Heath Question... Who thinks that Dr. OZ is a QUACK ??? Do any of his so called cures really work?? Welcome your opinions?

He really is sounding like a quake in my opinion... Too bad he was recommended by Dr. Phil many years ago.... Time his foolish nonsense is taken off T.V.

    Some of his advice is good, most of it is peddling the 'cure of the day' and it complete BS. He is bringing the Miracle Elixir late night infomercial to daytime TV.

    There are a lot of alternative treatments that are not accepted by the medical establishment, but that work.

    And there are a lot of alternative treatments that don't.

    I don't watch Dr. Oz, but I imagine that some of his stuff is believable and some isn't. People need to do their own research and make up their own minds.

    He promotes anything on his show to keep ratings up and make money. There was one cure a while ago, I can't remember what it was, but he said it didn't work, and then a few months later he was promoting the same therapy on his show, saying it did work.

    He has lost his credibility as a doctor.

    He's no worse than say Oprah, who peddles books on mental health and religion, or a multitude of other talk show hosts. However, if he's taking on the GMO Industry, then I'm all for him.

    I don't think he is a quack, but everyone should always do their own research on any televised advice/opinions/recommendations.

    Well, he is absolutely right about gmo foods. Genetically modified foods are terrible for heath, and most people are clueless about it. Big food companies are trying to discredit him, so that they will not lose profits. Dr.Phil is the one who is a quack.
