Anti-aging shopping list.
Today, the best remedies may actually be in your grocery store and powdered collagen.
It's promising to do everything from improving your sleep to making you feel young and vibrant.
Is it really effective?
And Molly Sims reveals the fastest meal prep strategy ever.
It's called the 2221 plan.
Coming up next.
Oh, oh, oh.
Are you ready to say some lives today?
Yeah!
you Oh, oh, oh, oh.
I love you, Dr. Oz.
The new powdered collagen trend, and it is showing up everywhere from YouTube, it's on Facebook, it's hitting your Instagram pages.
It's promising to do everything from improving your sleep, which we can all use a little bit better, to actually making you feel young and vibrant.
Some say it's the wrinkle fighter that works from the inside out.
But here's the question.
Is it really effective?
Now that question has started a civil.
war, a big one in medicine.
So today we've asked one of collagen's biggest champions, bulletproof guru Dave Ashbury, who adds it to his own coffee every day to give us his opinion.
And now I'm going to tell you what I think, the match.
How are you?
I'm great, doctor Oz.
Got the gloves on already.
Goes well with the jacket, by the way.
Oh, thank you.
So starting from the very beginning, collagen.
What is it?
Collagen is the major building block protein in your body.
Your fascia, your connective tissues, your tendons, your joints, your skin, your hair, it's all made of this special protein that we forgot to keep eating.
Why are you wearing purple gloves?
I thought they just looked good.
But more importantly, because we're going to be looking at some real collagen here.
Real collagen.
Real collagen.
Is that hard to find?
It's not hard to find, but it's hard to eat.
Okay, let's.
What do you have here?
Oh my goodness.
What is that?
This is a leg of lamb.
Now you're a doctor, so you could certainly dissect this, I think, better than I could.
But look what's going on here.
This is a tendon, and this is the part we normally leave on the.
Oh, yeah, this is the leg.
So that's the leg of lamb, literally.
So you have a tendon here.
Tendons, of course, attached to bones.
Ligaments are here as well.
So all this fascia, this is just the stuff that holds us together, the casein that holds us together.
Oh, there's a knee here.
Ah.
You see the knee joint?
Can you all appreciate that?
And there are ligaments here, like the kind you might tear in your knee.
Oh my goodness.
They're thick, aren't they?
They're super thick, but they're chewy.
It's hard to eat that part of the leg of lamb.
So if you want to go to the dietary root, what are the sources of collagen?
I mean, this you could cook up, I guess, but no one is going to eat a whole leg of lamb.
Right, and mostly you're going to eat the muscle, which doesn't have collagen in it, because that's where the steak is, all the nice meat we like.
So you'd have to make a bone broth out of what's left after this, and most people don't do that anymore.
No, I've heard of it, but we don't do that.
So I've got two members of my bike club here.
Let's ask them what they would eat.
Welcome, both of you.
How are you?
How are you?
Okay, so Dave is full of demos, Dave.
May I expose this?
Absolutely.
These are the options that Dave says you can eat for collagen.
Here they are.
Oh.
Ugh.
So you got tripe.
This is what is, oh, this is, this is, this is tail.
Oxtail.
Yeah, this is oxtail.
Do you see that?
You can wiggle.
That has collagen.
These are Pig's feet?
Pig's feet, yeah.
I've had these in Chinese food.
Then we have, oh my goodness, look at these.
Chicken feet.
Which of these would you eat?
Definitely the chicken., that's too obvious.
No.
Like, of these, which one would you eat?
The chicken feed.
Chicken feed?
Yeah, I've had that before, actually.
Have you had oxtail?
Never.
I've had oxtail soup.
I'm not sure how much oxtail is in oxtail soup.
Yeah.
I don't know, this doesn't seem very easy to do.
So, that's part of the problem is that if we had a lot of collagen in animals, we have a lot of collagen in us, but how do you actually eat it?
Because I don't think most of us would like to live our lives having pig skin and just the skin part of the chicken leg.
And most of the rest of this is not part of our routine.
Correct.
So stay tuned, because that's what Dave is here.
He's the ultimate hacker.
He's going to hack this for us.
So, you've made a little demo here.
Please share with us how we should be getting your collagen.
My favorite way to get collagen is to take it in a powdered form that has no taste.
It mixes easily and you can get more of that than you're going to get from eating chicken feed, which just don't work very Well, where does it come from, this collagen?
This comes from grass fed cows.
And what that means is that you're getting cows that ate what cows are supposed to eat, and you're getting a collagen that absorbs into your body.
And the way I do this in the morning is I make my bulletproof coffee, which is grass fed butter blended with coffee made with special beans and an extract of coconut oil.
You blend this up, and then you just add the collagen, you can't even tell it's in there.
And then suddenly you're getting twenty grams of protein that helps you to build your joints and helps you build your skinin and just to feel good.
And does this have the collagen in it?
This does.
And full disclosure, Dave likes this stuff so much he has his own brand of collagen, which you sell on your website.
