0:00.0	Hi podleters, very excited to be back in your earholes. Not literally, obviously, I didn't
0:05.7	know I'd fit in your earhole. If I would, I would maybe consider contacting the Guinness
0:11.2	World Book of Records because you probably got quite big earholes. Okay, good, absolutely
0:16.4	not relevant. Anyway, this week I'm speaking to Dr Hazel Wallace, who is the founder of the
0:21.9	Food Medic. She's an author, personal trainer, and now also a registered nutritionist, which
0:27.7	is why I wanted to get out to come and talk about the difference between nutrition and medicine,
0:32.9	why it's so hard to navigate these conversations around nutrition, especially on social media,
0:38.0	and how we are impacted by food and our relationship with it. I think it's a really meaty one, and

1:17.6	founder of the Food Medic, which is an educational platform aimed at bridging the gap between medicine
1:23.8	and nutrition and discussing other aspects of health. Amazing. Do you know what? That everyone says
1:28.6	this to you, but my favourite thing is when you say NHS, because you like, does anyone say that to you?
1:33.4	No, it's because I have friends. You've properly said it. I always feel like, so I can't even do it,
1:39.0	because you're at, so we have to ask and ask them that. So the reason I bought Hazel on today is
1:43.9	because you're in a really interesting position, which not a lot of people are in, where you're,
1:47.4	as you say, a medical doctor, but you also now are a qualified nutritionist. And I think as everyone
1:52.7	is wanting to get more glued up on nutrition, and as we have more access to information, it's
1:57.0	transpiring that maybe some of the information that we got set online is a bit of misinformation,
