| 0:00.0 | The whole medical system was never built to keep you healthy. As doctors, we were told that once you |
| 0:05.5 | develop a chronic disease, it is a lifetime sentence. A lot of people are frustrated with that |
| 0:09.5 | system because it does not address the why of how we get chronic disease. So you look at the CDC's |
| 0:16.1 | top 10 causes of death. All of them can be reversed and prevented. Why does it every doctor learn this? |
| 0:23.0 | I did trauma surgery for 10 years, operating five to seven days a week sometimes. |
| 0:29.0 | What I want people to understand is that in the next few decades, people are going to have |
| 0:33.0 | much more control of their health on their own through a combination of wearable devices, more |

| 1:37.1 | practitioner, as an expert. So you could really be in a, in a position to bring precision |
| 1:43.9 | health and, you know, this notion of longevity to more folks. |
| 1:49.3 | Talk a little bit about that transition for you, from Western medicine to kind of, you know, |
| 1:54.9 | focusing on longevity. |
