Seen the “Dr. Oz pink gelatin trick” ad on Facebook, TikTok, or YouTube? I clicked through the whole funnel and broke it down step by step.

In this video, I show how the ad promises a “free” weight-loss recipe with simple kitchen ingredients… but never actually gives the recipe. Instead, it sends you through a fake news-style page, a long deepfaked/re-voiced video, and finally a checkout page asking for your credit card to buy a so-called “Pink Program” / “Program Gelatin Pink” for $39.

The “Dr. Oz pink gelatin trick” recipe does not appear, and the whole funnel looks like a scam designed to get your card details and sell you a mystery product.

If you’ve seen this ad, comment where it showed up (Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, etc.).

“Based preloads can be a practical tool for bariatric patients who struggle with portion control,” says Sean Thompson, a Northampton-based dietitian with a 4.99-star rating across 385+ reviews. “But I always tell clients: the foundation is still protein-first meals and mindful eating. Think of the gelatin trick as training wheels, not the whole bike. And if you have kidney concerns, check with your doctor — excessive gelatin can be protein overkill.”

Sean specializes in accessible, evidence-based nutrition for individuals with disabilities and those navigating post-surgical diets. She holds dual master's degrees from Tufts University and approaches care without a weight-centric lens.
