Wednesday’s interview comes as the health of both Trump and his opponent, Hillary Clinton, have taken center stage in the 2016 election. “She is recovering well with antibiotics and rest …she continues to remain healthy and fit to serve as president of the United States”, it said. “Well, I bet he won’t release them”, Oz said.
A gastroenterological specialist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York, Bornstein circulated a letter previous year attesting to Trump’s “extraordinary” health and said Trump would be “the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency”. The Presidential candidate has previously said he likes fast food, and though there were initial unnamed audience members who told media outlets that he had said much the same on Oz, it was not in the final version of the show.
In the last few days, Trump and his campaign have repeatedly criticized Clinton for failing to provide specific policy proposals.
Senate minority leader Harry Reid is questioning Trump’s weight and former Obama adviser David Plouffe, tweeted that as a candidate, Trump would rival the portly President William Taft who weighed in at 354lb (160kg) when he was inaugurated in 1909.
Bornstein goes on to list aspects of Trump’s medical profile, including Trump’s lone hospitalization. He said that when he’s with the 39-year-old Brady, “I feel I’m the same age as him”.
Trump’s blood sugar was normal. Trump’s level of triglycerides, which are a type of fat in blood, is 61 milligrams per deciliter. “His thyroid and liver function tests were normal”. According to NBC News’s Katy Tur, Trump reportedly believes that his wild hand gestures and full-time campaigning constitute “exercise”. A colonoscopy done in 2013 was normal, according to Bornstein.
Trump’s testosterone level is 441.6.
Trump, who is 70, said that he has stayed active and enjoys playing golf. “I have it right here”.
The clueless tycoon sent out a survey to backers Thursday in which he explains that he simply wants “to be confident that I defend the issues you care about”.
The letter doesn’t disclose other information typically included in health reports, such as details about Trump’s eating and exercise habits and vaccination history. His campaign advisers insisted earlier Wednesday morning that he would not reveal health information on the show.
Donald Trump is turning to his own supporters for help on how to best debate Hillary Clinton.
For all the controversy Clinton’s diagnosis aroused regarding her so-called secrecy, the fact of the matter is despite suffering from a potentially severe illness, Clinton attempted to shelve her doctor’s guidelines and follow through with what she saw as her duty to the American public. “If I weren’t happily married and, ya know, her father”.
“Next time you see Trump rant on television, think about all the children listening across America”.