And I'm okay with that.
I just want to make sure everyone understands that.
But it also makes you expert in this.
So I appreciate you sharing this.
That's actually pretty good.
I don't taste the collagen, but I taste the coconut.
Right.
Yeah.
It doesn't taste like bone broth or anything like that.
The problem is collagen just doesn't taste good.
It's chewy.
Your great grandmother might have put it in soup, but all of us were missing out on it.
So show us in theory how this might work in our bodies.
Because I see it all hyped in the web.
But we're going one to start off with an idea that's gotten a lot of traction, which is the potential benefit in weight loss.
So first is, can we actually lose weight by doing this?
Why do you think it might help?
It's 97% pure protein, and everyone knows that increasing your protein and cutting out sugar is a way to help you lose weight.
So in theory, it should work, right?
Protein makes you feel full, you get a little benefit, a discount so to speak when you have protein.
But I guess we looked at this with the medical unit.
I just can't find any proof.
No one has done it yet.
It's all about the protein itself, and we know protein has proof, and collagen is just a form of protein we don't normally get.
So we could get just protein, not collagen, and maybe get some.
benefit.
Second thing, people argue that powdered collagen can help you sleep.
How so?
There are studies that show that glycine, the primary amino acid in collagen, helps with sleep, but no one has ever studied collagen specifically for sleep.
The idea is eat more glycine in the protein you eat every day and it can help with that.
I feel a difference when I do it myself.
So we researched this and it turns out there are actually some studies, reasonable studies, looking at glycine supplements and they do seem to work.
So I understand why this theoretically might be beneficial.
So I'll give a little check there.
Okay.
A little check to sleep.
And finally, there's this whole issue of hydrating your skin and making it wrinkle free.
If everyone can go from this to this, I'm sorry, the other way.
If you want to go from this to this, right?
That's better.
Well, that.
We'd be all embodied.
We put it in an intravenous solution.
So is this something you have confidence in as well?
I have great confidence in this.
There are good studies around skin elasticity and things like that.
So I made a little animation that I can show with the audience.
Come on back with me.
And this is an animation that describes what's going on in our skin.
So under the skin you have all these different elements, right?
You don't have to memorize all these, but they're all sort of important to give the skin its balance and its elasticity.
But what does that actually isn't all these little elements.
It's this, individual little strands of collagen.
And oh, as we age, we lose some of that collagen and we lose the collagen, we therefore lose the balance.
So we give creams to people.
Those creams we believe can be absorbed topically.
They allow you to make more of that collagen and they juvenile the skin.
If you drink the collagen, it's very different though.
It goes into the bloodstream and then those little molecules percolate up into the skin, not on top but from the bottom up and in theory pump up the skin the way the cream does by allowing that collagen to rebuild itself.
Now, I have to say, I was very dubious about this.
And I've struggled a lot about how it's possible that you can get the collagen that you eat to go into the skin.
I don't think that's exactly how it works, but there's actually some good stu studies, two good studies, double blind studies, the best kind we have, that showed that collagen supplements could actually decrease cellulite and improve skin elasticity, giving it more bouncy.
And I've talked to a bunch of dermatologists.
Some of them are supportive, maybe for this reason.
Others say, you know, I don't know.
I'm not sure that the collagen gets into the bloodstream because it gets broken down all the way in the stomach because there's acid in there.
So, net net, we're going to keep an eye on this and this collagen trend because it's promising enough that it might be something out there that we're worth recommending to you.
And we'll update you as the resource becomes available.
Now, for all of you who want to start the ingestible collagen now, Dave, because you're so good at this, has one extra little hack, a little tip.
to make it that much more effective.
It turns out when your body is building new collagen, it doesn't just need the building blocks from eating it, it also needs vitamin C. So if you eat more of the fruits and vegetables and vitamin C sources that you can, you're going to get better skin from eating this way anyway.
Okay, so you're staying around because coming up next, you know, it's our free class day today and it's going to continue with where you can get a front row seat.

It's free class day.
You're about to get a free class on how to hack your morning coffee from the Brain Power Guru himself.
Creator of Bulletproof Coffee, Dave Ashbury's here.
Got some excited viewers who want to learn about the subtlety of this.
So, I love the fact that you come up with easy solutions we can use every single day.
That's why I think you're so successful.
Eggs are your first bit of recommendation, which I didn't expect actually, because eggs seem like a whole separate hassle factor.
You have to cook them up and put them in the pan and figure out what to cook them in.
So, how do we hack eggs?
into our bulletproof coffee?
I'm going to put you to work since you're the student this time.
Okay.
So it's really straightforward.
I want you to crack two eggs and put them in this blender full of hot coffee.
Just put them right in there.
And what we've done first is we've washed the eggs with hot water and dish soap in case there was any salmonella.
Oh, good.
You want organic eggs?
Just crack them right in there.
You got this.
And then, well, one handed, of course, right?
Of course.
There you go.
Now you've got your eggs and your coffee.
