“I don’t want you to become a carbotarian,” Oz says.

On Wednesday, April 27, Dr. Oz will share the stage with several other doctors–all known for advocating a vegan diet for good health.

Joining Oz for his special vegan episode will be Dr. T. Colin Campbell, Caldwell Esselstyn, MD, and Neal Barnard, MD. Rip Esselstyn, son of Dr. Esselstyn, author of The Engine 2 Diet and firefighter who convinced his station to go vegan to solve many of their health problems, will also be present.

Two years ago, Oz featured a meat-loving cowboy named Rocco who embarked on a 28-day vegan diet. Rocco lost 6 inches from his waist, reduced his blood sugar from dangerously high to almost completely normal and raised his good HDL cholesterol levels.

A preview of Wednesday’s show can be viewed below.

It seems the important things in life are designated by colors.

The infamous black book. The little black dress.

When Dr. Oz celebrated his 100th episode of “The Dr. Oz Show,” he shared the recipe for his Green Drink.

It’s a low-calorie breakfast drink that combines fruits and vegetables and only requires a simple blender–not a high end juicer–to create.
