But if we stay healthy and we stay active, we can prevent it. We can live to be healthy, happy centenarians. We really can with AI algorithms and large language models. Like the vision of the future for me is we're monitoring you 24 seven. Like at Ways to Well, we tie into wearables. We monitor your REM sleep, your deep sleep.

If I have your VO2 max and a DEXA combined with your blood work, I can literally algorithm out the risk of all major chronic diseases and where you fall on that scale. And we can get strategic.

I know after the age of 60, as a petite woman, you're going to have a bone mineral density decline. That's just common fact, but I can slow that BMD decline. Why is that important? One of the biggest risk factors for petite women over the age of 65 is a bone fracture. If you get a bone fracture like a hip or a vertebrae, it limits your ability to work out, stay active and stay healthy.

Step by step, we can methodically eliminate each of these risk factors, indirectly driving healthspan and then buying time as we innovate and create, you know, in 20 years, imagine how different healthcare will be.

Exactly what I said. I tell them view it as car insurance. It's there if something catastrophic happens, like you need insurance. If you get if you have a heart attack, if you like, there's big expenditures that come up where you need that catastrophic care.
