In 2014, Dr Oz started a stampede with his proclamation of
Garcinia Cambogia as a daily must for weight loss.
Several studies do show significant weight loss benefits for those taking this supplement, which makes it the
most popular diet product on Amazon.com.
It is primarily used to help control appetite, which naturally leads to less calories consumed.
But the history he has of promoting diet products of questionable effectiveness have thrown a lot of doubt on it.
In early 2012 he dramatically proclaimed that Raspberry ultra drops are even more important fat burners for
losing weight, calling it a miracle in a bottle. Then in 2012 he showed that Green coffee extract really helps
burn the fat on his show. It is also a fat burner as well as stimulant. It is also a strong antioxident and
has many other health benefits. Dr Oz also brought out 5htp as yet another appetite suppressant.
It is a natural substance produced by the body and is broken down to serotonin which is a neuro-transmitter
that signals the brain when you are satisfied and should stop eating. All these natural products were
over-hyped by Dr Oz. In 2015, he was called before the US Senate investigating Diet Frauds.
Since then Dr Oz has kept a much lower profile and been very careful about recommending products for weight loss.
