First Dr. Phil, now Dr. Oz. Oprah should definitely stop touting doctors on television.

Why? They're all filthy rich from spreading lies. Sounds more like President Oprah and her cabinet.

Honestly, the guy's name is on more than half the books in the self help/health/diet section in any bookstore. When I quit smoking I took 3 different cessation books out of the library. He wrote the forward to one and a jacket endorsement of another. He called both the best, most sound, last-one-you'll-ever-need program he had ever encountered. I think he just signs anything that's put in front of him for a fee.

this. hes not lying, so accusing him as much is not going to get you anywhere. hes selling the equivalent to homeopathic medicine. his advice, if you really listen to it, is just specific facts that he extrapolates into something that seems like it makes a big difference. hes just a really good salesman.

dr phil is actually a little more genuine. he sells his personality, and he too will give blanket advice that really doesnt mean shit but it sounds good.... however i think he often does find cases where people are in real trouble and he does his best to help them

So you are telling me that the newest frontier of medical research doesn't come in the form of a television show targeted to a bunch of bored housewives?

Columbia should be embarrassed that he is still there, but my guess is that they like the money and Dr. Oz is smart enough to be like any good con artist and simply lead people to conclusions he doesn't technically say.

Could your lack of B12 be the reason your kids hate you? Tune in to the next Dr. Oz to find out!

i love how his response to the people wanting him removed from Columbia wasn't anything about the specific claims, but "hey i have freedom of speech! "
