Fussy, Dr. Oz & The Blue Dude

Fussy Watches Oprah So You Don’t Have To!

Y’all know I get all excited everytime Dr. Oz visits my show  Oprah. I am guaranteed to learn something new and get some supa-fab bloggy inspiration. This show was packed full of future bloggy goodness. Today let’s learn about the man I like to affectionately call -The Blue Dude.

Blue dude is blue. He’ll always be blue. He accidentally turned himself blue. He’s actually a super nice blue dude. His whole story is here.

He started drinking lots of Colloidal Silver and using it on his skin for a rash. Dr. Oz explained it all but I was trying to eat my Banana Nut Crunch cereal (supa-yum) and got a little queasy. Bleech.

The gist of it is if you drink the silver solution (which has been used as an effective treatment for ages) you will turn and stay blue.

Now we know the secret of the Smurfs!

Because Blue Dude is such a nice guy, and is now stuck being blue forever, I would love to suggest a new career path.

I give you the new and improved Blue Man Dude Group!

Love, Fussy

I love how Dr. Oz was looking at his scalp and pulled his collar back to look at the skin on his neck!

Holy crap. That is just unbelievable! Good grief I can’t even imagine.
My sister-in-law turned her baby orange feeding him only carrot and sweet potato baby food. He looked like she dunked him in some bad self-tanner. Strangers would comment in public – is he TAN??
It went away when his diet became more varied.

Too funny! What a bummer to be blue. I guess he needs to find and marry red gal, so they can have purple kids.

It’s not easy being green. Or blue.
I have a hard enough time picking out what to wear sometimes… without trying to fit blue skin into the equation. I mean, would I always have to wear blue shoes?

I didn’t see the Blue Man Group thing coming. Hilarious.
Freaky story, though. Can you imagine? What do you do, once you’re blue?

Kim February 20, 2008 at 11:43 am

I can’t stop looking at him. That is UNBELIEVEABLE. How do you NOT realize you are turning blue? Creepy.

Oh Wow! We actualy have some silver here that I use on cuts and scrapes. I had no idea it could do this!

If you drink *too much* or put it on your skin *too often*, this can happen. Wasn’t the guy drinking a bottle a day or some ridiculous amount? It’s been a known side effect for a very long time; it’s all in moderation!

I read about this guy in People. What a strange story!

Fussy knows the most interesting people!
But your title “Fussy, Dr. Oz & The Blue Dude” sounds like “The Muppet Show – A Very Special Episode.”

You all crack me up. Thanks, Fuss, for watching O so I don’t have to!!!

Megan February 20, 2008 at 2:30 pm

that was a funny story, but I feel the need to share that it takes A LOT of this product to do this. I’ve been an herbalist for years, and have used Colloidal Silver for MANY reasons. It’s great for pinkeye, just squirt right in there. ALso, it will go away pretty quickly when he stops using it.
I just think natural medicine gets a bad rap for some reason, (why is it the media is only interested in the extreme and crazy people) so I just wanted to clarify… :)
I LOVE your site btw

And I’m just not sure how you wouldn’t notice that was happening before it got to that point.

Is this for real???? Our Oprah episodes (not that I very often watch them but Dr Oz just happened to be on the episode I saw a bit of the other day) are way behind what you get in the US.

Doh! I keep forgetting to tell you. I flung you some pink bling yesterday. If you’d like it that is. Details are on my blog. :)

Ok- so I watched Oprah today totally expecting to see you make an appearance! Really. And you were going to explain to her that it is not Friday yet and it’s called Frumpadinka, not shlumpadinka. Geesh.
I do think it is very impressive that Oprah is following your act. Congrats!

Alesha February 20, 2008 at 6:37 pm

The strange thing is that the Blue man keeps overdosing on the CS so that he will stay blue. If he quit taking it he would eventually not be blue anymore.Oh well I guess he wants to be Papa Smurf to each his own….

I rarely watch Oprah, and I’m glad to know that you’re doing it for me, Fussy. But, I did happen to sit down with a glass of iced tea yesterday and flip on the TV and, there, the blue man was!! I, too, thought about a potential future for him with the blue man group and appreciate your suburb photo shop skills to illustrate.
Seriously, though, I did feel sorry for him, though he seemed to have a great attitude about it. I kept hoping through the segment that it would be a reversible condition if only he would stop with the silver.
But, no. Dr. Oz said that he has permanently tatooed himself, inside and out, and he’s stuck this way.
The horrifying thing is that I had a good friend who tried to get me hooked on colloidal silver. Glad I didn’t choose that route!! I’m sure that you have to take lots and lots of it before you turn blue. Just the same, I’m not so sure about it.

One of the Canadian prime ministers had a blue wife – I can’t remember which one, but I remember reading about her in a textbook in gradeschool. WEIRD!

If you drink colloidal gold, do you turn into King Midas?

Heather February 20, 2008 at 10:09 pm

This really is sad and funny all at the same time. I do think it’s important though to understand that this is a VERY rare side effect. The man was making his own and drinking it basically by the gallon. We’ve used this for years and it really does work well. We use it for strep throat, cuts, rashes, etc… There have been some very impressive studies done by leading Universities and it actually has been proved to work much better than antibiotics. Like all good things – moderation is key. Let the Blue Man serve as a lesson. =)

I saw him the other day on one of the morning shows. I am so bizarre, but I think this is pretty neat! I’m with some of the others, though….don’t know how he didn’t notice he was turning blue before it got to this point.

Wow – this guy is something. I don’t know whether to be amazed, shocked or what – LOL! I can’t imagine being blue forever…

I turned my baby’s nose orange from feeder her to many carrots and sweet potatoes. My dad thought it was the funniest thing. He was a little disappointed when it went away. lol

I would imagine his poor wife must of thought he was dead, the first morning he turned blue. Geesh….

This guy was on Today Show about a month ago sharing his story and what was mind-blowing to me was that he said he was still taking the stuff that made him turn blue in the first place. It was just crazy! Weird!

Kristen February 21, 2008 at 5:57 pm

This isn’t about the blue guy but it is about Oprah. Did you see the whole neighborhood “fightin’ the frump” yesterday? It was a pretty great show! I couldn’t help but think of you!

I have a friend who was getting Collidial Silver injections for CFS/FM and she said – “suddenly” they stopped doing the procedures when they went in. She finally figured out why when she found and article about this man on the internet. She ran the story on her blog a couple of months ago.
Obviously this man over used the product (DUH) but doctor’s were (and maybe still are) using it as a treatment plan for some illnesses. Scarey, eh?

Karen February 23, 2008 at 12:08 am

This man lives in a town not far from me. Though I haven’t been lucky enough to see him walking down the street…
So weird!
