| 0:00.0 | Is drinking raw milk safe like RFK Jr. suggests? Can you reduce a glucose spike if you eat your food in, quote, unquote, the right order? I'm registered dietitian Abby Sharp. I host a nutrition myth-busting podcast called Bite Back with Abby Sharp. And those are just some of the questions I tackle with qualified experts on my show. |
| 0:21.4 | There is so much food misinformation and disinformation out there, and it can feel impossible |
| 0:27.9 | to know what's real and what's BS. |
| 0:30.7 | On Biteback, my goal is to help listeners create a pleasurable relationship with food, |
| 0:35.3 | their body, and themselves, which in my opinion is the |
| 0:38.6 | fundamental secret to good health. Listen to bite back wherever you get your podcasts. |
| 0:44.8 | This podcast is brought to you by Podcast Nation. |
| 0:49.7 | Welcome to the mom room. I know I've been quiet on my Instagram stories. People always get concerned. I'm okay. Everything's great. My mom is visiting, which means she is upstairs. Usually I record with an empty house. Like the two dogs are here with me, obviously. But for the most part, the house is empty. Right now my mom is upstairs. She tore apart my closet.

| 1:29.2 | and she is just given her. If it sounds like there's somebody in my house stomping around, |
| 1:35.4 | bringing things up and down the stairs, that is what that noise is. My mom is just doing all the |
| 1:41.1 | things that I procrastinate doing for years. The number of denim shorts |
| 1:46.0 | and jeans, full-length jeans that I have that don't fit me anymore is unbelievable. I should actually |
| 1:54.7 | make a real, although I think half of them are gone in the car now. My sister's going to try them on. |
| 2:00.1 | She lost a ton of weight, |
| 2:01.5 | and then here's me gaining all the weight. But also I'm gaining muscle now. So I just want to point that out. |
| 2:08.1 | I'm kind of really strong. And you know, when you do squats, your butt gets bigger and your thighs get |
| 2:14.7 | bigger. So my jeans no more fit fit and i realized today we are going to |
| 2:21.7 | Vegas at the end of this month my husband has a conference and i am going to need clothing to wear |
| 2:27.4 | in warm weather and i think what i'm going to do is just pack skirts and t-shirts and maybe some dresses, things like that |
| 2:35.3 | if we go for dinner. But I do not want to be wearing jeans unless we go somewhere super funky, |
