(Food-Beverage-News.Com, July 01, 2014 ) Salt Lake City, Utah -- The only way to not have heard about the recent attacks against popular TV show host, Dr. Mehmet Oz, would require a life lived under a rock, which by the way, will lower Vitamin D levels. Senator Claire McCaskill, chairwoman of the Subcommittee on Consumer Protection, has a serious bone to pick with Dr. Oz, going so far as to accuse him of doing damage to his one muti-award winning show, claiming he cheapens his show when he endorses natural dietary supplements and healthy eating.
She even makes up new vernacular, saying, "When you feature a product on your show, it creates what has become known as ‘Oz Effect,' dramatically boosting sales and driving scam artists to pop up overnight using false and deceptive ads to sell questionable products," the Senator explained. "I'm concerned that you are melding medical advice, news and entertainment in a way that harms consumers."
But life is not lived under a rock, and maybe if a little research is done on dietary supplements, like Pure Forskolin root extract, it may be possible to see past the stinking wall of media putrescence and discover the true reason for this viscous attack against something as benign as green coffee bean extract.
In 2012, Dr Oz aired a show on a widely unknown supplement called green coffee bean extract, and he claims he, "used the word ‘miracle' when referring to how green coffee could melt fat," after he explored a new study and became enthusiastic that it could be a tool to assist people in losing weight. Heaven forbid.
Donahue's point about real people bragging about real results continues to be ignored by the press, as does the fact that Senator McCaskill has received hefty donation sums from large pharmaceutical companies and even Monsanto. And it is especially resonates if you look at the number of real people getting real results from the wide array of products Dr. Oz has brought into the public eye. The numbers are staggering.
The top 3 sellers on Amazon per product and the number of review are as follows:
Green Coffee Bean Extract - 6,000+ positive reviews
Garcinia Cambogia - 6,000+ positive reviews
Raspberry Ketones - 2,000+ positive reviews
Mangosteen Green Tea - 2,000+ positive reviews
Acacia Powder - 1,000+ positive reviews
"I liken it to Miracle on 34th Street," comments Donahue, "here we have some Senator trying to do what she can to prove that natural supplements don't work, yet in reality, the proof is there to show that they do work."
Perhaps Senator McCaskill ought to re-evaluate what her idea of "truth" is. Is there only her version of the truth? A version lined with Big Pharma opulence? Or is there another truth that thousands of people are experiencing every day by taking Dr. Oz's advice and avoiding GMO foods, diet soda, and preservatives and chemicals in the food supply?
"Just take a quick look at Dr. Oz's web site. He has information there about healthy eating, how to decode food label buzzwords, and the food industry pesticide cover up," explains Donahue, "and then ask yourself why Dr. Oz's name is being muddied. It's pretty clear to me that this is a demonization of a man who has not broken any laws because his information is a threat to the bottom line of Big Pharma and Big Agri."
