So they never get this chance for that thymus rejuvenation.

So then they're constantly getting hit down and they're ending up with these diseases of aging that could have maybe been augmented, ameliorated, maybe pushed down had their thymus function been better in youth.

Good question.

Right, right.

Well, I mean, if you think about it,

Nothing that they do once they come back is additive to healing.

Their circadian rhythms are thrown off.

They're under mal-illuminative lights all day.

They're not getting sunlight.

Their vitamin D levels are atrocious.

Their blue light exposure at night is high.

Their stress levels are very high.

Their guts are inflamed from eating hyper-processed, hyper-palatable foods.

They have obesity or they're pre-diabetic.

So all these things now lead to this inflammatory state.

And they just got sick.

And their thymus didn't bounce back.

Mm-hmm.

So then they get sick the next time in two or three weeks.

Post-pandemic, a lot of my colleagues were like, dude, I get sick three or four times a winter now before I'd get sick once a winter.
