So that was, of course, very nice.

This was simacrutide.

I was part of that process myself, so I really enjoyed it.

It also was improved in terms of insulin secretion and food intake.

But again, it was felt that perhaps with higher doses, you could obtain even more.

And again, you know, a very meticulous, careful study was carried out and it was found that indeed you could increase the dose.

And it was possible now to create weight losses of up to 18 percent.

Yeah, and it turned out to reduce the risk of cardiovascular adverse events quite significantly.

It was a wonderful surprise.

That's incredible.

Oh, yes.

I get a lot of emails from people who are thanking and describing how this has changed their lives and how happy they are.

One thing is that people are happy.

Another thing is that it can be documented in hard data that it really helps.

So there are a whole set of things.

Some of them are related to the weight loss, I guess, in itself.

For instance, something like sleep apnea.

And there is wonderful data now that this really helps a lot.

But in addition to that, we need to understand why these compounds have this effect on the cardiovascular problems.

And the focus is really on inflammation and the immune system these days.