So two eggs in my two eggs, one eggs in the coffee?
One or two depends how hungry you are.
Okay.
And blend that right up.
Oh, my goodness.
All right.
So raw eggs, but they're sort of cooked now.
Yeah, they get lightly cooked by the coffee, which is great.
And it sounds weird, but it it smells creamy and delicious.
That's what's in ice cream, is what's in there right now.
So give it a try.
We've got some in these cups.
And here, you guys taste this.
Okay.
Who wants to go first?
You want to go first?
Yeah.
It's actually good.
It smells amazing.
So this is how we have the eggs where we just made them.
Did I blend it enough, you think?
I think you blended it enough.
Okay, we'll find out.
What do you think?
Delicious.
It actually smells like coffee, right?
I don't know how you do it.
I would never have thought of doing this.
I would have repelled the idea out of hand, but it actually smells pretty good.
It turns out you save an extra five or ten minutes in your coffee, though, doctor Oz, is cacao butter.
This is the pure fat that's in chocolate with that creamy, delicious taste.
Full disclosure, I do make one of these because I really believe in it.
But you can add that into the blender with or without the eggs.
And it's kind of like a white chocolate, but not sweet.
And when you do that, you get all the special stuff that's in chocolate.
That's terrible.
What are you talking about?
That's terrible.
That's so good.
But you didn't tell me.
Why didn't you tell me?
What kind of friend are you?
Okay.
These students.
So we put one's one cupful.
One cupful and you can blend it right in there.
And now when you drink it at the end, you taste rich chocolate instead of coffee.
But it's not a mocha..
The hakka, it doesn't taste like, it taste like, I don't know, butter fat or something.
It taste like the end of chocolate.
Yes.
You just get the finish.
So as a culinary guy, this is even better.
Now you've got like a chocolate finish on your ice cream, tasteing coffee.
And it saves you time in the morning.
It still smells good.
Is this it?
Yeah, this is it.
Give that a try.
The final hack, as you're trying that.
Good?
I think the eggs are better.
I just my, what are you guys?
Why, you didn't taste the other one.
Okay.
Do you guys taste the switch?
Yes.
What are you doing?
There we go.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, they're going to saying.
Yes.
It's okay.
It's good.
It's good.
If you switch and taste.
If you put a little sweetener, you put other things in your coffee, this is an addition.
I wouldn't do just that.
What's the benefit I get the benefit of the eggs.
What's the benefit of the cacao butter?
There are a lot of polyphenols in cacao butter.
It turns out cocoa has a lot of these signaling molecules for your body.
Even there's a couple of studies around skin elasticity, believe it or not.
Why can't I just put chocolate in it?
You could.
Oh, why didn't you tell me that?
What do you think?
This is just go ahead.
She's stronger and she takes more of a, takes a smell that's more buttery.
Go with the eggs.
We're all on the same page.
I'll put real chocolate in the Dave.
Okay.
And theanine, this may be the most important.
This is important, and you can get theanine in these little capsules here.
Check that out.
It has very little flavor.
This is the amino acid in green tea, and it causes a calming effect.
So if coffee amps you up, you can take this and get a more sustained feel to it.
You can mix it in your coffee.
If you're saving time in the morning, you just break it in or put the whole capsule in.
You just break it in.
And if you're really lazy, you put the whole capsule, just have to blend it a bit more.
So I tend to break it open or just swallow it with the coffee.
It doesn't matter.
Oh, that's what I would do.
Of course.
That's what.
That's a smart thing to do.
Good.
Yeah, that's what I would do.
Take one of these.
And then what you end up with is just a more of a mellow all morning long.
So this is a neat way to stack this with your coffee.
And now what you've done is you've eliminated breakfast entirely.
You were already going to make your coffee.
So now you've got all your time back.
You've got great protein, great fat, and you feel satisfied all morning.
Well, the hero here, first of all, I like the altianine theoretically, but the hero here are the eggs.
I never thought about this.
Make sure you please clean the eggs.
Use hot coffee, because then you start boiling the eggs.
Always great advice, my friend.
Thank you, Dr. Oz.
Don't forget to check out Dave's book, Head Strong, which has a full plan to get you started.
You can find Dave's bulletproof diet tips on dr. Oz dot com, which are fabulous.
We're back.
When we come back, my wife, Lisa, is cooking up a amazing new breakfast recipe.
It has a secret ingredient from the new anti aging shopping list.
She's going to love it.
It's not kale.
Find out what it is.
next.
So when you think of antiaging, I bet you're thinking about creams and masks you could buy from the drugstore.
But today we're giving you an antiaging shopping list, straight from the pages of my Good Life magazine.
I'm going to show you, you're going to adore this issue.
I'm going to show you that the best age buffering remedies may actually be in your grocery store.
Your grocery store.
And here to share which items to add to our carts is my lovely wife, Lisa, who looks as young as the day I met her.
As a pit, Lisa was getting carded until you were about thirty.
45.
45.
She's still getting carded.
No.
