And I think the whole world is shifting where this is the value.

Yeah, cardiovascular disease in general, and to connect the dots there with everything we've talked about, which is crazy.

I spend a lot of time focused in cardiovascular health with some of my businesses and everything else, and I'm a functional medicine doctor by training.

Cardiovascular disease is so mystical, and I'm going to say that, unfortunately, things like high blood pressure,

are so misunderstood.

And my personal opinion of this is we call hypertension a diagnosis.

And I arguably always say that high blood pressure is a symptom.

It is a downstream output.

to bad upstream inputs and we're so busy treating this downstream issue that we're not dealing with the upstreams right what what are the things that we can control i always control the controllables right like yeah what what can i control up here so that this doesn't happen and it's like well you didn't turn the faucet off but you just keep pouring towels on the floor and i i

Turn the faucet off.

Like there is an easy fix here.

And I think things like hypertension, cardiovascular disease, all of these types of things, they're input problems.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And high blood pressure is symptomatic, but we've now called it a diagnosis.

Like it's literally an insurance code.

This person is diagnosed hypertension.

Physicians are required to.

to, I mean, literally standard of care is you can be sued if a person comes in, has high blood pressure during your medical examination and you don't prescribe an antihypertensive.
