The way we go about modern medicine now is trying to prune the tree as the branches grow. The fact of the matter is they're just gonna keep growing back. And I think the mind shift we need is to look at the roots in the soil, which are these underlying pathologies, things you mentioned, like insulin resistance and inflammation, that are at the root of all chronic metabolic disease.

And when we make that mind shift, we can gain insight into, I think, how we can more potently address disease, and also why certain fundamental interventions might hit a lot of different diseases. Like, yeah, depression and schizophrenia in addition to obesity. And it's not because it's snake oil.

It's because they all have the same underlying dysfunctions that just manifest differently in different people with different susceptibilities.

I figured I hadn't, I might have like heard, I don't know where I heard it, but I'm like, I couldn't have created this. It's just so obvious.

A few things I want to respond to there. One, with respect to why doctors don't order these sort of tests. I mean, first rule of medicine is don't order a test if you're not going to do anything with it or you don't know what to do with it. So I think a lot of people don't know, you know, if somebody comes back with a high insulin resistance score, there's not a pill for that.

So how are you going to manage it in the current, you know, medical system? Whereas, you know, if you measure an LDL cholesterol, we very clearly have a pill that can target that biomarker and you can get an easy win on paper. I'm not saying that, you know, statins don't have their place, but in terms of like why someone would test for one thing and not another, it is the treating clinician.

What are they equipped to handle in terms of data? How do they know how to manage the results and what tools do they have to prescribe?
