So the answer, I think, is it's usually better to achieve these things in food.
And for some people, life is...
straightforward enough that they can always do that.
My patients live in the real world and despite their luxuries, even most of them have a hard time day in and day out hitting their targets.
And I know that if my patients have to rely on supplementation here and there, probably most people do.
One of the things I always tell somebody is, you know, make sure anybody who's selling you anything has a really clear line of conflict disclosures around.
You've mentioned a couple of things that I'm involved in, and my patients are very clear on where my conflicts are.
And we're not actually selling anything to anybody.
So I always think it's important that people understand that, that you have to be aware of a doctor you go to see who turns around and sells you an unlimited supply of supplements.
Let's be honest, our species is becoming lazier and lazier.
If I sat here and gave you an hour-long dissertation on how much I could improve your brain health by exercising,
And then you heard some guy talk for 30 seconds on a TikTok video about how you could take this pill.
Most people just want the pill.
They don't have the time, energy, or desire to kick the tires on it and realize that stuff Atiyah was talking about is going to make like a 50% improvement in my cognition.
And what this other guy's talking about is going to do nothing, but he sounds better and it's easier.
