Donald Trump released medical records for the first time to Dr. Mehmet Oz on “The Dr. Oz Show” detailing the results of his most recent physical examination. “He does not use tobacco products or alcohol”.

His blood pressure is 116 over 70, blood sugar is 99, and his triglyceride level, a type of fat in blood, is 61. “That, at a height of 6’3”, puts him at the high-end of what is considered overweight – just shy of being obese. “It’s insane”, the 70-year-old Trump said of 39-year-old Brady.
“Should I do it?” he responded to Oz, when asked if he would reveal his medical records – also showing a letter from Dr Harold Bornstein of Lenox Hill Hospital, who has been Trump’s physician for the past 35 years.
In a September 15 appearance on “The Dr. Oz Show”, Dr. Mehmet Oz asked Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump about his stamina, and whether he’d have the vigor to serve as the nation’s oldest-ever president.
Dr. Lisa Bardack said she has evaluated Clinton several times since then and said the former Secretary of State continues to improve.
The letter said Trump had an echocardiogram and a chest X-ray but did not disclose why those tests were performed.
He concludes that Trump “Is in excellent physical health”. I really enjoy doing it. During a rally in Canton, Ohio, Trump said: “You think Hillary would be able to stand up here for an hour and do this?”.
Oz said that Trump’s doctor found him to be overweight.
Donald Trump approached the presumably germ-free stage of The Dr. Oz Show on Thursday with a degree of solemnity. Meyers also said that due to double standards, the rules are different for Clinton and Donald Trump.
In an interview that aired Thursday on “The Dr. Oz Show”, Trump says he’d like to lose a few pounds, and that his exercise consists of giving campaign speeches, which he calls “a lot of work”.
Trump released a separate letter from Bornstein in December, in which the physician said that his patient, if elected, would “unequivocally” be “the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency”. She said Trump’s rigorous campaign schedule showed his stamina.
The medications which Trump is listed as taking are a lipid-lowering agent and a low dose of aspirin.
“Had I known I was going to be a politician, Howard Stern is a friend of mine, I wouldn’t have done his show”, Trump said.
“I don’t know, folks”. And, if you believe that, I’ve got some Dr. Oz-approved hot pepper jelly to sell you.
