And I would just say also, if you do step back and look at everything holistically, one of the biggest problems with the healthcare industry right now is that it's so siloed. We have over 100 different medical and surgical subspecialties. And the business model of American healthcare right now is volume. It's how many people can you see. And so that's what you get paid for.

You don't get paid for outcomes. You get paid for volume. And so- That has incentivized a structure of health care where it's most profitable to actually be seen by as many specialists as humanly possible. And that's what the average American is dealing with.

They go to the primary care doctor with a list of issues and they get eight, 10 referrals and they spend their life going through revolving doors of these different health care. offices and not actually really feeling better and they feel disappointed. And that's why I think people are frustrated.

So we've got all these doctors who are incentivized to really be head down in their specialty lane and not actually step out and look at the big picture of how things are connected when in fact it's all connected. We don't see the body anymore. And I'm just telling you this from like sheer experience of being In medical school, we are not trained to see the body as a unified system.

We're trained to see it as 20, 30 different parts. And so no one's seeing the forest for the trees. But like Kelly's saying, look at what's happening. You look at what's happening with kids. We've got ADHD through the roof, autism through the roof. These are neurodevelopmental issues. Then you look at midlife. Well, Women and men are depressed. We have huge rates of mental illness. 25% of women.

25% of women now are on SSRI. I mean, we're living in like the wealthiest, safest country in human history and 25% of people are on SSRI. That's insane. Then you go into menopause, perimenopause, that age group, and it's sort of brain fog. And then we have full-blown Alzheimer's going up. So we've got all these neurodevelopmental issues and neurodegenerative issues sort of across the lifespan.
