Dr Oz is officially a QUACK

Just turned on the TV to watch the Yankee game, stumbled on Oz's show, and his guest was DEEPAK CHOPRA.

Probably selling some more idiotic NONSENSE that he's been peddling for years. Yup, his latest book for rubes.
How anyone still watches Oz after he ADMITTED UNDER OATH the shit he peddles is crap. Now, he has on the biggest bullshitter of WOO in human history, Chopra.

PT Barnum was right on the money....

There's a lot of empirical evidence that this is beneficial. However, maybe things have changed in the 20 years since I read one of his books.

And Chopra is a POS. I remember his being on Oprah (who we can blame for starting or just helping the careers of him, Oz, and Dr. Phil) talking about how we all had mental powers and to prove it, he had Oprah start swinging a pendulum back and forth to influence it with her mind to start rotating, which of course it did as it was a Foucault pendulum, which does that automatically, demonstrating the Earth's rotation. Oprah, desperate to believe whatever woo her guests peddled, was amazed.
