Dr. Oz Lawsuit: Fat-Burning Supplement Doesn't Work

On Tuesday, television personality Dr. Oz, as well as the company that makes the “fat-burning” supplements he promotes, were hit with a proposed class action lawsuit alleging there is no scientific proof to back up the supplements’ claims. The plaintiff states that Dr. Oz knowingly misled his viewers by endorsing a product that he knew didn’t perform and wants compensation for those who were “tricked” into buying the weight loss products. Affected supplements are those sold by Labrada Bodybuilding Nutrition, Inc. and include the Raspberry Ketones Metabolic Enhancer.
