Hi, this is Hope. This is Karina.

Hi, this is Katie from Washington, DC, and you're listening to me at the radio.

Thank you so much for joining us, Dr. Monica Agrawal,

depending on who you ask. It could be pronounced

Google Vault. You were trying to teach me the proper pronunciation, but Agrawal, if you're

going to type it into Google, but it comes from a traditionally Indian name.

Did I get anywhere near the proper pronunciation?

Yeah, I'm going to give you a B and a B plus for trying, which is pretty good.

And so the truth is, is that for, you know, I grew up and was born here.

And so while I know how it should sound, I've always called myself Monica Agrawal as well.

But if you talk to my parents, they would definitely say, oh, Monica Agrawal, you know,

and so that's the thing that sort of, you know, it's the funnyisms of ethnic culture and

differences in language. So anyway, Monica Agrawal is perfect. Thank you so much for having me here.

It's such a pleasure. Well, thank you for making time to share a little bit of your wisdom.

I have your body and fire anti-inflammatory cookbook sitting right beside me. I am so excited to

encourage my wife to try these recipes. I say that because I could definitely pull off

a number of these breakfasts and smoothies. But when it comes to some of the more complicated

dishes, I wouldn't do you justice if I tried my hand at them in the kitchen. I am very bad at

following recipes. So that is an area of our, of our home that my wife really takes a lead on.

So I'm very blessed with that. You have a healthy balance. It sounds like everybody's got their role,

right? I do the snow shoveling, putting out the trash, you know, all of that manual labor. She does

more of the delicate cuisine. So in any event, thank you so much. Dr. Monica
