I think I was asking you, so if the immune system gets weakened and it's really important for us to keep our immune system strong, right?

Is that the key to aging well?

And what can you do to bolster your immune system?

I'm good at that, Dr. Topol.

I've been reading all about how GLP-1s are very effective for all kinds of issues, brain health, you know, with Alzheimer's and all.

Do you see a point in time where everyone will be on a GLP-1 or anyone, I mean, just for their overall health and to prevent a lot of these aging diseases?

Yeah.

Well, and by the way, everyone, I'm talking to Dr. Eric Topol, who wrote a book called Super Agers.

And he is the director of the Scripps Research Translational Institute and a renowned cardiologist.

So he's talking, telling us what we can do to live longer, healthier lives.

And we have talked about sort of the anti-science trend in this Trump administration and

and RFK's move to not only, you know, get rid of super...

you know, qualified people from like the CDC Vaccine Advisory Board, but also these huge cuts to the NIH, which are, you know, really trying for research universities and for the great work that is done at the NIH.

But if you all have questions, I want you to put them in the chat and I'll try to get to them.

But I wanted to also kind of dig into those three areas.

You talked about Dr. Topol, you talked about

You know, diet, exercise, and sleep.

So, you know, exercise, there are a lot of definitions of exercise, you know.

And I read something different every day that I should get into level two and get my heart so I'm moving at least three times a week for 20 minutes, but even longer than that.

where I can talk, but I'm not talking very easily.
