Our job is to have an intelligent conversation with patients, to do the deep dive, to uncover the root cause, and to explain to the patient what is happening with their body and why, and to give you, the patient, sovereignty and autonomy over your health. And so an example would be a cancer screening.
You know, at our company, our cancer screening looks at you at the cellular level and can diagnose over 200 different types of cancer at stage zero. 99% survival rate at stage zero. We know that a large majority of firefighters and first responders will develop cancer in their lifetime.
At a minimal, why would we not be pre-screening all of our... Because they're exposed to toxins, chemicals, fires, smoke, smoke inhalation. A lot of our military personnel have been exposed to Agent Orange and all these different compounds in the battlefield. They disproportionately have a higher cancer rate.
And we could be screening those individuals with real-world science and preventing cancer, but we don't. There's a lot of money made in chemotherapy. Did you know that the majority of an oncologist's income comes from marking up the medication itself? The chemotherapy itself is a profit center for the clinician that prescribes the chemotherapy.
Well, that's what you're going to see with everything. GLP-1s, the weight loss drugs.
It's become a frontline defense. And I have a different... I'm buddies with Callie. I'm buddies with Joe. I'm buddies with Jillian Michaels. They hate Ozempic. My thing about it is I don't hate it. I'm pragmatic. It's a tool in the tool belt. And when utilized appropriately... it can change and save lives. Yes. But it is not a first line defense. Yes. And it should not be used in children.
And prescribing Ozempic- That's not sensible. Yeah. Prescribing Ozempic without first talking about diet, lifestyle, and nutrition is like brushing your teeth while eating fucking Oreos. It's delusional. And that's what we're trying to do. And you go, well, wait, why? I told you why, Tucker. They're printing fucking money off these medicines. The insurance company loves Ozempic.
The pharmaceutical industry loves Ozempic. Is there a big benefit to it? Absolutely. It can help reduce the risk of chronic disease because the number one risk for almost all of these chronic diseases is metabolic disease and obesity.
And we are chronically ill and obese as a society. And so if we can get that weight off, great. But if we don't talk about diet, lifestyle, and nutrition... We're just putting a bandaid on it. We got to get to the root cause. And then if we're not going to address the food issue and we're not going to fix our food issue, you know, it isn't a matter of people eating bad or good.
Like it clearly is like diet is very, very important. It's the most important thing. But I want to be clear. Even if you try to eat healthy in America, it's hard. It's, I mean, we have over, so, and I think it was the 80s, we had 700 FDA-approved ingredients in our food. Now there's thousands, I think it's over 10,000 ingredients. In Europe, it's 700.
There's over 10, petrochemicals, everything in our food sources, preservatives, food dyes, all of it. And they're all causing an increase in metabolic disease and these problems. They're making our food more processed, more addictive, more abusive. Yeah. And then we're getting chronically ill and chronically obese. And then that leads to being chronically on medications.
And then that leads to trillions of dollars. Like when we talk about big pharma, the insurance companies made $1.5 trillion last year, trillion. Pharma is still in the billions. I think it was six or 700 billion, just still an insane amount of money in revenue. But the insurance companies are two and a half size, the size of Big Pharma. And at least the pharma companies make something.
I think every drug on the market is probably overprescribed. I mean, why are we prescribing antidepressants? They barely, there is a place for every compound. I don't want to paint something that's all bad. But should the amount of people be on antidepressants?
And there are alternatives to that. Again, at our practice, we have a product called Wave Neuroscience. We scan your brain. We assess where neurons are misfiring. This is all stuff that's not covered by insurance, but it has an astronomically higher success rate and over 80% at helping depression, anxiety, and insomnia.
It's not covered by any insurance company because they force you back to SSRIs and you have to fail two or more SSRIs to get treatment. But why, Tucker? Yeah.
Yeah. Joe had a quote, Rogan had a quote, we don't have a gun problem, we have a mental health problem disguised as a gun problem.
No, and my thing is medications should not be the solution. No. They're the last option on the table. Yeah. We first have to take the time to deep dive and understand. And when you say walk me through a patient life, a 40-year-old woman comes into a clinic. She's tired. She's exhausted. She's raising a family. She's working a job. She's trying to be superwoman, be everything to everyone.
That's right. She goes in there, she's gained weight, she's tired, exhausted, doesn't sleep well, riddled with anxiety and stress. She's going to leave there on four or more prescription medicines. Because that's how the system was built. But if you were to come into a practice that is proactive, predictive, and preventative, that is truly trying to help you,
You're gonna spend an hour with that clinician. We're going to do a deep dive. We're gonna look at your blood work, your biomarkers, your hormones. We're gonna do an EEG to assess your brain health, your neurons. Is there anything going on here that's causing the noise, the static, the stress, the anxiety?
We're gonna talk to you about magnesium and supplements that maybe are deficient in your diet because our food sources are crap now. And we're gonna help dial all those things in. I can't tell you how many patients we've helped just through supplementing products like magnesium and zinc. We're all chronically deficient on so many minerals. It's not about a drug.
