"Don't Eat Carrot Cake": Dr. Oz Warns as Medicaid Cuts Loom

Following the passage of his 2026 budget bill by President Donald Trump, major reductions to Medicaid appear likely—and Dr. Mehmet Oz is offering guidance to people worried about what lies ahead: avoid eating carrot cake.

Fox Business interviewed Oz on Monday regarding his position as administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The former television physician stated that initiatives such as Medicare and Medicaid "represented a commitment to the American public to provide support if you face financial difficulties or encounter challenges due to aging and requiring medical attention."

"Everyone is united in this," Oz said to Stuart Varney.

We will support you when you require assistance with Medicare and Medicaid, yet it's also important for you to maintain good health. Stay energetic. Strive to achieve your maximum capabilities so you can fully realize your inherent, divine potential for living a complete and wholesome life. For instance, avoid eating carrot cake—opt for genuine nutrition instead.

Sarcastically, Dr. Oz handed Varney a carrot cake positioned between them.

Varney motioned toward him, laughing, "but you've handed me..."

Dr. Oz mentioned he was "kidding around" by referring to it as the MAHA Medi-cake. MAHA is the latest catchphrase from Trump administration officials, representing "Make America Healthy Again."

"I didn't have luck finding a nutritious cake, so I went with the nearest option, a carrot cake," said Oz.
