Now we know that being dehydrated by as little as 1% can have significant, both clinical and statistically significant reductions in physical performance and cognitive capacity, mood, arithmetic, retention, sleep, all things like that. So I can look within the labs and go every single thing on your labs is within the reference range. You don't have a clinical disease, Jen.

You don't have a disease. But this is why you're performing slightly suboptimally.

In that particular case, it might be you're just slightly dehydrated. But not that day. Because we'll see that, right? It's not like, oh, you didn't drink enough water.

No, no. So we'll see that in your blood as well. We have a number of short term, medium and long term markers to let us cross reference and go, oh, you know what? Actually, we're seeing dehydration for her, but her medium and long term markers are fine. So she just didn't drink enough water that day. False finding. Don't worry about it.

Some of them. Some of them change very acutely. Okay. Some of them are very chronic. And that's why you need to have a combination of both and be able to look at that independently and say, yeah, yeah, again, she's a little bit active. It could be sick. It could be trained or worked out really hard. Could be the food you had the night before.

Depending on what you're looking at in any host of functional areas. Right. Then you have to be able to cross-reference, again, short-term and long-term as well as symptomology. So how are you feeling? We're seeing some signs here of poor sleep. Oh, my sleep's tremendous. Oh, okay. Then maybe it's normal for your physiology.

So you have to be able to match this entire thing, which honestly kind of goes back and answers your original question. When you say you don't treat the individual markers, this is exactly what I'm referring to. So we will almost always look at somebody's blood And we'll hear this all the time. Again, I've had a bunch of blood work done. Nothing's ever showed up really great.
