People need to understand your body is always producing cancers. There's something called the Hayflick limit that a cell divides 50 times and then should have the decency to die. But sometimes it becomes an inflammatory cell, a grouchy old man cell, a senile cell. Senescent, yeah. Other times it becomes a cancer. And when that happens, your innate immune system, your NK natural killer cells,

typically detect it and kill it. But sometimes it evades those and they become a cancer.

work i mean your upside is at least that it's not very likely and by the way it's probably going to help you if not under directly in the cancer it will help you on getting rid of your viral loads it's about really giving your immune system a chance to take a breath and and defend you You know, one of the things we're very proud of, I'd like to mention, is our HealthSpan prize.

Yeah, this is fascinating. Yeah. So folks who don't know me from the XPRIZE perspective, 30 years ago, hard to believe, I launched our first $10 million prize. So I offered up $10 million for the first person who could build a private spaceship, go to 100 kilometers, land, and make the trip again with the same ship within two weeks.

This was way before SpaceX and Blue Origin and space was not a common conversation. And the idea of commercial space didn't exist. An amazing woman, Anusha Ansari, who's now the CEO, I serve as chairman of the XPRIZE, put up the 10 million for a family. I put up the first, you know, I don't know, I didn't have that much money back then, the first 100,000 or so. And it worked.

And on the heels of the X Prize getting won, the first one in 2004, I was able to attract Elon Musk on my board, Larry Page, James Cameron. It's like, you know, everybody loves a winner. And so we turned the foundation into an organization that was launching large scale global competitions. And we're saying, I don't care where you went to school, what you've ever done.

If you demonstrate and solve this problem, you win the money. So we've launched 30 prizes, about $550 million of competitions, driving close to $8 billion in R&D. And this is not like a Nobel Prize that you award somebody for something done 30 years ago or 10 years ago.

This is a prize where we say, okay, the first person to do this, it was modeled after the prize that Lindbergh won flying from New York to Paris. It was a $25,000 prize offered for the first person to fly. Nine teams made the effort. Lindbergh won. Wow. I did not know that. And so we've launched 30 prizes, mapping the ocean floor, pulling water out of the atmosphere.
