I am. I must say in a certain sense, I am.
I also laugh while watching, because it feels like the program presents knowledge from some type of ignorant medical hand outs.
The show runs five times a week for approximately an hour.
It presents 4 doctors that specialize in different medical fields and their advise or orders are related to the field they are presenting.
The four doctors are dressed up in white coats to give us a feeling of professional help.
IS THAT SO?
I watched the program three times so far, and telling the truth the show is very entertaining, in some way. It is same kind of laugh that I express while watching ‘Hidden Camera’.
We usually have a lunch/smoothie/salad break at time of the show and my husband and me have been watching the program together twice and, I am telling you, we laugh!
Of course, watching Monty Python is very entertaining as well, but the difference between Doctor’s and Python is the second one is funny by intention, but the first one presents
frightening level of quality, that makes us laugh with a sarcasm.
IS THE SHOW HEALTH AND WELLNESS RELATED ?
The show is interactive.
We see the public at the studio and ‘patients’ or people with some health problems that call the doctors from their homes and then show up at the show to fix their issues in public.
After yesterday show, I got a feeling that some people have enormous desire to be a tv star.
How otherwise would you want to be on the public eye with such a weird question as : will the coffee shrink my wife’s breasts?! It has to be a despair..
I would say some topics might be considered as health related.
But the question is :
DO THE DOCTOR’S ANSWERS AND ORDERS HAVE AN INTENTION TO REALLY HELP OR JUST PROVIDE A QUICK FIX?
The solutions I have heard so far were :
- for excessive sweating – botox applied under the arm pits
- for getting a fit look – liposuction
- for wrinkles – botox
- advise on which burger is better regarding fat/ sodium/ calories ( Mc’Donalds or some Abby’s crap )
- organic food vs commercial : organic maybe for babies and young people ( meaning if you are over 30 – nobody cares what you eat, you’ll be on drugs anyways )
- to save few cents – green bell pepper over red or yellow ( meaning you are getting less –> unripe green fruit) . The doctor literally took the yellow and red bell pepper out of the peoples hands and gave them green, unripe, more acidic, less nutritious green one !
- you can drink your coffee and if your breast shrunken, one of the doctors who is plastic surgeon can gladly fix them for you!
- the doctor’s advise on fast food : ” If you go to fast food store, that’s ok. Everyone does it. But make sure to make better choices.”
My point on this one is :
- It is not ok to go to fast food stores
- It is not ok to say such thing in public as a doctor
- not everyone goes to fast foods and I know many people , including me, that did not go there even once!
- you can not make better choices at the place of dead flesh, toxins and terrible addictions
The preview of the show ( you can check it HERE ) gives a feeling that we will be watching some kind of violence related show. Police reports of latest murders or some devastating political news.
I would expect some nice calming, ‘green’ style of the show and a tv ad’s, but I am sure that it is not the intention of a program that wants to raise a fear to sell some products, brands or botox treatments.
At the beginning I said that I am scared of ” The Doctor’s’ show.
With full responsibility I can say that ‘ The Doctors ‘show can not have any impact on mine health/nutrition/wellness choices. But it can on others.
I am not a doctor.
All the doctors from the show have their MDs ( MEDICAL DISINFORMATION stamp ? ).
The difference between us is obvious : I don’t watch for FDAs approvals of whatever but I do listen to my healthy, wise, alert body’s approval and intuition.
And I try to gain knowledge beyond the boring, thousand time discussed topic of a fish oil and mercury.
I see the danger in this show. A big one.
People seek for health advise and all they get is another drug prescription, liposuction, quick ‘outside’ fix. And most of them will do whatever Mr. MD will say.
There is no talk about prevention, nutrition whatsoever.
Watching this clip-like show that jumps from one topic to the other gives more misinformation than it should be allowed.
People don’t know how to deal with their bodies and will swallow doctor’s order without questioning.
And because the doctors know that this dependency on somebody’s advise exists, they use it.
Instead of educating people how to take care of the body and how to TAKE THE HEALTH INTO PEOPLES OWN HANDS, they manipulate and sell.
One thing I appreciate is that the doctors of the show are not overweight. Like Mr. Health and Weight Advisor – Atkins.
Here is to your health and success!
