So I think the first thing that everybody should understand is when you're dealing with an environmentally induced immune problem, there are stages. So there is a pre-autoimmune stage, then there's three stages of actual autoimmunity. Most people who have

several different parts of their body that aren't functioning the way that they think they should be functioning, or it's a significant drop from their baseline, are suffering from that pre-autoimmune condition, the environment essentially driving their immune system into a chronic inflammatory imbalanced state.

Yeah, I mean, in reality, food is the biggest part of the environment that you're exposed to. I mean, you know, you're consuming food three, four, five times a day. Depending on what that is, that could be regular, continuous inflammatory exposure. So the reason we focus so much on food is, number one, It's the biggest part of the environmental conversation.

And number two, it's the thing that you have direct control over. You don't have a lot of control over the quality of the air that you breathe on a daily basis. You have some control over it, but not as much as what you consume. Right. So that's why we really focus so much on it. It is the biggest piece of the puzzle and it's the most movable piece of the puzzle.

Right.

Right.

Right.

Currently, we're at 15% of the US population with a known diagnosed autoimmune disease, but most autoimmune diseases have a latent period of somewhere between three to eight years. So if you kind of want to back extrapolate that data, we're looking at maybe upwards of 25% of the US.

It's very clear from the literature that that's not true. I mean, we have very robust data in the NHANES trial. If you look at the percent positivity of a positive ANA over time during NHANES, you see doubling of that percent population. And NHANES in that regard has only been analyzed, I think, back to 2015 at this point.

So no question, there's no way to discuss this other than scientifically true fact that autoimmune disease is on the rise. And only in the last 15 years, let's say, which is a very, very alarming timeframe to experience something like that.
