| 0:00.0 | We're operating under the assumption that the body is this static mechanism. |
| 0:05.0 | That is absolutely 100% not true. |
| 0:09.0 | In a system that is a balance-based system that is always seeking its equilibrium, |
| 0:13.0 | what you get over time, you don't get a straight line, you get a curve. |
| 0:17.0 | The primary reason I think the sugar diet works, |

| 1:10.1 | as many of those as we can get. |
