Anyone try this Dr. Oz juice???

Yes. People don't need to be guzzling down gallons of water every day to stay hydrated. But the bottling companies are perfectly happy for you to continue to do so. Meanwhile, I'll just continue to drink when I'm thirsty and consume plenty of fruits and veggies.

Why can't they just say that, instead of speaking to people like they're kindergarteners.

It has been said millions of times over the last 50 or so years since the 8 glasses of water was first recommended. They figure people have heard it enough that the 8 oz. is now understood and that (reasonably intelligent) people no longer need to have it spelled out for them every time.

Understood, but how did it morph from 8 cups (which is a unit of volume) to 8 glasses (which is a meaningless quantity). That right there shows me that people aren't as "reasonably intelligent" as you think.

Big bad bottling companies? Like, the municipality that provides my tap water? Alrighty then.

If you like it, drink it, just be sure to log the calories for it and understand it will not help with weight loss in any way whatsoever.

I'm guessing because people don't usually drink water from a cup and because drinking glasses used to be smaller.

Doctor Oz is the most dangerous doctor around, he keeps pushing his fraud products despite being called out by congress and being called out by fellow doctors who he in turn attacked. Even medical students are trying to get the man's liscense to practice revoked. I'm horrified that folks keep listening to him over their own doctors.
