Um, but any cash pay clinic, I hate to say functional medicine, but like, if you, if you go to get work done on your house or your car, like I'll interview three or four people before I decide it's wild to me that with healthcare, we just sign up with the first person we find.
Well, it's become like a catchphrase and it's, you know, a lot of people.
Yeah, and then it's almost become like a four-letter word in academia. They go, oh, these functional medicine doctors. But the truth is, you know, academia is captured. If somebody works at a teaching institute and they're part of an insurance program, it's all dictated by the insurance company what they can or can't do. They're not going to do a full workup.
Well, we're here too. So mainly like us, but for men's health, there's like Merrick health. There's Tony Robbins. I think life, it's not life force. Tony Robbins has a facility here, but some of those are more expensive and it's all about budget timing. What can you afford? But in a dream world, If you had a clinic that said, I'm recommending you do comprehensive biomarkers at least twice a year.
If you had a clinic that somebody is going to sit down and spend at least 30 minutes with you to deep dive and explain to you what those biomarkers mean so you can understand it. Like the goal is to educate and empower patients. I don't believe that a clinician should operate from a position of authority dictating down to a patient.
Like the ways to well model is we are here to embolden, empower and educate you to take sovereignty and accountability over your health. Because if if we just prescribe you a weight loss pill and push you out the door, that's no different than what the broken health care system is doing. Are you guys doing peptides? We do. Yeah.
I think that they're phenomenal, a great tool in the tool belt. I think they're probably over-prescribed like everything. I think they're probably overutilized like everything. And I think there's no substitute for diet, lifestyle, and nutrition. And that's why we hammer home diet, lifestyle, nutrition, like be, make better choices.
But that being said, even when you try, I'm sure you've seen like everything has, I mean, even though it's, I know it's not healthy, but even what came out about Girl Scout cookies yesterday.
I don't know if you, oh my God.
They all have metal content. Literally 100% of Girl Scout cookies tested had metal particulates, including lead. Oh my gosh. Lead at a poisonous, toxic level. It had everything you can, every little negative thing that we've talked about is in it.
It's such a bummer.
But even Thin Mints, and I love Thin Mints, and I don't eat them all the time, but it's like, that was like nostalgia for me. My sister was a Girl Scout. I remember like every year, once a year, you get your Girl Scout cookies, which isn't healthy, but now it's not only not healthy, it's apparently like poisonous.
It's really bad.
Yeah, lead poisoning, the level of whatchamacallit's higher than in the highest levels allowed in water. I mean, like there's like 10 different things in there. I can't remember all of them, but it's all bad news, all really bad news.
It's rapidly happening. There's actually a precipitous decline in the amount of primary cares in America, which is a problem because we have an aging population that needs primary cares and primary cares are the first line of defense.
But Harvard did an interview study where they interviewed primaries across America and they're projecting a 30% decline in the amount of people in clinicians who practice primary care, which is going to be catastrophic. And the life raft is going to be large language models, AI, proactive, predictive, like where I was going, like at Wastewell, our clinic.
Like I was saying, if we get a DEXA and a VO2 max, so a DEXA scan scans your body. Have you ever heard of this?
Oh yeah, that's awesome.
It's different. That does a full body MRI, which is phenomenal.
But you're on the right path. It is scary. It's intimidating.
