And let's talk about what's potentially causing it. And for a person who's struggling or a person who wants to be optimized, Is oxidative stress their big problem? Are they going to benefit from a hydrogen type kind of therapy? Or is it something else? Are they dealing with other issues? Is it endocrine?
You want to be able to have the same sophisticated diagnostic processes that we bring to bear for all kinds of diseases like cancer and heart disease and sepsis into this aging piece. And I think you and Peter are actively working on this. I think it's fantastic. Thank you.

Yeah, so it was a very funny story. So a friend of mine sends me a podcast and says, there's this guy on Rogan and he's talking about methylation and hydrogen. Can you take a look at this and see if this is real?

And I am a Rogan fan, but I don't download his stuff every week. I can't keep up. Most ICU docs and nephrologists don't. I don't think his audience is heavy in nephrology. And this is not a criticism, but some of them are like three hours long. And so it's not like you can skim it. It's like 18 holes of golf. It's a commitment. No, it's a commitment. And so you get half for it.

Anyway, so my friend sends it to me. I look at it. I see you there and you're talking about methylation and you're talking about hydrogen water. And I'm going to be honest with you, I told you, my initial reaction is, what the F is this dude talking about? I'm like, I have not heard of any of this. Now, because I'm a physician, I suffer from a fair amount of arrogance.

Now, because I'm a physician, I suffer from a fair amount of arrogance.
And because I'm an academic physician, it's probably tenfold worse. So I had an initial reaction of, if I don't know about this, it must be nonsense. But You know, I looked it up, and the methylation stuff is real. I was embarrassed I didn't know about it. I remain embarrassed I didn't know about it. And the hydrogen stuff is real. And I was so motivated after I read about it.

So the hydrogen literature is over now, I think, 1,500 PubMed articles, peer-reviewed. The first paper about hydrogen is 2007 in Nature. Wow. That is not like some nothing journal for people who don't follow the book. I've put links to that several times. That Nature article is a beautiful paper. And I came to appreciate that hydrogen is a very powerful substance.

But I'm going to try to explain it to folks. Mm-hmm. in my way, if I may, to say this is what I think. So what people need to understand is you hear about alkaline water, you hear about lithium water, you hear about all this water and how it's going to cure you. And I get why that initial concept bothers people because it sounds hokey. So let's not talk about where you get your hydrogen.
