| 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. |
| 0:44.9 | This podcast is brought to you by Podcast Nation. Welcome, welcome, welcome. Sorry, I just really |
| 0:53.2 | felt like starting this episode like Dax |
| 0:56.0 | Shepard. So that's what I did because this is my show and I can do whatever I want. I am in a weird |

| 1:29.4 | holiday movies. That's what I want to do. But then at the same time, I'm such a busy body that |
| 1:35.2 | sometimes my brain won't let me relax. And I'm like, oh yeah, I have to do this. I have to do that. |
| 1:41.5 | So yeah, it's like a battle, you know, just all these conflicting feelings. |
| 1:46.1 | But enough about me and my problems, you know, like water running down my arms as I wash my face. |
| 1:52.3 | Like, it's something that has bothered me for years, but I don't think I have ever verbalized it until I made that TikTok and the real about it happening. Like, never have I |
| 2:03.3 | discussed it with anyone, brought it up, like, hey, does water run down your arms when you wash your |
| 2:08.8 | face too? Like, it's just never come up. But it's such an annoying thing that happens twice a day. |
| 2:14.8 | So how are we not talking about it, you know? Anyways, turns out there's all these |
| 2:18.4 | products to prevent it from happening, which I had no idea. So I instantly ordered some of those |
