Well, there are these moments in medicine, like the discovery of insulin or penicillin.

These medicines taught us about the diseases, they taught us about the biology, and they save millions of people's lives.

And that's exactly what these medicines are doing.

They're teaching us about the biology, just as we talked about, and they're going to save millions of people's lives, and they already are.

And here's why.

Because obesity in and of itself is a disease that affects so many of us.

But obesity is also associated with over 200 other diseases.

200.

So diseases like diabetes, like heart disease, certain types of cancer, hypertension, high cholesterol, all these things.

And what is the number one killer of Americans today?

It is heart disease.

And if you are a woman and you have obesity,

your risk for developing heart disease is 50% higher.

And if you are a man, it's 70% higher.

And if you already developed type 2 diabetes, it is 90% higher.

So if we can effectively treat obesity, we can treat 200 other obesity-related diseases and literally save lives.

Well, I think that's really...

Yeah, sure.

Yeah, yeah.
