So we're going into business, I say, Sam, come on down and go through family life. I was taking them to go see Richard Branson in Necker. And so we went through Orlando on the way down. He goes through it. Now, this guy is extremely successful and wealthy and has many doctors. He goes through, we find two brain aneurysms. Wow. He's in surgery a week later. Holy cow. And he's cured now.

But these were, this would have been super bad news. And it's like, that's insane that you have the best medical care and you didn't know this was going on inside your body. So the imaging finds cancers, tumors, and aneurysms. We do a clearly coronary CT to look for soft plaque. We do a low-dose lung CT.

We do a DEXA scan, which you're familiar with, which is looking at your visceral fat, your muscle tissue, your body fat, your bone density. We do retinal scan, we do skin scans, looking for any kind of moles or any kind of early cancer. We have a brand new machine for women, which is a new type of breast scan, which is ultrasound. It does not, you know, compress the breast.

It does not, you know, compress the breast.
It works for people with breast implants or dense breasts. It's amazing ultrasound. It's a joy for women to use, and it's something that makes it a lot easier for them. Wow. So those are the imaging paradigms. You have blood work in the skin. We have been, all of the blood work, it's 150 blood biomarkers that are tested. Your full microbiome, looking at your gut. We do toxin testing.

We do toxin testing.
We do food allergy testing. There's a whole bunch more. Your full genome, not just SNPs, just not like 23andMe, which is single nucleotide polymerase. It's all 3.2 billion letters, and it's looking at it and understanding this. All the scanning, it takes about four and a half hours. All the scanning is to answer two primary questions. What's going on inside your body you know about right now?

What's going on inside your body you know about right now?
and what's likely to happen to you so we can prevent it, we can optimize it, right? That's the goal. In the what's going on right now, what's amazing are the numbers. We've had like five, 6,000 people come through, 2% have a cancer they don't know about, right? It's like, hate to tell you this and happy to tell you this, we found it, let's do something about it. 2.5% have an aneurysm.

14.4% have either a neurocognitive, cardiovascular, or metabolic disease they need to take care of right now. I was giving you the stats, 70% of a heart attack without any earlier. You don't feel a cancer until stage three or stage four. and your probabilities of a full remission surviving it is much lower.

It's like when you go into the hospital not feeling well and having a pain and the doctor says, I'm sorry to tell you this, guess what? It didn't happen that morning. It's been going on for probably years and you wanna find it. When's the best time to find cancer? It's like at the very beginning. Yes. What's even more concerning is that 70% of the cancers that kill us are never tested for.

So it's not the breast cancer, the prostate cancer, the colon cancer, right? We test for those. It's the glioblastoma or it's pancreatic cancer. It's the things that are not routinely tested for, right? And so one other test we do is a Grail gallery test, which is from a blood sample. We're able to look at 40 or 50 different cancers. So when cancer is growing, those cells are,

So when cancer is growing, those cells are,
are growing rapidly in some rupture and they release DNA into your bloodstream. So from what's called a liquid biopsy, we can determine if there's something that we should be looking for. Wow. But what is amazing about the Fountain Life experience is it's multimodal, meaning it's not any one thing, right?
