0:00.0	My fasting glucose is 81 and my A1C has dropped from 6.7 to 6, which means I'm pretty insulin sensitive.

0:14.0	Now, if I wasn't on the diet that you guys recommend, I'd hate to think where I'd be. Welcome to the Mastering Diabetes Audio Experience, where we teach you how to sit in the driver's seat of your diabetes health for the rest of your life.
0:39.3	We'll teach you how to reverse insulin resistance, achieve your ideal body weight, gain energy,
0:44.3	and get your best A1C following more than 85 years of evidence-based research in the Mastering Diabetes Program.
0:52.3	Our program teaches you how to reverse pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes, and how to simplify
0:59.0	your life with type 1 diabetes by maximizing your insulin sensitivity using food as medicine.
1:06.0	We're on a bold mission to reverse insulin resistance in 1 million people. We're glad to have you joining us.
