

He has done an episode informing consumers that he does not endorse products and if consumers sees his name mentioned in product as copies, they should be wary.Originally Posted by BlueRev

I hear he is backed by proctor and gamble, hence why the few things he does endorse (sometimes with free giveaways if you are the first hundreds of people) are P&G products

I personally know a cardiologist that is a friend of my mom, and from what I know, the amount of money he/they rake in is ridiculous. Righteously so, of course.Originally Posted by TMac26

With regard to his nutritional and supplement advice, he is pandering, plain and simple. Nobody would watch the show 5 days a week if he just talked about calories in and out and calculating TDEE. Everybody wants the magic pill and the media machine loves the soundbites and ratings and ad revenue.Originally Posted by Synapsin
He is mainly an entertainer. Back in the day, he would be on the edge of town peddling snake oil.
And who doesn't post here anymore? Dr. Horse?
