She was on for so many years she had to have some bad ones. But for me, learning about Eckart Tolle and his teachings changed my life in the best way possible.

Oprah is a good person and I do not think she should be judged by these two creeps that snuck by. Besides, a lot of times people change with fame and fortune. They probably were not so bad when she first introduced them.

Heck - Sea Buckthorn berries were my herbal vitamin pill in a berry when I lived in Romania, and they really worked and gave me lots of energy and vitality. They are very rich in vitamin C and bioflavonoids, Vitamin A and carotenoid compounds, and a profile of just about all the omega fatty acids, with great anti-inflammatory effects. And I have also derived benefit from many of the other natural supplements that were mentioned in this video. Although they might not have been the miracle cures that Dr. Oz claimed they were, those who are scientific skeptics tend to greatly underestimate the importance of things like good natural nutrition in the maintenance of health and the prevention of disease. Perhaps the most real accusations made in this video involve the political impropriety of Dr. Oz not actually living in Pennsylvania.

me to be dupped and spend my money on a worthless pill

Saying something is a good supplement is one thing. It is very clear just by his words that he was a liar and just hawked these products to make money; which is even worse since he is a damn medical doctor!

from his pill. He falsely promoted it as a weight loss miracle pill.

He deserves this video.
