And then was there anything else that you've seen that's significantly moved the needle forward for you with sleep?
So this thread and why we talked about sleep is we were talking back to this retrospective that you were doing of why.
Yeah.
What were the things that I had some relationship with?
And there's reasons why it had to happen.
You created a beautiful life for you and your family.
You've saved the lives of so many people being, you know, a cardiac surgeon and that
lifestyle came with a trade-off, you know, you're working at all hours of the night, not sleeping well, et cetera, but it's good to understand.
Okay, great sleep.
And let me do the best that I can and continue improvement.
You're about to get into diet.
What do you want to say about diet?
And that's average.
Not just like you're eating a meal, your blood sugar goes up.
on the next checks but it's like you know that which is not measured cannot be improved upon so the question that i had for you is that you said it was an eye-opener you know being a medical doctor and not every panel you know that people order that that your doctor you know even though you're a doctor you have a doctor who looks at you and you have a cardiologist that you go to
Was that something that never came up before in your blood work?
You know, you said that the A1C was eye-opening for you?
And never had a fasting insulin done as well?
Yeah.
One interesting note that I want to add in about the A1C that was useful in my instance is that there are some people whose red blood cells are more sticky, which means that their red blood cells hang around a lot longer than maybe other individuals.
