Dr. Oz and the apple juice thing

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months

I've heard a few news stories in the last 2 days that imply that Dr. Oz was onto something with his arsenic testing... still nothing conclusive enough to say stop drinking it, though.

And here I thought he was just a nut trying to get publicity  Indifferent

    If Dr. Oz is a nut, then so is Consumer Reports. Just an FYI, Gerber was one of the brands tested that contained arsenic. The arsenic isn't an organic type as previously suggested in response to Dr. Oz's findings.

    Edit: I didn't look at your link until after I posted and realized yours was also from Consumer Reports. Sorry!

    I don't think him possibly being on to something with this subject is mutually exclusive with him being a publicity-seeking nut.


    True. I don't really know anything about him though, so I don't know how much of a nut he is.

    Yep- he's right. (nut or no nut) He's a Big purist. (is that a word?)

    I'll clarify- I do believe he speaks the truth. I always liked him on Oprah and do believe he means well. I just think he can be a bit over the top.  Past posts have flamed him, so I wanted to revisit the subject now that there's been more research.

    This was on our news last night as well.  At this point, I see no need to give LO juice, so its not really an issue. It's something I'll be watching though.
