It's possible, but again, we scan data to support it.

So a lot of things are like a nice idea, but show me the data.

And, you know, we just don't have that.

And of course, you know, I'm talking about promoting healthspan.

Maybe some of these things could reduce inflammation a little bit.

And, you know, that may be a good thing.

But what we're really looking for is, you know, have an effect on people's health that you can prove.

And that's where we're really short for any of these things.

Yeah, I mean, I think the supplement story, the problem is the companies make bold claims.

They have no data to support them.

And as you said, it's unregulated.

So they basically convince people of their supplement's impact without anything to back it up.

All right.

And

And there are many out there that are heavily marketing.

I mean, I'm seeing these in vending machines in airports now.

And I mean, just crazy.

Now, should anybody, my patients, they often come in and they have a long list of supplements, you know, that they take.

I say, you know, that's really good to enrich your urine.

but you don't need these things because you have a very healthy diet.