So, you're going to walk us through the items you're going to add to our shopping list.
Remember, a grocery store is like a pharmacy.
It's that powerful.
So, what should we be adding to our list?
It is?
Well, I'm going to make you guess.
What do you think it is?
Human skin?
I mean, I see pores here.
I feel like animal lecturer.
What if I add that to my shopping list?
I'll have some arm skin, please.
No, it is not human skin.
It is here to help your skin.
It is actually a Oh my goodness.
A clementine.
A clementine.
And it is wonderful for your skin.
It's full of vitamins.
What are you doing?
I'm making a Valentine here.
Oh, okay.
Cute, aw.
So sweet, aw.
But clementines are like little dermatologists, little round orange dermatologists because they have tons of vitamin C, which helps build collage in your skin, makes it firm and tight.
See, I just need some clementine right there.
And they also protect from UV light, which prevents those wrinkles from forming.
So they're fabulous.
We love clementines.
And I love to taste them.
And if you ever get a bad one, toss it, because you get it in a big box.
That's how I get them anyway.
Okay, next.
Parsley.
This is actually from our garden.
It is.
This is our garden.
Why is it so valuable for antiagents?
Well, persil, my favorite property of persil is that it's a diuretic, and that doesn't mean it gives you diarrhea.
No, no, no, don't worry.
It actually flushes fluid out of your body, so if you're feeling puffy and bloated, it's a fabulous diuretic.
It also has a wonderful antioxidant, quercetin, and you can explain to us what quercetin does.
We placed travel, that word game, which you, she crushes me at.
Quercetin is a ten dollar, ten point word.
It's a lot of stuff.
It depends where you put it.
If you get it on the triple letter thing, you can math the level.
I don't play at that level.
I just get to try to make the words that are correct.
Okay, so here's how antioxidants, like quercetin.ine work in the body.
So imagine this is your skin.
In your skin, in order for it to work, you have all kinds of proteins.
They look like this.
They feel good, don't they?
That's so cool.
So these proteins are naturally there to make your skin talk, give it the bouncy you want.
When you're young, you have a lot of healthy proteins like this.
As you begin to age, instead of these beautiful, elegant little proteins, your proteins begin to look like this, like little rocks, right?
And they are able to spread throughout your body.
They go everywhere.
You can't even see where they are, but they're making it up.
They're preventing the cells and our bodies, the cells and our whole body from functioning like when we were young.
So you start to notice your skin is not as tight as it was.
How many of you, when you sit down, everything creaks, right?
Right?
And when you stand up it's even worse, right?
That's because of this aging process.
So you have to use antioxidants.
And what antioxidants do, you can't go with your hand and try to find these one by one.
Antioxidants, they're like sanitation workers.
You put them into working there and they will grab up all those ugly proteins.
And when they come out of your body, they look like this.
That's what you want.
So now these cells can function normally again and do what they're supposed to do.
So how do we use petals?
How do you like to use them the most?
How do I like to make it?
Well, in your green drink that you have in the morning, we use tons of petals.
Again, for the diuretic effect.
You love tabuli, which is from your homeland.
Yes.
And my favorite dish with parsley is chimichurri.
It is a condiment from South America.
So delicious.
And we eat a lot of this at our house.
And you can't go wrong, because if you're getting the question, then you're not putting on calories.
Okay, next item from the anti-aging shopping list is my favorite.
We have it in the Good Life feature in a very special place because I love millet.
This is Team Millet.
I never even heard of this thing before I met her.
But now this is probably one of the most common things we have at home.
Well, most people think of millet thinking bird seed, which it is.
It is bird seed, by the way.
Because you have those big bags, but it is so delicious.
It is also really good for you you.
It has amino acids which are great for preventing hair loss and for keeping your skin firm.
It also has magnesium which is healthy for your heart and helps with your blood pressure.
So we're going to make you a delicious oatmeal substitute.
It's going to be a breakfast for you.
So you're going to cook for me, okay?
Thank you.
So you have millet.
Yes.
What's this?
This is coconut milk, ammon milk, and then you have a little bit of salt to taste.
We have cinnamon, this is vanilla, cinnamon.
Cinnamon, cinnamon, cinnamon, cinnamon, and a little bit of honey.
Then we have coconut, toasted coconut, and walnuts.
Perfect.
So you're going to make this for us, okay?
So really easy.
It's like being at home.
Yeah.
Uh huh.
We're just going to pour in all the liquids.
Okay, you wanted to pour that one?
And you can just whisk away.
She gives me very simple tasks thinking I can't mess with the coconut.
And she masters them beautifully.
Okay, and we're going to put in now the spices, cardamom, cannella, vanilla and honey, and a pinch of salt.
Now stir, stir, stir.
A pinch.
Okay, and so you can store this for a long time in your fridge.
It's ready to make, and you just throw it in here, a super quick breakfast, literally ten minutes.
Throw that in there, and then with the coconut.
Now, I know what this smells like, because I enjoy it, but I'm going to give this to some members of the audience.
