on Dr. Oz today (Tuesday)



Recommended Posts

Just saw a commercial for the Dr. Oz show today. "The big food cover up" Something about a NY Times reporter who uncovered a 'food industry bombshell'. It says - Dr. Oz investigates why we may be addicted to salt, sugar and fat.

Anyway, I am going to record it and thought there might be others out here that would be interested in watching!

I honestly think they put chemicals in that stuff to make us addicted. It sounds conspiratory, but I think it's true!

It is absolutely not a conspiracy theory its REALITY>

If they don;t hook you with salt, fat and sugar they can't sell that product to the masses,

I know when I eat a Cheetos I can;t stop at one or a cookie. and when they say low fat or sugar free I get even more worried about what is in there.

I don't think I've ever successfully eaten less than a half-bag of chips in one go.

I agree. I'm a food aholic and I believe it, just like putting nicotein etc in cigs. These big corporations are out to make money. They don't care about our health. I hate eating nutrasweet now. I've been completely off of it for 6 months and now I have to eat foods with it. It just makes you crave more sweets. I'm really trying to eat healthy, My daughter is vegan and no gmo's etc. off milk and on almond milk....less calories and more Calcium. I will watch it...but I have tried some of Dr Oz weight loss remedies with no luck. Got a cupboard full of various capsules.

It is all about profit! I recently read a book titled "Salt, Sugar, Fat" by Michael Moss....it was all about the way companies find ways to keep us addicted to their products and how they try to hide it.

I agree, not much better than the Tabaco industry!

How can we blame them? We had the power to choose foods for ourselves. They market what people want. If we wanted to eat healthy, the produce isle has never left the grocery store.

True, but so many of those products are dyed, waxed, genetically modified, or otherwise ruined in an attempt to appeal to the customer :(

Unless it is organic, we have NO idea what chemicals they used to grow the produce. :(

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
