It's in the black pepper family.

You can get it in Middle Eastern spice stores.

And it basically kind of tastes like black pepper with a little kind of Szechuan heat to it.

But it's a senolated compound you really can't find anywhere else.

So I encourage people to put some of that in their pepper grinder to add that to their daily diet.

That's amazing.

They don't even teach you the basics.

Absolutely.

In fact, having an MD after your name is basically advertising the world that you know nothing about nutrition, that you are completely ignorant about the entire field of nutrition.

So the average doctor these days gets four hours of nutrition training out of thousands of hours of preclinical instruction.

I actually chose the medical school with the largest nutrition training in the country.

They actually have a nutrition school at Tufts.

19 hours.

But that's the most out of thousands of hours.

Right.

And most of it is basic biochemistry of vitamins and like scurvy, pellagra, stuff we don't even see anymore.

And it's like curb cycle.

So it's not actually clinical nutrition.

Using nutrition diet to actually prevent, arrest, reverse disease.

That's missing in even those few hours that people get.
