Yes, ignorance is everywhere. That is why Dr. Oz has so many viewers. You might ponder the meaning of the word 'ignorant' before you label the nay-sayers as ignorant.
And... I did not consider my comment rude... nor do I consider it immature... and my comment was not ignorant at all. I do, however, find it interesting that so many people feel the need to preach about what is and is not an appropriate comment. When they dislike something, they cry foul with words like "rude" and "ignorant"...
I was not attacking the OP. I was just expressing my dislike of Dr. Oz. I feel he has done far more damage than good through his show. I wish he would stop. In my opinion, he is abusing his power as an MD. I feel very strongly about this. He gives good advice mixed with nonsense and unfortunately many see "MD" and think, 'oh... he must know what he's talking about'. They blindly follow.
And so I use my "powers" in an attempt to prevent others from wasting their money on unnecessary supplements.
I used tongue-in-cheek in my original reply to the OP. I was being a little silly, intentionally, because the subject of "Dr. Oz says..." has come up so often and I have replied so often, that I think I should just get myself a hat that says "Dr. Oz is a quack" and call it good. Perhaps I should have responded the way I always do... but that gets old after a while.0 -

The fact anyone actually ponders whether Dr Oz's Belly Blasting Bullshit Stories are even remotely legit is what actually proves that ignorance is everywhere. We don't support bullshit here. Well, some of us anyway.0 -
I don't hate Dr. Oz....but what I don't understand is that he supports all of these "fast" fixes and it's a different thing everyday sometimes contradicting each other. He used to offer interesting info.....now he is just a sell out. Sorry you can't target fat...it come off where ever it feels like it!0

Wow, what's with all the hate for Dr. Oz? I'm pretty sure he's an actual cardiologist, his advice can't be that bad.0

He's a supplement-pusher and nothing more than a TV showman. He's been very wrong about a lot of things many times over.0 -

Yes, because most cardiologists go on TV and make a total @$$ out of themselves by saying "I don't support miracle supplements one season" then "Take this miracle supplement" the next0 -

There's one of these in every thread...
All these posts about how Dr. Oz sucks is proof that ignorance may be everywhere, but at least for now, not in this thread.0 -
:laugh:I'll be honest, when I read Forskolin all I saw was foreskin.

THAT. He's a cardiologist. He should not be peddling quick-fix supplements because one or two studies show they MIGHT increase metabolism in RATS (or something like that). He should stick to SOLID SCIENCE- you know, the kind that is backed by years of research with quality experimental designs, proper controls, and actual human clinical trial data with large sample sizes.
He has an ethical responsibility to do it right. He took an oath.0 -

You're kidding right?
Did you see the one where he was talking about how to lose a crap load of weight by using your shake-weight?
And then not too long after that it was just 15 minutes a day with Insanity (which is weird, since those DVDs are 40 minutes and up).
Or how about the one about him endorsing HcG?
If he's an actual cardiologist, then I hope to God nobody actually goes to him...0 -
I usually avoid Dr. Oz. He's like the modern Wizard of Oz himself. He looks like he can help, but he is nothing but a sham.0

I apologize, I don't watch his show, I just found it shocking that so many people were so opposed. Thank you for making me feel so welcome on this topic by attacking me. I will avoid touchy subjects in the future.0
