If I asked you right now or folks watching, are you sure there's nothing going on inside your body to know about? 100%, are you positive? Most people truly have no idea unless you've gone through what I call an upload, right? You don't know what's going inside your body. And here's some stats. 70% of heart attacks. have no precedent. There's no chest clutching or no shortness of breath.

Even if you got what was called a calcium score, have you ever gotten a calcium score? Okay, a calcium score has been for a few decades the most popular cardiovascular test. It's looking at a CT of your heart, looking for calcium. But calcified plaque in your coronary arteries, coronary arteries are the arteries that feed the muscle of the heart.

It's looking at a CT of your heart, looking for calcium. But calcified plaque in your coronary arteries, coronary arteries are the arteries that feed the muscle of the heart.
If you block a coronary artery and it deprives the heart tissue from glucose and oxygen, the heart tissue dies and you have a heart attack. And if enough of it dies, you're dead. Wow. Right? So when people talk about a coronary disease or heart attacks, that's what we're talking about. We're talking about the blood vessels feeding the muscle of your heart being blocked.

If you get a calcium score, you know, they range from like zero to over a thousand. If your plaque, your cholesterol plaques and so forth are calcified, it's like, imagine a pipe here that's pumping the blood through. If it's calcified on the side of the arteries and not blocking the pipe, it's stable, it's fine. But what we've discovered is that there's a second kind of plaque.

If it's calcified on the side of the arteries and not blocking the pipe, it's stable, it's fine. But what we've discovered is that there's a second kind of plaque.
It's called soft plaque. And it doesn't show up in a calcium score. And so you can have a calcium score of zero and have a heart attack that day because this soft plaque is in the wall of the artery. And what we see is it can evulse. It can break out and a glob of fat will block the coronary artery and starve your muscle.

And what we see is it can evulse. It can break out and a glob of fat will block the coronary artery and starve your muscle.
And so what is brand new over the last like three years is a new type of technology, which is an AI overlay that can find the soft plaque in your heart, in your coronary arteries. And if it identifies soft plaque, your job is to either reduce it or calcify it. And it's the only thing that matters.

So there's a company called Clearly that we use that you do your coronary CT, it takes 10 minutes, and that data is uploaded. This AI model finds a soft plaque, gives you a report, and that's all you should care about. If it's blocking your coronary, then you might need... some type of emergent treatment.

But if it's not, but you have a high soft plaque burden, your job is to reduce it or calcify it so it can't like sneak up in the middle of the night. I had a fraternity brother of mine who died from a heart attack in the middle of the night was due to come down to Fountain Life in a month. And it just slayed me, right? What are the tests that people get when they go to Fountain Life?

So let's break it up into three parts. There's imaging. So when you come through Fountain Life, It's a full body MRI. Like a prenuvo type of scan or something. Prenuvo type of stuff and more so it's a full body, a brain, a brain vasculature. So in the full body, we're looking for any kind of tumors, cancers, any kind of anomaly, any kind of nodules in the lung, looking for aneurysms.

I'll mention this because it's public knowledge. A friend, Sam Nazarian, I don't know if you know Sam, he owns, started SLS Hotels and one of the major hoteliers. And we have a partnership with Fountain and Sam. He's building out 25 resorts, six-star resorts and residential. He's gonna be building Fountain Life into all of these around the world, which is amazing.