I'm just curious what you guys think.
think.
You keep stirring over there, honey.
I trust you.
Oh, oh, oh.
Now this is more like what it's like at home.
That's right.
Who wants to taste this?
Who's up for taste?
Tasters?
Here you go.
Now, I want some honesty here.
It's got a little grainedness to it.
I wouldn't add the chimichurri sauce to this, but everything else would go.
Good?
Very good.
Very happy?
Yes.
Would you have it again?
Yes?
Happy customers.
Lisa, I love you.
Thank you very much.
Here, enjoy it.
Sure.
Hey, bud.

And who's going to teach it to us?
Supermodel, actress and busy mom, Molly Sims.
She is here to show us how we can conquer meal times with a super fast meal prep strategy.
come on out molly Oh, thank you.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you, absolutely.
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, my goodness.
Three kids.
Three kids under the age of three.
Like that, like that.
I got, uh, I'm at my prince a little bit late.
I got married when I was 39.
I got pregnant on my honeymoon.
And nine months later, not only had I a husband, but I had a baby to feed.
So mama had to learn fast.
You know, there was maybe yogurt, wine, and skimmed milk in my fridge.
That's it.
That was probably.
So before we get this incredible transformation, let's talk about these three beautiful children.
I looked at your Instagram.
Yeah.
This is a picture.
This is a video by watching this guy.
What are they doing?
Oh my god.
Where's their mother?
Watch this.
Watch this.
What?
What?
Well, we were trying that.
That's Brooks.
He's five.
Gray is nine months today or yesterday.
My little one was trying to help him crawl.
And so he was like, okay, come on, you can do it, you can do it.
And he got fed up with him.
Brooks got fed up with Gray.
So he was like, I'll just help him.
Exactly.
So he like wheelbarreled in front of me.
I'm like, oh my gosh, oh my gosh.
But he was just like, he can do it, mama.
He can do it.
We just have to help him.
I'm like, okay, watch his neck, watch his.
The rest of their lives.
For the rest of their lives.
So how do you make a transition from having, as you say, beer and yogurt?
You know, it was hard.
I'm not gonna lie.
Like, I think because, you know, watching your shows over the years, you talk about there's a difference between being skinny and being healthy.
And that really changes once you have a family.
Forget the diet, fat-free, all of that.
It's what is healthy and making healthy choices.
And so I came up with a plan.
And it deals, and it's not all day on Saturday.
It's Saturday afternoon.
I shop, I cook, I prep.
So that fridge, by the way, is really her fridge.
That is really my fridge.
That is a Sharpie with stickers so everyone knows.
And it's called a 2-2-2-1 plan.
It's two proteins, two salads, and two grains or two veggies.
then the one is the one the the crock pot or the casserole I grew up in Kentucky so my mom she was so great she was a working mom she would wash She was a working mom.
She would watch, you know, she would watch Mashed in 60 minutes and she would put on that crockpot in the morning and she was really good.
Like, I think a lot of this book not, kind of came from her, you know, she made us talk at dinner.
So I really have taken that and put it into the book.
But I really, you know, I've made a big transition and I mean that.
And it's healthy choices.
It's not skinny choices.
It's healthy choices.
But you need a strategy.
You've made us a meal prep strategy.
I've made you a meal prep strategy.
Come over.
I want to walk folks through this.
And it sounds like a math equation, but it's actually pretty straightforward.
It's pretty straightforward.
You could use glass.
You can use Tupperware.
I start with, we know this is based on my tribe of five or five people.
So I want to remember these, all you have to remember is two, two, two and one, right?
Two, two, two and one.
And the mantra is two, two, two plus one, the week is done.
The week is done.
Get a rhyme.
Get a little rhythm in there.
So the first is, the first two, Salmon, proteins, proteins and a chicken.
And it's a hack of a hack.
I, you know, I'm not gonna lie to you.
I don't bake a rotisserie chicken on Saturdays.
I buy it.
I buy two rotisserie chickens.
I cut it up.
I pick from it.
And literally, like you can do the breast or you can shred it.
Salmon.
We bake salmon.
It's really, really easy.
I keep the lemon to keep it fresh with a a little bit of deal.
Again, you can do olives, you can do capers, it depends on how much your family likes it.
But again, what you do is you literally, you know what?
I'm just going to like lift it.
Save some time.
And we save time.
Look at that.
That's what I'm talking about.
But that's what you do.
Done.
Moving on.
Like, and then your kids can pick from it.
And I know it sounds crazy, but like, it's so good.
It's so healthy and it's easy.
So, Saturday morning, you do your thing.
Saturday afternoon, you shop and you prep.
In this case, the two's for proteins.
I'm going to get to keep going on the line.
But you know, by the end of the afternoon, you're done.
And you're two and a half hours.
I'm pretty much done.
I mean, I'm at the wing clinic for the week.
Okay.
Now, you just showed me, you mentioned your three kids., a family of five, you got ten pieces of salmon.
