She's the daughter of "You Doc" Mehmet Oz, and author of The Dorm Room Diet. Health Corner visits Daphne Oz on-campus to learn first-hand how her diet and exercise program helps college kids avoid the "freshman 15."  Until recently, it had no name. It's a mysterious condition many cancer patients say feels like being in a mental fog. Meet a woman who experiences "chemobrain" three years after cancer treatment, and how she's successfully coping with it. No water needed, that's the good news when Health Corner host Dr. Lisa Thornton talks with Walgreens pharmacist John Jenkins about new chewable and fast-dissolving medications. Accepting help is something many care givers must learn how to do. Leeza Gibbons and Dr. Jamie Huysman share Mai's story, and how she's accepting help while her infant son is hospitalized. A dessert that helps you lose weight? You bet, says Dr. John La Puma. Find out how as he prepares a ChefMD™-approved recipe for sweet roasted pears with pomegranate syrup. Plus fitness expert Denise Austin with an exercise to tone and tighten the chest, image consultant Florida Perry Smith with quick fix hair tips from the Hollywood Hair Guy, and home life expert Jill Repp on getting kids to brush, floss and rinse, without making bribes. All that and so much more.
