Researchers randomly selected 40 episodes of The Dr. Oz Show and evaluated the 
recommendations that its star, Mehmet Oz, gives in each one. The majority of 
his suggestions involve dietary advice, but he also promotes alternative 
therapies and other things of questionable veracity. They found that only 46% 
of his claims were corroborated by science, while 36% were found to have no 
supporting evidence—and 15% were directly contradicted by scientific evidence.
In other words, more than half of what Oz propagates is drivel.
Research confirms it: Dr. Oz dispenses a lot of medical advice with no 
scientific grounding
