Dr. Oz showed Lori Ann and the audience two pictures. The first picture was a picture of popcorn lined up in rows. He asked Lori Ann how many pieces of popcorn were in the picture. She said 30. The correct answer was 20.

The second picture was a picture of a bunch of colored clocks. Dr. Oz asked what time the red clock in the picture red. Lori Ann couldn’t remember at all. Someone in the audience yelled 8 p.m. and Dr. Oz said the person was right.

He said not to be discouraged if you got either of the questions wrong because it is possible to train your brain to store these types of information and details.

Dr. Oz: Retrieving Memory
