And then we'll just run this for three or four years and eventually your career's over. Right, right, right. Exactly. Right. In addition to people saying, look, I have more... money than I have time. So I don't want to wait three or four years for these headaches to go away. I can't wait two years for me to stop having diarrhea all the time.

Like I'd rather spend an extra a hundred dollars to do more testing that maybe we didn't need then wait six months and then come back and say, okay, now let's try this additional. Right. Like this trial and error thing. Totally. Right. We just said, what if we can go past all that and just get as much stuff as we can possibly get done initially. So it takes a couple of months.

Some people get done in two weeks, but on average it takes a couple of months. Now, what does that involve? It's a little bit different, but just making up as a direct example. It's everything from a ton of blood work, urine. How much blood work? Like how many markers are you checking? Directly, we're probably going to test 115.

But off of that, we're going to run over 20,000 calculations on those. And why I'm saying that is it's not the marker. It's not, where's your free testosterone? Where's your cortisol? Where's your sodium? Blah, blah, blah. In addition to that, you have a whole bunch of calculations. You have relationships. You have patterns that you can recognize within that.

And so this is when people have traditionally gotten blood work done, they'll look at a single marker and say that marker is high or that marker is low. Now they're saying that's high or low based on a number of problems. In other words, they look at the sheet and the sheet says that number is green, then I must be good.

Or that number says I'm red, like I must be bad. Well, there's a whole host of issues with this approach. First and foremost is the fact that what you're being compared against is called a reference range. So if you look at your albumin or your sodium, pick your favorite marker here. And it says, oh, your albumin is 7.0.

They're going to be like, wow, you're really, really high because the average person, 95% of people will be within four to five. What's albumin? What is that? It's a protein. It is one example, but it's a protein that carries around carbon dioxide through your body. Cortisol has a whole bunch of transportation. It to me is reason I bring it up is it's my favorite marker of all things in the world.

It's on every blood test you've ever gotten done. Almost nobody has ever seen their albumin out of normal, but it will still tell you everything that's going on in your body. So it's the one I pick because people go, oh, look, my albumin is normal. And I'll be able to tell them actually it's not. Like really consistently.
