My family was giving me a hard time for calling Dr. Woo.....sorry Dr. Oz, a quack for peddling that bullshit on TV the other day. He was talking to some guy peddling a book claiming carbs and glutens were the reason behind every known disease to man from Parkinson's disease to Alzheimer's.

But then again, every time my family has that show on that quack is peddling some sort of bullshit woo or another. How did he ever get a MD?
