A Hearty Life may never be the same if I’ve got to quit using “ask your doctor” as a way to cover my a** after making some sort of health recommendation. “Ask your doctor” has made the 2007 List of Banished Words.
ASK YOUR DOCTOR — The chewable vitamin morphine of marketing.
“Ask your doctor if ‘fill in the blank’ is right for you! Heck, just take one and see if it makes you ‘fill in the blank’ or get deathly ill.” — R.C. Amundson, Oakville, Washington.
“I don’t think my doctor would appreciate my calling him after seeing a TV ad.” — Peter B. Liveright, Lutherville, Maryland.
“Healthy food” was banned too.
