There's too much information.

For you to be in denial of it.

But so my sort of, I would call it a health journey.

My health journey started in my early 20s.

And I was in a health food shop.

I was in a health food shop in Solana Beach or Encinitas down in Cardiff called Kai's and I ordered a juice or sandwich or something and then I was standing there waiting for my food and there was a tape.

There was one thing for sale on the counter and it was a tape by a guy named Dr. Joel Wallach.

who maybe you know the name.

And it was $1.

They weren't trying to make money from it.

They were just trying to get people to listen to stuff from a health guru.

So I bought that tape and this is when we had cassettes in the car.

And so I'm driving around, I would just listen to this thing.

And he started talking about how he had done like 17,000 animal autopsies, 3,000 human autopsies.

And he said, no one dies from old age.

There's no such thing.

You die of a deficiency of something over a long period of time.

You get a disease, blah, blah, blah.

And I just was like, wow, this is fascinating.

And I had already become world champ at this time.
