Dr. Gupta Shown in Unauthorized AI Ads 5,663 views Jul 5, 2026 In July 2026, online users searched for information regarding whether Dr. Sanjay Gupta created or endorsed Cardio Flush drops as a "blood flow solution." Those users also looked for Cardio Flush reviews, hoping to find credible information about the product — scam or legit... Dr. Sanjay Gupta never endorsed Cardio Flush drops or any miracle-like "blood flow solution" for swollen angles, fatigue and shortness of breath. The Cardio Flush scam first began in social media ads or website ads. Those ads led to a website displaying a lengthy video presentation on a fake CNN website falsely claiming Gupta created or endorsed a brand new mixture or recipe for blood flow. No recipe is ever revealed. The recipe is a scam tactic to keep consumers watching the scam videos. At the end of the video, scammers offer bottles of Cardio Flush drops. No doctors, hospitals, universities or famous people ever endorsed Cardio Flush drops for blood flow or a "blood flow ritual" or "secret." No credible positive Cardio Flush reviews existed online, either. Scammers created either deepfake AI or fully AI depictions of Gupta and other people for the lengthy video presentation appearing on the scam website. Scams similar to Cardio Flush often secretly feature subscription charges of hundreds of dollars a month, promote fake money-back guarantees and display other red flags. Consumers who fell for this scam should call their bank or credit card company right away to report the fraud. Don't trust online-only supplement offers. Make an appointment with a real doctor in your town. Seek legitimate medical advice. Also, victims should file a complaint with the Internet Crime Complaint Center via IC3.gov. In your complaint, include details from your emails or regular mail, as well as your bank or credit card statements, such as any email addresses, phone numbers or mailing addresses that appear — especially the company name and phone number listed on your online financial statements next to the charges. You never know... your complaint might lead to justice being served. 3/ FactCheck by Barchart.com https://www.barchart.com/story/news/3594604/cardioflush-reviews-complaints-2026-is-this-the-daily-heart-support-formula-buyers-have-been-searching-for • What it suggests: the footage is described as likely AI-generated or manipulated - a pattern separately reported across several similarly structured supplement campaigns using the same claimed-endorser approach, including a closely related "CardioFlush Drops" liquid variant covered elsewhere (a different product from the one reviewed in this article - see the disambiguation note in the verification checklist below). This article did not independently locate any statement, interview, or verified record in which Dr. Gupta endorses CardioFlush (a search that specifically looked for one). If the video you watched named him or used his likeness, treat that appearance as unverified - not confirmed by this article, and specifically flagged as likely unauthorized by multiple independent reviewers who investigated the same campaign. Separating what's real from what's marketing matters here. Elevated blood pressure and artery health are genuine, well-studied areas of cardiology, and general concepts like flavonoids or antioxidants supporting vascular health do have legitimate research behind them at the ingredient level. But "reversing high blood pressure" with a "ritual" that "dissolves arterial cement" is not standard medical terminology, isn't a claim this article can verify against any confirmed CardioFlush ingredient (since no ingredient panel is available - see below), and shouldn't be read as equivalent to, or a substitute for, medical treatment for high blood pressure or any cardiovascular condition. If you take blood pressure medication, this article's plain advice is: don't change your prescription based on this product or its marketing without talking to your doctor first.
