And they're maybe not thinking about the early life, what we call antecedents, you know, the beginnings.

But for a lot of cancers that even occur in, you know, older people,

there are hints that they start much earlier than that.

And in fact, like it surprises a lot of people, but there's an association between your birth weight and like a woman's risk of breast cancer or a man's risk of prostate cancer.

And it's also true for colon cancer.

And you might say, what, what does that mean?

And yeah,

Uh, we, we don't exactly know, but there's a couple of possibilities, you know, um, one is to get to a bigger birth weight.

You just need to have more cells, right?

Uh, cancer always starts in a cell or a group of cells that get that mutation.

All right.

And they can, they can, uh, go along without turning into cancer for decades, right?

But if you have a mutation while you're in utero, while you're a fetus, you have a lot of growing to do.

And so if that mutation happens early, it can expand.

And we've tried really hard for him to, you know, love broccoli.
