On a
sunny weekday
afternoon, Mehmet C. Oz, MD, the renowned 49 - year - old heart surgeon (vice-chairman and professor of surgery at Columbia University and director of the Cardiovascular Institute and Complementary Medicine Program at New York — Presbyterian Hospital), co-author of five best - selling books in the You series, YOU: The Owners Manual, YOU: The Smart Patient, YOU:
On a Diet, You: Staying Young, and You: Being Beautiful — and newly minted host of his own nationally syndicated daytime talk - show, The Dr. Oz Show — drove out to the Carrolls
home in Ridgewood, New Jersey, to help the family turn things around.
Hardly any solar
homes are actually «off the grid,» since they still depend
on power lines to soak up their excess electricity during
sunny afternoons and deliver power at night.
