  1. My feelings for Dr. Oz are similar to that of people that tell my to try yoga for my chronic pain. Like I literally have a medical condition that makes yoga terrible for me to the point my doctor told me to avoid it.

  2. Right now “DR” Oz is threatening to remove people from medicaid…”if they don’t deserve it. Code for obese people. Or grumpy people or chronically ill people. Hope Dr. Oz finally gets what’s coming.

  3. My child went from 41 lb to 26 lb in a few weeks at the beginning of her cancer treatment at age 4. It was the most brutal treatment I have ever seen and I was an ICU nurse for 25 years. The person I most credit with saving her life was the nutritionist. And more than once I heard her yelling at somebody about idiot TON orders.

  4. Dr. Oz is now the administrator for medicare and medicaid. And Trump is dismantling medicaid as we speak with "the big beautiful bill" to give tax cuts to millionaires. Science and medicine are under attack. Its all about political spin and tax cuts for the rich.

  5. ב''ה, screaming into the void here, but if any of y'all want to look into the absolutely wild less known necessity of dietary guanine as a cofactor of sorts in "having neurotransmitters" biochemistry.. weird side quest in my life to bring some attention to that for TPN and the "cancer ate your tongue so here's a dozen cases of Ensure a week" equivalent.

    Chlorella is a good source. Someone do a proper study and figure out if the 'having what should be a RDA' accidently promotes the cancers y'all are trying to treat and we can't have nice things, or if it's GRAS to at least provide what an omnivorous diet would to the eating impaired.

    Also if y'all are on med student sort of diets, a gram or three of chlorella with sufficient B6? and folate.. whatever, keeping variety in your energy drink consumption should cover it.. goes a ways to keeping brain worky, IMHO.

    This is mostly sidelined down a not actually very 'woo' portion of 'autism' research, and 'autism' is a nebulous woo category to satisfy anyone who wants amphetamines, but there's a whole bunch of weird genetic metabolic disorders that probably should just have their own names instead of trying to bend psychological miasma to fit the biological realities.

    Just don't give yourself gout. If you feel gouty back off the chlorella a bit.

  6. You know, this is the same feeling I get when I try to explain to people why I can't eat certain foods. I have tried to explain to my colleagues at my last workplace as to how food intolerance works and how IBS works… And how you don't need to have IBS to have some foods that just don't digest well in your gut lol.

    But man the amount of people I try to explain to that "no I'm not allergic to onions or garlic. I can eat it in small amounts, but if I have enough it will ruin my day" lol 😅
    You would also think people would look it up and learn from it once they hear about this stuff but nope lol.

    I remember I had to explain to my Mum that just because she used onions or garlic in her cooking and then took it out, doesn't mean I can still eat it. I've tried to explain how mincing garlic makes it more powerful and potent and bad for me, as opposed to frying garlic. And that putting garlic in soups and taking the garlic out is just as bad because all the juices go into the soup.

    You would think with having the internet and at much info at our fingers we would be better at sussing out this stuff but… The problem is people don't learn how to interpret and analyse information that they read. So, that's why you end up with people who hear about fad diets and go all in. It's either delusional or not being able to analyse the information they gain. It drives me nuts lol.

  7. I'm Aussie so my Mum didn't really watch Dr Oz as much but still got/gets information from morning shows or something she watched on TV. Meanwhile I'm like "come on just look it up online, do a bit of research and see what medical sites say or something".

    But these are the same type of people who hear something once and it is really hard to change their minds on it. Unfortunately the same with other stuff happening in the US right now. -_- and yeah my parents are the same type who will research but, think research is ignoring everything that doesn't fit in with their own damn theory or ideas. So yeah, it ain't just Americans lol. Plenty of people are like this. And yet when I was a kid I was told to "stop asking questions". Lol. Luckily I never stopped doing that… Though that might be my auDHD there. I've always been fascinated and need to understand things lol.

    I think it's what keeps me from falling for stupid info or diets online. I always thought they were stupid even before we had the internet to say otherwise. Although it might have also been because my Mum kept falling for crap she heard or saw on TV and while she didn't learn from it, I certainly did lolol 😅😂
