Yeah, you know, it's interesting. Here we are in Boston and the Mass General Brigham is supplying the polygenic risk score to their patients. They're the first health system to do that. And so they're getting a readout for their risk of the various types of cancer and heart disease.

And of course, soon it'll also be Alzheimer's disease too, that they will get that composite risk as part of their care, not like they get charged extra. All the health systems should be doing that. And again, they should be adding these other layers of data so that you know about yourself what to be on guard about and also to take action.

And this is a really critical point is that generally people might not be motivated to do all these positive things, but when they find out they have this specific risk, the chances of them going after it is so much greater. We've learned that from studies as well.

Absolutely. And just to mention, there was a big Finnish study where they took people and they gave them their polygenic risks for heart disease. And the people who got a high risk, they changed their lives. I mean, they did everything we're talking about today. So it wasn't that they were going to do it when they're healthy.

Only when they got something to tangible evidence for them, for those individuals, that's when action was taken.

The problem, Mel, is the things that they're not doing.

And so what we're talking about is poor diet with too much ultra-processed foods, for example, not nearly enough exercise, and that's both aerobic as well as resistance-type exercise. And then, of course, getting enough sleep, particularly deep sleep. Sleep is so much bigger than we had thought years ago, and having sleep health, particularly promoting deep sleep, is really important.