Ten pieces of salmon, correct.
So you got two rotisserie chicken.
I do two rotisserie chicken.
You buy them pre made, whack them up, whack them up, and put them in.
Okay, vegetables.
So this is another hack and a hack.
If often you don't know what kind of toppings you want, so I buy starter kits.
You know, this is Romaine, this is Radicchio, which is really good.
Pour it in.
This has croutons in it.
It's just Romaine with croutons.
Right.
This is all easy, but what about the dressing?
I know, I I want it.
Oh my God.
So this is my go to.
I did this whole, you have to, I'm testing it too, because I could drink it.
Oh, that's good.
I would, I would drink that.
It's so good.
It's like your greens and like, mm, it's so good.
It smells good.
It's basilic, it's coriander, it's peter salt, it's aloe, it's brags.
I got Braggs from you.
Braggs, I love that.
Braggs, amino, ask you, amino, amino, you always talk about it.
It's so good, a little olive oil, salt and pepper, and I'm telling you, make your own.
Again, you make that on Saturday afternoon.
Saturday afternoon, all week long.
So we got the two, got the two protein, two veggies.
Two veggies, two veggies salads.
These are two sides of either grains or veggies.
It doesn't matter.
So I did roasted, I do roasted coliflower.
I think coliflower, I know I love, and spinach.
I think roasted, I think the coliflower is like the new kale.
Because now everybody's doing coliflower rice, but it's so good.
I roast it twenty five minutes.
Again, you can use any salt and pepper, any dressings.
But these are go to staples that my family my family really does love.
So we've gotten the 222 part down.
That's all Saturday.
It's two hours on a Saturday.
Rebecca, if they can get it all done is unbelievable, but it's done.
But I was interested in this.
You mentioned your mom.
And the idea that we could use a crock pot.
The land of the crock pot.
So the plus one is the one hot meal.
It feeds a whole, like, it just you can scoop from this all week long.
My husband loves it.
This is like one of my favorite recipes for Turkey chili.
Again, you can brown the meat in the oven or you can really throw it in.
Eight hours at low again, you've got beans.
I like to use fresh beans and soak them.
But again, throw it all in.
Eight hours later, you have a meal.
I mean, you really do.
Do you make this on Saturday too?
I make it on Saturday too.
And all week while you're refrigerated, it's good to go.
My fridge is good to go.
I mean, I might chop a little bit like strawberries and blueberries and add, you want a little cheese, you want some avocado, you can add parsley and then just toppings on it.
You mix and match these all week long.
I mix and match all week long.
Never get bored.
I never, the kids can use tortillas.
They can, whole wheat tortillas is a must have for, I think, a fridge with a family because they can make salmon tacos., they can make Fama burritos, chicken burritos, they can make peanut butter tacos.
Look how pretty those are.
Yeah.
The pictures from the book are fantastic.
And they really can mix and match, you know.
So you figured out how to feed the family, how to feed the children, but we want to upgrade one little step because we want to feed the adults when the children are asleep.
So Molly's hacked your dinners, and next she's hacking a favorite cocktail to make it skinny.
You're going to like this.
Stay around.
This is fabulous.
The doctor who claims he can reverse Alzheimer's.
Two of his patients are speaking out with his plan.
All New Oz.
That's coming up on Monday.
Oh my God!
I am back with supermodel and author Molly Sims, who just hacked your dinner in a really tasty way.
Now she's going to hack your favorite cocktail, the Moscow Mule.
Moscow Mule.
I love this drink, but it gets caloric at times, so she's going to make it thin so you don't have to feel guilty.
So how do you do that?
Well, this is going to be the hot date to the margarita.
To the hot date to the skinny margarita.
We're all about cutting calories, so I'm going to cut it even more.
So ginger beer, even though we love it, it's, again, it's a little caloric.
Sugar bomb.
It's a sugar bomb.
We're going to take sparkling seltzer water.
We're going to add two cups.
Really easy.
I can't do much.
I can pour I can make alcoholic beverages.
This is my little trick.
It's organic ginger juice.
Just a couple of different ones.
Instead of the beer.
Instead of the beer.
So this is where you're really going to cut your calories.
To get the carbonation from this, cut the sugar.
Cut the sugar.
I abominable it.
It's really good.
And you're going to add fresh ginger in a second.
Then you're going to do, you're going to pour it in here.
Do that for me.
Then you're going to do two cups of green tea.
Then you're going to do green tea is good for a lottery.
Green tea, we love our green tea.
Charge your metabolism on with a penalty shot.
I love that.
Then you're going to add half a cup of lime or lemon juice, depending on your taste.
I like lime juice.
And then again, for not your super mamas to be, if you're not pregnant, you can add your vodka.
Just in case you spilled the vodka, you can add a little extra.
And then a little grated ginger.
And I'm telling you, it's so good.
It's a good idea.
Just a little grated ginger.
This really like makes it a little spicy.
Oh, you smell that.
It's so good.
And so good again for your metabolism.
