Doctor Oz did a show on Food Frauds, which are examples of how companies trick us with their food labels and packaging. Then Dr Oz brought Dave Lieberman on his show to show us some Food Fixes, which are how to turn his Food Frauds into healthy meals. Lieberman made three dishes: Almond Crusted Halibut, Quinoa Salad and Berry Granita for dessert. Sounds like the perfect healthy diet meal!
