Dr. Oz selling 'fairy dust,' says medical ethicist
A medical ethics expert says TV star Dr. Mehmet Oz is going too much in endorsing kooky, nonsensical products on his daytime chat show.
The celebrity doctor was scolded at a U.S Senate hearing earlier this week for his endorsement of various weight-loss products, including a green beans extract he called a " for every body type."
Dr. Oz is basically promoting fairy dust and just what I am talking about by that, he spends a while in the show sending legitimate messages about health insurance and how you can preserve your health to his large audience, but he spends
too much time touting fads, touting unproven remedies, said Arthur Caplan, founding director from the division of medical ethics at Ny University.

Detox treatments by Dr. Oz yet others lack evidence, benefit
In an interview with CBC The Lang & OLeary Exchange, Caplan said Dr. Oz was getting too far down the road of non-traditional medicine, alternative medicine after which even further into unproven, even shyster medicine.
Caplan said a doctor, a reputable cardiothoracic surgeon, is raising the kinds of doubts among his peers that could tarnish his reputation.
He could have some legal troubles coming out of this, because if someone said, I followed your advice, I used this and that i had a bad event or perhaps an untoward outcome, they may try to hold him liable for that, Caplan said.
'If you are making claims concerning the efficacy of products, you could be violating laws within the states that require honest and truthful advertising'
- Arthur Caplan, medical ethicis
If you are making claims concerning the efficacy of things, you could be violating laws within the claims that require honest and truthful advertising.
Dr. Oz admitted to the Senate committee he used flowery language concerning the products, but said he was trying to give hope to watchers who wish to slim down.
"My job, I feel, on the show is to be a cheerleader for the audience, so when they don't think they've hope, when they don't believe they are able to make it happen, I wish to look, and I do look everywhere, including in alternative
healing traditions, for any evidence that could be supportive to them," Dr. Oz said.
He said he earns nothing from the makers of these products and that most of the items that market using his name do so illegally.
'Drain the swamp'
Dr. Oz promised the Senate he would "drain the swamp" of unscrupulous marketers using his name to peddle so-called miracle pills to countless Americans eager to lose weight.
Caplan agreed Dr. Oz has been careful not have holdings within the companies that sell these weight-loss supplements, but said he's profited from offering a quick fix to his audiences.
He doesnown any of these things or make money form their sales as far as I know but he certainly builds his ratings your clients' needs this stuff on his tv program as well as on his website, Caplan said.
He wouldn have the audience he's if he stuck towards the mainstream boring assistance with health lose weight, do more exercise, drive carefully, eat correctly, wear head gear whenever you ride a bike.
Caplan said medical ethics, in the U.S. and Canada, are evident that doctors shouldn be selling supplements or other things using their office. Dr. Oz hasn crossed that line.
Where I think he could get into trouble is,has he violated his ethical responsibility to become evidence-based, to only promote sound medical practice, Caplan said.
Audiences seduced
Caplan said Dr. Oz reputation as a distinguished academic and surgeon seduces his audiences into a fantasy where they believe they are able to lose weight a few weeks.
He puts that weight behind all kinds of kooky, nonsensical remedies that could get you in trouble with your peers, might get a hearing with a medical board. Would he lose a licence I doubt it, but he could draw attention,Caplan said.
He recommended the chat-show host rethink his approach.