It smells fresh.
It smells fresh.
Pour it in your cup.
Add a little ginger garnish, a little lime garnish.
I love fresh mint.
And more than anything, I love these freaking cups.
They keep it cool.
I know, but it just makes a difference.
A toast to you.
Thank you for all you're doing for the beautiful kids.
Thank you.
And for all you make the difference you're making in our lives.
Go to dr. Oz.
com for all of Molly's recipes from today.
And don't forget to pick up a copy of her fantastic new book.
It's called Everyday Chic.
She's a very chic woman.
Now you guys probably want to drink this drink now, don't you?
You do.
So I only have two cups, but you know what we do have?
We have two hundred of Molly's books.
So you're all going home with your own.
And Joy, make the mouse go and eat all the skinny way.
We're right back.
And I love it.
You have to have these.
The Most Wanted Man in America.
They were dropped off for a walk.
Within four hours, they were dead.
All nuised.
That's coming up on Tuesday.
There's a new shark in the tank, a brand new shark.
This self-proclaimed brand messiah, Rohan Oza, is responsible for the success of several healthy products that have become household names.
You know them all.
And now on Shark Tank, he's on the hunt for the next big health brand.
Today, Rohan is here giving you the first look at the newest health food trends so you know which ones are worth your your money?
My passion is building brands in a disruptive way.
Graduated from Michigan, and the first company I want to work for is Coca Cola.
I got to work at Sprite and Powerade where I learned lifestyle marketing.
I became a serial investor entrepreneur.
Pop chips, Vita Coco, Chef's Cups, the Kensington ketchup.
Buy, buy what I sold for a billion seven.
People who want to make a difference are always going to have pushback.
You have to have the inner confidence to push through because if you don't break through that wall, you'll get stuck behind it.
I've never had an original product idea, but what I have the ability to do is very, very early find amazing products created by amazing people.
And I help take those brands to the promised land.
When I look out of the city and think back to the small town that I grew up in and where I am today, it's crazy.
I'm both humble and proud of what I've done to get here.
Rohan Oza, come on out.
I'm picking the charts out.
Oh, you.
Pleasure.
Thanks for being here.
It's so cool.
So I have to say something.
So Oz, Ozzy.
It's very close.
Ozak.
Oza, so it's like Oz with a little something extra.
Right, just a little, like the evolution.
The evolution of Oz.
Let's see.
I love it.
You're from South Africa originally.
Yeah, I grew up in Zambia, right by the Victoria Falls, a small town called Livingston.
Go visit if you want to go on safari.
That's right.
So products, that's all about your expertise area, Adam.
It's remarkable how in tune you've been with America and where our nation's taste buds are heading.
I see these days a lot of people pitching concepts like this.
They don't always work, but they're out there.
You've got to make a difficult decision of who to invest in.
So how do you pick which of the pitches you're getting at, you know, sitting in those Shark Tank chairs?
And which ones are you going to just throw?
Well, it's you have to go with two things.
I like I look at the founder and then I look at the idea.
Because if it's a founder with a bad idea, it's out.
But if it's a great idea and someone is looking like you just don't want to work with them, it's, you know, the juice is not worth the squeeze, you're out as well.
Juice is not worth the squeeze.
All right, we're going to look at one of your first investments on Shark Tank.
Listen to this.
Hi, I'm Megan Reimer.
And I'm her husband Scott.
We're here from Crested Butte, Colorado.
We're asking for $1.25 million for 5% of our business, Jackson's Honest.
We are on a mission to fundamentally disrupt the $20 billion snack food industry.
We've learned a lot about the benefits of coconut oil when caring for our son, Jackson.
Jackson became very sick with a rare disease, and over many years of trial and error, we realized that a low carbohydrate, high fat diet really helped his condition, and we would give these chips to our friends and family, and they all insisted they were the best they'd ever had, and for years encouraged us to sell them.
Let me stop by commending you on a product that is absolutely disrupting the food and beverage space.
Everything out there is high sugar, high fat, not the good stuff that you need.
You're bringing the good facts in.
I'd like to give you an offer.
All right, my final offer is 15%.
Rohan, we'd love to take your offer.
Outstanding.
Thank God.
Congratulations.
Chip of the day.
Congratulations.
Let's go do this.
Thank you.
I love your product.
It's too rich.
Good luck.
All right, so Rohan, I saw you salivating on these chips.
What is it about these things you like so much?
I noticed the interesting colors they have.
Blue.
So look, I told you two things.
First, start with the founders.
Incredible people with an incredible story.
Secondly, everyone wants to have chips.
Chips don't want to go where they're a great snack.
The problem is what people fry them in is horribleble.
Megan of Scott figured out a way to fry chips in coconut oil, which is a good fat.
You've had people here, Mark Hymans, my doctor, a friend of yours, espouses all the benefits of good fats.
Fried in coconut oil, so the fat part is good, and then I don't feel so bad about eating the chips.
Secondly, everyone says eat the rainbow.
