    A patient is using a new type of therapy to help her loose weight. How could you determine if the therapy is fraud?

    Is the patient paying for the therapy, is it working?

    Has the therapy been proven to work? Are there any studies to back it up? Is it actually working for her?

    Weight loss is like (noses) everyone has one and has an opinion about it. Some people would swear that Akin diet is all bull, others swear by it.

    Most diet pills have been proved worthless but they are still sold by the millions.

    Books come out every year by watermelon or cabbage or ice cream diet.

    Can you tell us more about the specific situation.

    What is your relationship, what is the age of patient, is it hurting their health
