let's say it was 100,000, maybe it might've been a little bit less.

But if I sold those 8,333 bottles, my profit would be about 197,000.

So for my initial, you know, so that's the profit.

Exactly.

Repeat customer.

And then also too, you would be cheaper down the road because you wouldn't have had to pay the person to design the supplement and set up your Shopify, right?

So that's the least amount, the least amount of money I could make would be $197,000 for selling 8,333 bottles of turmeric supplement, something that's, you know, almost likely useless and has a risk of liver failure.

And so if you're an influencer with two or three million followers, how easy is it to sell 8000 bottles?

Yeah.

So my big belief is supplements are the wheel, the financial wheel that drives the wellness and Maha industry.

And I believe that if we had regulation of supplements in the same way we had regulation of pharmaceuticals, you'd be cutting off this funding pipeline for a lot of these people.

And we would have a dramatic difference in the amount of disinformation out there.

That regulation is never gonna happen in the United States, but maybe somewhere else.

I think that's so hard because it's such a broad topic.

I mean, I would get back to the idea that women and people who get pregnant need to have access to abortion care whenever they want to have it, that this idea that abortion should be rare, legal, and accessible, like take the rare out of it.

It should just be what it is.

And I think that, to me, that's still, because this is saying, like, I've been in this business for, you know, 40 years.

I'm still having the same conversation.

So that's probably got, like, the biggest sticking myth and, you know, the stickiness to it that the politicization, politicization, I don't know.

I don't know how to say that.
