The Dr. Hyman Show
Friendship Is Medicine: The Surprising Science Behind Connection | Simon Sinek

Exactly. I was like, you're fine. You know? What did Larry David say? It's the good cancer. And I think we have very few taxonomies. We have very few words for friends. You know? And so I've started using... Best friend, friend, friend. Yeah, that's pretty much it. And even then, best friend is sometimes a little overused. So I've started really trying to add more language.

When somebody says, hey, aren't you friends with them? I go, I'm friendly with them. Or somebody says, aren't you close with them? I'm like, no, they're an acquaintance. Or they're a work friend. And so I've actually started to use the language for my own clarity and for other people's clarity that everybody that I know is not my friend. I know them. Sometimes I like them.

Or I'll say, it's a new friendship. Or we're friendly. And I've become really good about... sort of categorizing people, because some I want to invest in, and some I'm okay with them being at that level, but I want both myself and everyone around me to make no mistake, not everybody I know is my friend that I'm gonna like. I can't have an infinite number.

Don't worry about if you miss the supplement and maybe just hang with friends, I bet. I mean, the data will prove it out. Like we have to wait a bunch of years because the longevity obsessives, the only way we'll know if it works or not is when they die. Yeah. And if they will be happy and healthy in old age. Yeah. Because nobody wants to live a long time and be decrepit.
