0:00.0	Hello and welcome back to a brand new season of the Food Medic podcast. I'm your host, as always,
0:07.0	Dr. Hazel Wallace. I'm a medical doctor, nutritionist, author and founder of the Food Medicic. And it's so
0:13.2	very nice to be back speaking to you again. I can't really believe that we're back on season seven
0:19.6	already. But I'm so grateful to those
0:21.9	who have stuck around from the start and a very big welcome to those who are joining us for the
