0:06.4	big data artificial intelligence and early detection and this is going to circumvent the entire system
0:14.0	and it will absolutely revolutionize modern medicine and modern health care in the next five years
0:20.5	i think in a way
0:21.7	that's going to be catastrophic for some, but it's going to be so beneficial for humanity.
0:26.9	Hello, friends. Welcome back to another episode of the Real Foodology podcast. Today was a pinch me
0:32.1	moment. I sat down with Gary Brecker, and this was such an incredible episode. This man, you can just really tell
0:39.6	that he cares and that he wants to help people. He was so kind. He invited me to his place,
0:44.9	and this is where we recorded, because he also invited me to be on his podcast. So we did a little
0:49.3	swap. So look out for my episode coming out on his podcast. Before we started recording, he took me around
0:55.2	his place and he was showing me all of his biohacking tools and toys and he also fed me

1:29.9	talked a lot about circadian rhythm and how you can address if you're having a hard time falling
1:36.5	asleep. And this one was actually a personal one to me that I shared that I've really been
1:40.7	struggling with. And he gave me some incredible advice. This man is just
1:44.7	a wealth of knowledge. And we dove into women's hormones a little bit. So it just, it was such a
1:50.9	great episode. You're definitely not going to want to miss it. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I just
