| 0:00.0 | Hello, everyone, and welcome back. This week, we are doing things a little differently. |
| 0:05.5 | We're actually airing a conversation that we had on the taking control of your diabetes podcast. |
| 0:11.9 | This is a podcast hosted by two endocrinologist, Dr. Steve Edelman and Dr. Jeremy Pettis. |
| 0:17.6 | We talk about so many things from our approach to nutrition, to our thoughts |
| 0:22.7 | on intermittent fasting and other restrictive diets, and ultimately what we think works best |
| 0:28.4 | when it comes to nutrition for people with diabetes. |
| 0:31.6 | Make sure that you tune in until the very end. |
| 0:33.7 | It was such a fun conversation, and we're going to get right into it. |

| 1:45.0 | And to be honest, most practitioners, most places that take care of people with diabetes |
| 1:51.0 | don't have access to people to talk to them about diet, and patients don't have access to this. |
| 1:57.0 | So we're happy to have you guys here to talk about these really, really important topics. |
