But the journey starts with that. It starts with kind of that emotional kind of gamification, like learning about the data, gamifying it for yourself. But what we notice and what the wearable companies have told us is eventually everyone takes it off and everyone switches because each wearable is right for a person at a certain point in their life.

And then they learn how to live life, you know, informed by the data and then they take it off and then maybe they live without it and they move to the next thing and, and then life changes. And so sometimes the wearables come back. Sometimes the data comes back in a, probably when you least expect it.

That's right. And I mean, the CGMs, they have like a half-life, you know, you only keep them on for a week or two and then you got to switch it out. And so like naturally after a couple of weeks, if you're switching it out, maybe you get tired of it and just keep it off.

But what I've observed is like, yeah, even with CGMs, there's that moment initially where you're suddenly measuring or suddenly, you know, the glycemic index is brought to life because you're noticing the spike in your blood sugar after eating a apple or a cookie or whatever it is. And so I think that's, I almost feel like that's enough.

Like that, that emotional moment of like shock and awe when you see your glucose, like that's enough to open your eyes and you start shifting your behavior. And then eventually I don't think you need the data for very long.

I know what you're talking about. So it's plasmapheresis, right? So they take your plasma, they filter it all out and then put it back inside of you or they give it to you so you can hang it on an IV at some point.
