Dr. Mehmet Oz<\/a> shamed a Fox News host on air for keeping salty \u201cnon-MAHA\u201d snacks on set after lecturing him about the importance of combating obesity.<\/p>\n

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services administrator threatened to \u201ccall Secretary [Robert F.] Kennedy\u201d on Sunday Briefing host Peter Doocy after discovering the green room was stocked with nothing but chips.<\/p>\n

Bending down to pull several snack bags from under the broadcast desk, Oz fumed, \u201cBy the way, your green room\u2014this is non-MAHA.\u201c<\/p>\n

\u201cAll these snacks. This is all they have back there, this and water,\u201d Oz said as he waved the chips at him while obscuring the brands\u2019 names.<\/p>\n

The studio\u2019s lack of healthy options seemed to fuel the doctor, who continued: \u201cGetting people to eat better and exercise, this is Secretary Kennedy\u2019s primary mission.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe reason he took the job is to get MAHA into the agenda for the American people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Dr.The doctor had brought a cache of snacks from the green room and hidden them under the table to present to the host. Fox News <\/p>\n

The cause du jour of Oz\u2019s appearance was GLP-1 drugs\u2014a class of medications including Ozempic and Mounjaro\u2014which a record number of Americans are taking<\/a> this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re making these medications affordable, which is the most important thing. We don\u2019t want to force you to take them\u2014and only people who really do have concerns,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor example, obesity leads to cancer, so being obese is a problem. Obesity by itself, Peter, drives probably a quarter of all healthcare expenses. So if you really want to drop the cost of healthcare in America, get healthy\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n

Oz added: \u201cIf you can\u2019t lose weight by diet and exercise, then I do think taking these GLP-1 drugs is beneficial. They\u2019re rapidly progressing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oz and Doocy\u2014the son of fellow Fox News star Steve Doocy\u2014finished the interview with a bizarre statistic from a psychologist claiming that 75% of his patients have \u201cTrump Derangement Syndrome,\u201d before the chips came out of hiding for the second time.<\/p>\n

\u201cDr. Oz, thank you so much for being here, and we will make sure that by the time you get back to the green room,\u201c Doocy said, before shouting to staff: \u201cCould somebody get rid of the non-MAHA snacks, please, before Dr. Oz is back out there?\u201d<\/p>\n

Oz daintily lifted the bags of chips by the corners and waved them, demanding: \u201cReally, really? Is that the best we can do?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, it\u2019s a new show. Come back next month, I\u2019ll call in some new snacks,\u201d the host joked, with Oz threatening in response: \u201cI\u2019m calling Secretary Kennedy from the green room and telling on you.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dr. Mehmet Oz shamed a Fox News host on air for keeping salty \u201cnon-MAHA\u201d snacks on set after…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":287765,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[49,48,56163,75,24558,5651,348],"class_list":["post-287764","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-dr-oz","tag-entertainment","tag-fox-news","tag-maha","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/287764","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=287764"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/287764\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/287765"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=287764"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=287764"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=287764"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
