I love Dr. Oz. You do have to use common sense when watching him. Not every product is good for everyone. His suggestion for beet root juice, kept my husband from having a stroke. Lowered his out of control blood pressure. Common sense folks!
Well, there's the problem! Common sense is the least common thing in the world. 
I'm so glad that your husband's blood pressure is under control now. That must be a huge relief.
Dr. Oz is a heart surgeon, on staff at a hospital in NYC. He has been involved in the treatment of several people I know. He most definitely never "gave that up to be on TV". There's so much misinformation in this thread!
Absolutely true.
Sometimes sensational ignorance and shrill comments are more popular than the facts. Dr. Oz has impressive medical credentials, is a practicing cardiac surgeon at Columbia and while some of his TV show's demonstrations are silly -- this thread proves that the average common denominator maturity-wise in this country is about 12 yrs of age. So evidently, some cutesy and highly simplistic demonstrations are necessary in order to educate people.
As for product endorsements, he doesn't do any. None.
If people can't accurately filter more than 1 piece of new information at a time, nor do any research themselves, they might want to limit their media exposure to Sesame Street.
Every good teacher knows that audio/visual aids always greatly assist in teaching a concept! In order to adapt to all viewers/students' learning styles, every good teacher will use supplemental demonstrations that are simple to understand. Dr. Oz exposes viewers to items/products that they may not be aware of, but I think that Dr Oz expects people to do research and make their own decisions.

He needs to stop endorsing products.
Agree. If he wants to recommend ingredients than that would be fine, but to constantly endorse different products lessens his credibility as a doctor IMO and makes him seem too much like a salesperson.
I believe Dr. Oz was a surgeon at one time (saving lives) and he gave that up to be on TV. I have no respect for him. Dr. Phil is another one. It's all about money for both of them.

AGREE. I too know people that he has treated many years ago. Before he was a controversial dr/show host he did A LOT of good for A LOT of people. Get some posters going and they run run run with it......

I was just about to post the same thing!

Update on Dr Oz demos -- saw Dr Oz show on Friday with all kids and some parents. Thought his demos were not really targeted at children. The kids looked unfocused and confused... more into the game of the demo rather than into the concept. I thought that he did not really tie in the demos/games to the concept he was teaching. He was speaking "over their heads" using scientific terminology rather than using children's vocabulary. Not the best of his shows....just my opinion...
