0:09.9	If you want to burn fat, gain energy, and enhance your health by changing when you eat,
0:15.4	not what you eat, with no calorie counting, then this show is for you.
0:20.2	I'm Melanie Avalon, biohacker, founder of Avalon X, and author of What, When, Wine?
0:26.6	Lose weight and feel great with paleo-style meals, intermittent fasting, and wine.
