Image
We're all human beings, but some of us are more sophisticated at covering our flaws. We're just smart enough to lie to ourselves that everything is OK.
Mehmet Oz
Image
I think that we're beginning to globalize medicine now. You have to take Eastern approaches and bring them to the West, and share West with the East.

It takes around 30 minutes for your body to realize you're full, so if you're hungry when you sit down to eat, and you eat as quickly as most Americans do, you're just going to keep throwing down food before that feeling kicks in.
Mehmet Oz
Image
We don't walk. We overeat because we've made it easy to overeat. We have fast-food joints on every corner. By the way, the 'we' is all of us. It's not the government. It's all of us doing this together.

Whatever you choose, do it fully-with passion and childlike enthusiasm.

A lot of folks believe their best years are behind them. But I want Americans to recognize that's not true.

Your genetics load the gun. Your lifestyle pulls the trigger.
Mehmet Oz
Image
One way to fuel the brain to make more decisions is to feed it carbs. So as the day goes on, you start to crave more carbs - especially women, because women tend to make more of the day-to-day decisions in our lives than men.
Mehmet Oz
Image
We need a wholesale reevaluation of what health feels like. Most Americans don't even know what that is anymore. I want to tell people, Listen, there are places where you can focus on your health, and it can actually be simple.
Mehmet Oz
Image
At the end of the day, sleep is a barometer of your emotional health. And so if you're not in the right place where you need to be, then you're going to have voices keeping you up at night because you have to work through those issues.

I've always felt that, when I looked at my tombstone, it shouldn't say, 'Mehmet Oz banged out 10,000 open-heart operations.' I've probably done 5,000. Am I any better at it than 10,000? He shook his head. It's just a different number on the tombstone.

The biggest mistake people make is to try to lose too much weight too fast.
Mehmet Oz
Image
Our ancestors had to eat whenever food was around. And we're actually still hardwired the same way. The big difference is we don't have to hunt for our food. For us, hunting comes down to sliding the milk carton out of the way.
Mehmet Oz
Image
We don't need sugar to live, and we don't need it as a society.
Mehmet Oz
Image
I've got so many weaknesses.

Image
I meditate and I'm passionate about it.