So we have purple chips, red chips, sweet potatoes that you're trying, so it's better for you chips.
Now, I'm not going to opine on the taste of these because I have real critics here.
You think you guys are tough.
I've got the bike club.
And the bike club, you know, they're ruthless.
They're our focus group table right now.
They're going to weigh on whether or not they would spend or end this health trend.
See how it smells?
It smells half the rhyme.
All right.
So guys, spend or end this health trend.
Thoughts?
Oh, wow.
I love it.
Describe the taste to me a little bit.
What do you like the most about it?
A little bit of meat.
Definitely.
These chips are so flavorful.
I mean, it's just, it's packed.
I can't believe I'm eating a chip.
These chips are fantastic.
They taste just like regular potato chips, you know.
You know what?
I want all of you in the audience to try some.
So guys, come on out.
I got my team.
They had enough.
You think they had enough of these things?
Let's pass it over here.
Who wants the?
Who wants the chip?
But you gotta do it the right way, Rohan.
You have a chip, and you get a chip.
And you get a chip.
And there.
And you get a chip.
There we are.
Up next.
Rohan's weighing in on the new health food trend taking over social media.
It is called Pawpaw fruit.
I'm not giving you Pawpaw fruit.
So he's doing this to see if he thinks it is worth your money, because this guy can spot a winner.
It's there.
It's done.
I'm doing it right, so that way.
A new season of True Crime Tuesdays.
on Dr. Oz.
We are back with Shark Tank's newest shark, Rohan Oza, who is also known as the brand father, not grandfather like I am, but brand father behind several successful health food products.
Now he's weighing in on some of the latest trends, so you know where to invest your money most wisely.
So next.
We have the fruit that has taken over social media.
I'm seeing this pawpaw fruit everywhere.
They say it is America's secret fruit.
So Rohan, let me show you how to cut this.
I'm a surgeon.
Yeah.
So you hold it off like this.
I grew up in Africa.
I actually fell off a papa tree.
Literally fell off because the branches are actually a little weak.
But you know, let the go ahead and let me see how you do it.
Is this what your papa fruit looks like?
It's a lot bigger, to be honest.
Yours are bigger than yours.
Yeah.
You better do it.
Go ahead.
So he takes it vertically cutting it.
I've got the bite clay here, paying close for it, careful attention.
And these are eaten all over the place in Africa?
Yeah, correct.
You twist it and turn it.
Oh, look at that.
There's lots of seeds in these.
Right, exactly.
So it comes right there.
Out.
You scoop out the seeds.
Then you can plant these.
seeds, by the way, to get your next pawpaw tree going.
How big do these trees grow?
Are they big things?
I mean, I didn't I think I may have just sprained my wrist.
It wasn't, it's not that huge.
Not that big a fall.
Yeah.
Okay.
And then you eat the, you eat the rest of it?
You eat the rest of it.
Straight up.
So, if you don't mind, we're going to try to get the Bike Club voting on this.
But in your opinion, what does this taste like?
Just a thought.
Use some, you know, thoughtful words to describe it as it.
It taste like a mango with less sugar.
See, I love mangoes.
The problem with mangoes is I also climbed a mango tree, by the way.
You fell from that too?
I did not.
Strong the branches were a good recurring theme.
We had all in the back yard.
I mean, so.
But the mango has too much sugar.
This thing feels like it has a lot less sugar sugar and looks like it may have more fiber.
Well, you're definitely in touch with your roots.
Any other trees you've fallen off?
No.
All right, bike club.
You spend or end this health trend.
Three spends, four spends.
All right.
Describe the taste in your opinion.
What do you think about it?
Definitely like mango.
It tastes very much.
And like banana, the consistency.
I was going to say that.
I think the banana and the mango had a baby.
Yes, exactly.
They had a baby.
That's what this is.
We should.
Pawpaw, this thing should be the, I don't know, the Mambana.
Mangana.
Mangana.
Brandon Genius, witnessing right here.
All right.
Before you go, advice for the health entrepreneurs.
I think there are so many out there watching this show right now who got a brilliant idea.
What do they do with the idea?
Well, three things.
One, defy the experts.
There's a lot of people who are experts out there, people who I think write the news but don't make the news.
And whenever you have a breakthrough idea as an entrepreneur, you get a lot of pushback.
So one, defy the experts because everything is niche until it's not.
Breakthrough.
Second, everyone says this, but hire great people around you.
I've only done well because I've had smart teams around me.
And if you don't surround yourself with smart guys and you micromanage, you will choke your own company.
And finally, trust people.
Give people a chance to surprise you.
They always will.
They will.
And then finally, passion.
The infectious energy in the company comes from the founder.
So if you've got the high energy and you've got the drive and motivation, they'll follow you and charge the mountain.
If you don't, they won't.
I love your passion.
Pleasure.
Brown Ozap, thank you.
You watch him and the others on Sunday nights on ABC.
Fantastic show, as we all know.
Remember, everybody, happy healthy starts at home.
