0:00.0	What if I told you that for many of you, your expensive supplements might be doing almost nothing
0:06.5	because your body can't absorb them? Did you know that there are many celebrities, professional
0:12.2	athletes, CEOs, and even ER doctors that are using a special type of nutritional therapy
0:18.3	to bypass the gut entirely? and it promises better energy,
