I mean, that really adds up over time.

But the reality is, I mean— Do you still see patients?

You actually— Well, so the way that I work today is I have a team of practitioners.

I run a telemedicine, a virtual practice called the Health Institute.

And so we have people come in regularly, but I have a group of practitioners that work on my team.

So I don't see people one-on-one, but I do group calls once a week and I'll troubleshoot with like the patient.

Everyone can attend, ask me questions live, go through that with everybody.

The hard cases I go through, I work with the practitioners on the cases.

So I'm not doing one-on-one calls with people right now, but I do run a virtual practice and work with cases every day.

Yeah, and listen, the amount they'll save long-term, my point is that you will pay a lot for insurance if you maintain the same condition and the poor health that you have.

Versus if you can reverse the condition and pay less for insurance, much less, that will save you some money.

But overall, I mean, the reality is...

Functional medicine or what I do, I'd probably call it more personalized cellular medicine, but more of that personalization there, which I think is a little different.

It's a form of functional medicine, but I think it goes kind of a step further.

But the thing that people have to think about is like, what's your life worth and your quality of health, right?

I mean, there's an investment there.

There's no doubt about it.

But I will say, if we changed our entire healthcare system to where doctors, rather than prescribing drugs, the only thing they did was prescribe...

Diets, supplements, and lifestyle changes like exercise, that's not expensive.

That doesn't have to be expensive.
