But too much of anything can have unintended consequences. And in this case, phytoestrogens, if you feed a child soy milk, they will develop breast buds. The breast will be slightly enlarged compared to a child who's not because of the estrogenic components. So it really begs to look at what we eat. And we were made to eat a varied diet. We're made to eat real food, so not processed food.

Yeah, dolphins are pretty interesting because they're the only creature that we know of that has what is an equivalent to human Alzheimer's disease. And what we see in the dolphins is it correlates to insulin signaling. And we know that's also true in adults and humans, is that when insulin signaling is off, type two diabetes happens, it's very hard to modulate sugar.

And when your sugar goes up in your blood, you have to maintain what we call the same osmolality. So fluid goes in to dilute out the sugar and your blood vessels get stressed and it affects your brain and other parts of your body. Dolphins can actually modulate their insulin signaling, and they do so through a connectivity with others. And they do throw as part of their daily life.

They do with exercise, they do it with social connections. And we certainly have to learn with that, right? You see, when people have very few social connections, they actually tend to be higher body mass index, they tend to eat more, they don't have the controls that they do when they're with other people. They actually normally exercise less and do less.

Obviously, these are generalizations, but it's something we concern. Get a load of this. Totally an aside with Alzheimer's, what we just learned from AI was that the shingles vaccine, which is a vaccine to prevent shingles that we classically do in our country after age 50, looks like it may reduce Alzheimer's by almost 50%. We knew Alzheimer's was plaques in the brain.

Now we're learning that it's an infection of a neuron, in this case caused by the virus shingles, the chickenpox virus, that can lead to the plaques. Pretty powerful observation.

So the way these studies are done is your electronic health records are bags of words. And with AI now and these large language models, we can convert that to structured data and do analysis. So in three separate studies, this was observed. So nobody could ever do a randomized trial over 30 years and say,
