Oprah sets the record straight on weight loss gummies

Stop hitting Oprah Winfrey up for her weight loss gummies — because they don’t exist.

A frustrated Winfrey took to Instagram Sunday to set the record straight about slimming products bearing her name and image.

“And so it happened to me again today. A woman came up to me and said, ‘Can you help me get your weight loss gummies,’ ” said the 68-year-old media mogul.

“And I said, ‘Ma’am, I don’t have anything to do with weight loss gummies. And let me just tell you, you’re the fifth person this week to mention it’. So I am going to address it.”

In the short video, captioned “Fraud alert! Please don’t buy any weight loss gummies with my picture or name on them,” Winfrey warned her 21.5 million followers to avoid products popping up as social media ads and fake websites.

The campaign hawking the bogus supplements have seemingly been effective because Winfrey has been repeatedly asked about them.

“It’s coming to my attention many times over. Somebody out there misusing my name even sending emails to people advertising weight loss gummies. I have nothing to do with weight loss gummies or diet pills. And I don’t want you all taken advantage of by people misusing my name.”

Winfrey is no stranger to the weight loss industry. Not only has she publicly struggled with the number on her scale throughout her long career, she also owns a stake in WW, the company formerly known as Weight Watchers.

However, the billionaire wants to send a message:

“I have no weight loss gummies.”
