An extreme close-up of Oprah Winfrey looking angry graces the cover of Newsweek magazine this week with the headline “Crazy Talk: Oprah, Wacky Cures & You.” The article suggests that Winfrey uses her influence to promote certain health remedies which may be dangerous to viewers, the Associated Press reports.
But Oprah, who was just listed as the second most powerful celebrity by Forbes magazine’s annual listing, insists she is opening up subjects for discussion.
"For 23 years, my show has presented thousands of topics that reflect the human experience, including doctors' medical advice and personal health stories that have prompted conversations between our audience members and their health care providers," Winfrey said in a statement. "I trust the viewers, and I know that they are smart and discerning enough to seek out medical opinions to determine what may be best for them."

This could be even better for the show having these discussions. Being a healthy person speaks more of you know that you have a healthy body outside and inside. There are a lot of things you must consider for you to have it. If you think you are not, then health remedies should be take into account.
