      7-26-07 NOTE: my comments [below\ were directed to a current interview of Dr. Mehmet Oz, just aired on PBS @ 2pm today, regarding his latest book, "YOU on a Diet: the owner's manual to waist management" published October 2006 [highly recommended\. Although Dr. Oz is sitting in the exact same chair with the same handsome profile and similar dark suit, this is NOT the equally-fascinating interview offered above on 10-24-03 and on 5-10-05, both of which I also highly recommend for their nutritional revelations and their highly-charged motivational value. Note: the 5-10-05 interview also includes his co-author, Dr. Michael F. Roizen, who separated most of the "wheat from the chaff" in the 35,000 reports/books they researched in writing all 3 of their well-informed books, including "You, the Owner's Manual: An Insider's Guide to the Body That Will Make You Healthier and Younger" published May 2005.

      Covering a myriad topics, Dr. Mehmet Oz was both illuminating and inspiring on the subject of what 'overweight/obesity in America' amounts to physiologically ["there are a dozen redundant biological systems involved in fat storage"\, how we got there as a nation ["U.S. food production is 5000 calories/day/person"\, and what we can do about it as individuals ["diet smart, instead of diet hard"\. He gave many simple examples for determining relative body health: e.g., ignoring the complex BMI calculation, as an upper body weight limit, your waist size should be less than 1/2 your height [in inches\; to avoid hunger and eat less at dinner, just munch on some tree nuts [walnuts, almonds, etc.\ 1/2 hour before your meal; and, the common denominator among the 3 longest-lived societies in the world is simply walking a 1/2 hour per day. Dr. Oz speaks in such simple layman terms about these complex nutritional topics, that all of us, including the 'healthy' ones, can profit from spending 20 precious minutes with him here with Charlie Rose.

      I truly enjoy your show. I do have a suggestion for when you or your guest are talking about second opinions for medical problems...not all viewers live near large medical centers and do not have the luxury of multiple selections withour traveling long distances. I get your program thru chanel 22 from Hagerstown Md. and it is aired at 12:30 on weekdays.

      I was interested in the question,"how to find the smart doctor,"it was brought up in this interview but never explained to the audience.I use "Captions" and could have missed the answer. I watch Charlie Rose almost every night and am grateful to Thirteen as well.Thank you.
