Now, second bucket is the, what you were getting at is the longevity marketing.
All these companies are
There's clinics that charge up to $250,000 and you can get plasmapheresis and hyperbaric oxygen chambers and stem cells, all these unproven things.
No less, all these anti-aging supplements that have absolutely no data
to make these claims.
And so there's companies that are doing every test under the sun, total body, MRI.
And so this is yet another category which is fueling the interest.
And then finally, there's actually real stuff that we can do now
that we should be doing.
And especially, you know, when we were talking about, you know, this make America healthy again, or whatever you want to call Maha, we could do this.
We have the tools to do this now, but we're not doing it.
So that's what I think is the real opportunity for today.
Yeah, this is of course what we're after.
And, uh,
Longevity, if you have dementia or other horribly debilitating diseases, no one really wants that.
But the whole idea is how can we extend healthspan where you're free of these age-related diseases.
You actually have a very high quality of life.
And to be at 85 plus and not have any cancer
not have any neurodegenerative disease, and have no heart disease.
That's really the goal we can achieve now.
