[00:23:24] <exec> 08└─I do have to disagree with you here. There's a tremendous amount of literature in nephrology (that's the kidney doctors) pointing directly at sodium for causing and exacerbating hypertension, renal disease, and related conditions. I attended the American Society of Nephrology conference once, and th...
