Ankur Warikoo responded to Dr Philips and said that he was not endorsing the use of the supplements which he uses. He tweeted, “These were not my recommendations, instead a list of all that I consume.” Warikoo added, “I work with a certified trainer and it’s possible he is mis-informed.”
In response to Ankur Warikoo, Dr Philips further wrote, "I did not see a disclaimer, but instead it was direct advice based on anecdotal matters that you felt helped you. You could have merely mentioned your lifestyle changes instead of providing links to purchase supplements. That is not how medical science works."
