Washington Free Beacon By Chuck RossÂ
Dr. Mehmet Oz coauthored a book touting the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine with the head of a Beijing university controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.
Written by Oz and Beijing University of Chinese Medicine president Anlong Xu, Yin Yang You hit shelves on Oct. 11, weeks before Oz launched his Senate campaign in Pennsylvania. The book promotes traditional Chinese medicine, an alternative medical practice that has been met with skepticism in the West.
Oz’s collaboration with Xu shows how the celebrity doctor’s drive to make money in China may have helped Beijing’s propaganda efforts. Oz, who has called on President Joe Biden to be “tougher” on Beijing, has made millions of dollars in the Chinese market from his television show and through a sponsorship deal with Usana Health, a wellness company with a heavy presence in China. Usana was a longtime sponsor of Oz’s television show and published Yin Yang You.
The Chinese Communist Party has in recent years embraced traditional Chinese medicine as part of its soft-power initiatives. Chinese president Xi Jinping last year urged the development and export of traditional Chinese medicine, which he suggested could help fight COVID-19. Oz praised Xi at a book event in September for embracing traditional Chinese medicine, saying the Chinese Communist Party leader has “opened this portal” for Usana to sell health products in the Chinese market.
THere is something about OZ that I don’t trust … he makes me think of the Tea Party movement .
All the baby boomers were all ok with the direction of the country .. UNTIL the 2008 crash and their 401k and retirement went down any were from 20 -50%
NOW there is an emergency NOW there is a problem with the country .
Patriots for Profit . Not much better than the guys that sell books … Cause I care !!
Oz was idling along ok .. TV star – Inventor – Dr. .. then he got hit in the face too.
Just got a ” feeling” he’s the same mold as the Tea Party Patriots …. money is the motivator
