Discussion: Senate Panel Scolds Dr. Oz On Weight Loss Scams

Discussion for article #224036

Hey, Doc, consult a psychic before you respond.

Never forget what was behind the curtain in “The Wizard of Oz”.

Ah that magic pill that will allow you to eat anything you want and lose weight. It is astounding that people still believe this crap. The second biggest scam has got to be the “anti-aging” cosmetics b/s

win win… mccaskill gets all kinds of media attention for being rough and tough; oz gets major promotion on the teevee news to sell more remedies for what ails ya. the dopes who buy his stuff are going to continue to buy his stuff. it’s amazing to see any of these scam guys sell millions of dollars worth of whatever, years later the govt steps in to shut them down; then after a couple of years, they’re back with a whole new scam.
hucksterism – the american way.

The dude’s a con artist. Also, he should consult an oath he took when becoming a doctor.
