Dr. Oz started the show by clarifying that he is not getting a penny from the products featured on this episode. He explains that he [and his staff] have looked far and wide to find sure-fire ways to target viewers greatest concerns. Dr. Oz says he hopes to make all this easier for viewers and therefore feels obliged to recommend specific products.

Dr. Oz Six Best Tips for Aging

Dr. Oz Greatest Tip #1: Reduce Wrinkles
Retinol is the only ingredient in skin care that has proven over and over again to reduce wrinkles, says Dr. Oz. Retinol is a form of Vitamin A that promotes collagen growth to keep the skin bouncy.

  6. Spirulina was recommended on the 4/30/12 episode to support the metabolism. Spirulina, a blue-green algae, comes in caps, tablets, and powder. Does that sound like what you're looking for?

  8. Hi! I am a true Dr. Oz watcher and when I saw this episode, I was excited about the free products! Now, that I was told to come back on here, regardless that the show aired previously. Now, I come to find those products are no longer available. For someone like me who has fibromalgia, they would of been great. I'm very disappointed.

  9. Thanks for posting Judy. I hear your frustration around the giveaways not being available when an episode airs as a repeat. It would have been great if the products were still available.

    WatchingDrOz is a fan site and is not affiliated with The Dr. Oz Show. One thought is to communicate your experience to Dr. Oz and his staff through his website at DoctorOz.com.

    The new season of The Dr. Oz Show begins on Monday, Sept 10, 2012. Perhaps prize giveaways will be featured on these new episodes.
