He said data shouldn't stop patients from testing out things like raspberry ketone — a "miracle in a bottle to burn your fat" — even if it's never been tested on people, according to Slate. "I recognize that oftentimes they don't have the scientific muster to present as fact," Oz said at a U.S. Senate hearing, adding that he "personally believes in the items I talk about in my show." "But, nevertheless, I give my audience the advice I give my family all the time. I give my family these products, specifically the ones you mentioned. I'm comfortable with that part."
