It provides personalized information to the site's users based on their responses to the RealAge Test, the company's health risk assessment tool, and offers a clinical decision support tool, AskMD.

Dr Oz https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mehmet_Oz

Mehmet Cengiz Öz (Turkish: [mehˈmet dʒenˈɟiz øz]; born June 11, 1960),[1] known professionally as Dr. Oz, is a Turkish American[2][3][4] television personality, cardiothoracic surgeon, Columbia University professor, pseudoscience promoter,[5] and author.

Oz came to general prominence with appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show beginning in 2004, and later on Larry King Live and other TV programs. In 2009, The Dr. Oz Show, a daily television program focusing on medical issues and personal health, was launched by Winfrey's Harpo Productions and Sony Pictures.

He is a proponent of alternative medicine, and has been criticized by physicians, government officials, and publications, including Popular Science and The New Yorker, for giving non-scientific advice and promoting pseudoscience. In a Senate hearing on weight loss scams, Senator Claire McCaskill chided Oz, saying: "The scientific community is almost monolithic against you in terms of the efficacy of the three products you call miracles".[8] In 2014 the British Medical Journal examined over 400 medical or health recommendations from 40 episodes of his program and found that only 46% of his claims were supported by reputable research, while 15% of his claims contradicted medical research and the remainder of Oz's advice were either vague banalities or unsupported by research.

Dr Oz sued for weight loss supplement he claimed was a 'revolutionary fat buster with no exercise, no diet, no effort'

Hyde Park's Associate Professor Jennifer Stack '03 was a guest on the popular Dr. Oz Show. Stack, a registered dietician who teaches Nutrition at the CIA, was asked to create three delicious $5 healthy meals for home cooks. The program's four million viewers received great tips from Stack, including a recipe for a Veggie Pasta Pie that combines an Italian Fritatta with a Jewish Noodle Kugel.

NIGHTCLUBS :MARQUEE

https://www.voat.co/v/pizzagate/2241797/11070291

There is a Pizza place hidden in the Cosmo hotel which is not directly advertised anywhere. It is known simply as "secret pizza." I've been there before and as far as I can tell there is no child-raping going on, it's just a pizza place that's kind of hidden away. The Cosmo is set up a little differently from other casinos, rather than being spread out, it's got a casino on the first floor and then 4 or 5 floors above it of restaurants, shops and the Marquee nightclub. It's also a five-star hotel that may not want a low-brow slice bar for the commoners, so it's easy to hide on one of the higher floors and the fact that it doesn't fit with the rest of the ambiance explains why it's hidden (along with some reverse-psychology marketing).

From 2012: "Where is entrance to secret tunnel under strip?"

Trip Advisor question: I heard there is a large two lane tunnel deep under the [Vegas] strip that only the rich and powerful and certain suite guests are allowed to use? A guy named Eddie told me about it.

First reply: i think its behind the secret pizza place at Cosmo
