Wowzers. An anti-vaxxer and quack peddler.
Weight-Loss Supplements Controversy During his career, Dr. Oz's endorsement of untested weight-loss products became a major problem. He promoted goods like forskolin, garcinia cambogia, raspberry ketones, and green coffee bean extract on his TV show, frequently referring to them as "miracle" cures. In 2014, the Senate Subcommittee on Consumer Protection investigated his claims. Findings revealed: • The supplements lacked scientific evidence supporting their efficacy. • Financial ties existed between manufacturers and Oz's show. • Oz did not disclose these conflicts of interest. Oz came under fire from medical professionals for endorsing unproven goods. Harvard Medical School nutritional supplement researcher Dr. Pieter Cohen called his endorsements "reckless." Columbia University's Dr. David Seres referred to the assertions as "misleading," as was stated in a New York Times report.

We can’t abandon children affected by a parent’s drinking just because it’s difficult to help them.

We can all make a difference by normalising the conversation around addiction without judgment or blame.

And THAT is exactly how people with a huge sense of entitlement regularly behave when they get caught out.

More than a million pallets of unusable Covid PPE, costing £8.6 billion, have so far gone up in smoke

Billions of pounds were spent on completely unusable protective equipment, with a series of priority contracts handed to associates of Conservative ministers
