| 0:00.0 | People have been drinking more than ever and it's more important than ever before for them to get a really clear sense without dogma, without labels, without shame of where their drinking stands and how they can do something about it. |
| 0:15.5 | Welcome to the Ignited Recovery podcast. A new way forward for anyone looking for answers but feeling left out. |
| 0:23.4 | If you've been searching for empowerment, triumph, and purpose, you've found them right here. |
| 0:28.7 | You won't hear the same solutions and you're not going to have any excuses to fall back on |
| 0:33.6 | because Ignited Recovery allows heroes to rise and become their best selves. I'm Dr. Adi Jaffe, |
| 0:40.7 | and I can't wait to be your guide on this journey. Are you ready to become an ignited hero? |
| 0:58.7 | If you're diabetic, how do you measure how well you're doing? |
| 1:04.1 | If you need to lose weight and you're doing something about it, what's the measure for improvement? |
| 1:08.5 | And if you're in school and you're not getting the grades that you want, how do you know whether the different study techniques or the tutor you're |

| 1:32.4 | little pinprick devices that people then have these crazy, insanely, technologically advanced |
| 1:37.4 | mobile blood labs where they can look at their blood glucose tests and they're different. |
| 1:41.5 | They're ones that they do after fasting or early in the |
| 1:44.5 | morning or after taking on some sugar and things of that nature. But you literally take a biological |
| 1:49.2 | test of blood glucose. And if you're trying to lose weight, the measure for improvement is either |
| 1:53.6 | the weight loss number, how many pounds you've lost, the percent of weight loss or your BMI. |
| 1:59.6 | And I know some people are arguing about whether BMI is a great measure for improvement in weight, |
