And that comes down to the question of like, what is health and what is disease is understanding like in all of us human beings and all of our individual biologies, what is that window that is truly representative of homeostasis?
And then what is that window where you start to get out of bounds and that's actually going to cause some sort of disease.
So, so I think that is like a key piece here too, of realizing that we,
biology is just fundamentally a homeostatic balanced process and pulling one lever is going to trigger other levers that you might not even perhaps know about.
And that's a process of the fact that this is like an evolved system and not an engineered one, right?
Like evolution has built in a tremendous amount of redundancy into the systems.
It actually like actively resists rapid change, right?
And so like,
Cancer is actually an example of what rapid change looks like.
And I've seen this narrow optimization to your point of like longer lived animals and thing in like the longevity world.
So longevity world, okay, how do we live longer?
How do we actually like increase the number of healthy years we have?
I think there's a lot we can make happen in that area of saying like, okay, where are there fundamental mechanisms to all these age related diseases?
Can we treat those?
Can we develop therapies for those?
But then there's other folks who approach it and say, no, no, no, we're going to get radical life extension.
And the way we're going to do that is by turning back the clock and we're going to just, there's a clock and our ability to age, and we're just going to turn that back.
And then it's going to stay at that new set point and we're going to live forever.
The problem with that, again, asterisks, is that all of our cells are on different clocks, right?
We know, like, for example, in women in biology, the ovaries age at a much higher accelerated rate than other tissues in the body.
