I look forward to learning more.
These are playing with different concentrations of oxygen in a little microenvironment for traumatic brain injury and neurodegeneration.
Do I think in five years that everyone's going to be sitting in hyperbaric chambers in order to offset neuron loss?
Probably not.
I think it's not cost-effective.
But
I will say that most of the things that are good for the body are good for the brain, keeping kind of anything that plaques the arteries, capillaries, and veins of the brain because it's so heavily vascularized, minimal, and minding those neuromodulators.
Obviously, drugs of abuse like methamphetamine can deplete dopamine neurons.
The data on MDMA, by the way,
I don't know, there's drug enforcement in the room.
The data, you know where they have most of the safety data or lack of safety data in some cases on MDMA?
Keep in mind, MDMA, ecstasy, is methylene, dioxin, methamphetamine.
Methamphetamine, we know, causes neurodegeneration.
No question.
It also causes bad teeth.
Do you know how?
Do you know how?
It turns people into mouth breathers.
Dry mouth and the teeth degenerate.
