Can you trust diet programs developed by doctors?

[Freddy]

Are diet programs that have been designed by doctors any more trustworthy than those that have been created by those who have no medical background?

[Lady Greenfairy]

Not necessarily. Just because a doctor crated a diet program doesn't mean that it is A - good, B - effective or C - safe. It's best to consult with your own healthcare provider before you make any changes to your diet to lose weight.

No. I wouldn't trust the advice of any doctor except for your own doctor. Dr. Oz is an actual doctor and look at the bad advice he gives!!

[Freddy]

Ya, that's pretty much what I thought. It really is disappointing that you can't even trust people who have a medial license.
