That's why I think we're seeing, we're seeing more cases. Well, that may be explaining part of it, George, but I think, you know, when we think about the spectrum of brain disorders, whether it's autism or ADD or the fact that one in six kids have some neurodevelopmental issue, you know, there's something else going on.

And when you look at the brains of these kids, they have a lot of neuroinflammation, meaning their brains are on fire, whether it's autism or ADD. Now, some kind of level of adaptation to hunter-gatherer way of living required us to have, sort of be able to shift focus and do a lot of different things. So there was some adaptation. So some might be a normal evolutionary process,

So there's a spectrum of people who have sort of normal human biology, right? Yeah. But there's also a lot of these people who suffer from ADHD who have a lot of things wrong with them, a lot of nutritional deficiencies, gut issues, toxins, and brain inflammation.
