Interesting. So it sounds like more of a preventative approach. It's preventive, but it's also very proactive, and it's much more broad in its focus. It's not just about how long can I keep you alive? It's how long can I keep you thriving?

So it's the leading cause of death for, in the United States, it's the leading cause of death globally, and it's the leading cause of death for men and the leading cause of death for women. So even though I don't think it gets that much attention because maybe because it's so common, we just sort of tune it out a little bit.

We can't forget, you know, 19 million people a year globally are dying from cardiovascular disease. Now this is, certainly tragic and ironic given that of the four chronic diseases, it's the one that A, we have the best understanding of, and C, we probably have the best treatments for.

So, you know, we can come back to metabolic disease, because I think a lot has changed there, but we certainly understand what the drivers of cardiovascular disease are. And there's several, right? So lipids, blood pressure, smoking, poor metabolic health. Those are the big, big, big drivers, right?

So if you're insulin resistant, if you have high blood pressure, if you have high what's called ApoB, which is a particular measurement of lipids, if you smoke, those things are going to drive your risk through the roof. There are people who can certainly get away with having one or two of those things not optimized.

But if you're in the business of trying to prevent the disease, you want all four of those things fully optimized. Some of those are purely behavioral. Some of those are done through medications. We talked about blood pressure as an example. Lots of ways to control your blood pressure without pharmacology. But if you need pharmacology, it's also pretty easy to manage it that way.

So that, you know, really it shouldn't be the leading cause of death. It just simply shouldn't be. But most people don't have the right timeline on it. They don't realize how long this disease is brewing. So how old are you? 42. Okay. So, you know, the probability that a 42-year-old's arteries, let's just say tragically you died in a car accident tomorrow.
