0:00.0	We are saying you can put these in foods for kids.
0:02.9	The phrase we're going to use is generally recognized as safe.
0:06.5	Kids are dying.
0:07.4	Their mortgages are paid by demonizing what I am talking about.
0:12.0	The biggest mistake we're making is we're eating ultra-process food.
0:14.9	We lose and then rebirth like 600 billion cells per day.
0:20.1	On this week's episode of my podcast, I sat down with the one and
0:23.5	only Casey Means. She has an incredible story that we talk about a little bit in this podcast. She went on
