I'll have to do something on Lyme because, you know, I've had a number of... I'm very familiar with Lyme and it's...

chronology and its etiology um and the co-infections you know the bacterial and the parasitic co-infections which very often go missed and some of these people suffer these low-grade infections for a decade um you know it's not the kind of symptoms that drive them to the er so they just suffer with it that's right and misdiagnosed mimics arthritis it mimics you know migraines um you know uh

the fact that we're bringing awareness so they can test for it.

You know, I talk a lot on my platform about mold, mycotoxins, parasites, viruses, heavy metals, like the things that don't show up on a standard lab, you know, because some Lyme patients maybe, except for some liver enzymes or those things, you know, they're not on standard panels and they just go missed.

And so if there's no awareness around it, then...

So just sort of wrapping things up, how much did your practice as a family practitioner, how much has that impacted your role in the Surgeon General's office?

That's great.

So Dr. Herodopoulos, first of all, thank you for coming on the Ultimate Human Podcast.

It's amazing.

Where can my audience find out more about what the Office of the Surgeon General is doing?

I saw that there is a current priorities of the U.S.

Surgeon General.

So I'm going to put a link to that.

Reports and publications, I'm going to put a link to that.

And leadership changes that impact public health.

So I'm going to give links to those on your site.

You know, I always wind down my podcast by asking my guests the same question.

And there's no right or wrong answer to this question.

But what does it mean to you to be an ultimate human?

You're on the Ultimate Human Podcast.
