So 5% increase would increase that to like 13.6 or so.

In their life, yep.

Yeah, and so the reasons for that are likely environmental because your genes don't change over that time period.

So the risk factors, if you think about breast cancer, it's alcohol, it's obesity, it's age when you have children or don't have children because it's a really hormonally driven cancer.

Same thing if you think about colon cancer.

That's a really scary one where we're seeing more and more cases in younger people.

Some of the drivers of that, eating meat.

So processed meats increase your risk of colon cancer.

So, you know, these very sort of normal behaviors.

There's probably other environmental things, honestly, that we're not yet measuring or able to measure.

Just given the rate of acceleration, when I talk to my colleagues who are oncologists, you know, things like plastics or other things that we don't yet know, it's clearly something in the environment that is driving these increased cancer risks.

Yes.

So that would be one unit.

So that would be fewer than 14 of that.

So you could see like, you know, if you had double that, it would be a decent pour of wine.

You could not have more than seven of those in a week to be in low risk.

But even drinking that amount, your risk of breast cancer would go up a little bit.

Mm-hmm.

There's really sort of no safe amount of alcohol when it comes to breast cancer.

So that low-risk category, so these big cancer studies categorize people as sort of low-risk or light drinkers, moderate or heavy.
