Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal, Liver Doc Clash Over 'Gravitational Ageing' Claims

  • Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal and liver specialist Dr. Cyriac Abby Philips (The Liver Doc) are in a public dispute over Goyal's 'Gravitational Theory of Ageing' and associated wellness product.
  • Dr. Philips labeled Goyal's theory as 'pseudoscience' and 'misinformation,' stating the product lacks scientific basis.
  • Goyal claimed Dr. Philips declined a private Zoom discussion to explain the theory, leading Goyal to call the doctor 'bullsh**' and lose respect.
  • Dr. Philips confirmed declining the private meeting, insisting evidence should be presented publicly, not in a one-on-one.
  • The debate highlights a broader concern about unverified wellness narratives and misinformation in India, with Dr. Philips comparing it to 'a fat band-aid stuck to the temple'.

Why It Matters: A public spat between Zomato CEO and Liver Doc exposes concerns over unverified wellness claims.
