0:00.0 | Anybody paying attention over this last month particularly knows that business as usual is out |
0:05.7 | when it comes to the medical space and the public health space. |
0:08.3 | This is, we're looking at revolutionary changes in every direction and the media reporting |
0:13.5 | is going to obviously be pushing their buttons that they always push. |
0:17.9 | But I think what the really big picture is here is it's, we're looking at health through |
0:22.1 | a different lens now. |
0:23.3 | We're looking at it through, in public health as well, through the lens of the increasing |
0:27.9 | chronic disease epidemic in the United States. |
0:30.3 | And that changes the whole narrative, changes the whole picture, and it changes how people |
0:34.6 | are going to be reporting on things. |
0:36.0 | And I'm noticing it in the literature now, in the scientific literature, that you see studies |
0:40.4 | that look like this. |
0:41.9 | This is a study that looking at proteomics and genetics. |
0:46.0 | Proteomics is just like the study of proteins in people's bodies down to that granular space |
0:50.0 | there and integrating the environmental and genetic architectures of aging and mortality. |
0:54.8 | So they looked at both environmental exposures and genetics to see what plays a role in our aging |
1:00.0 | and our mortality. And it's interesting because a lot of times when you see reporting, they'll |
1:04.5 | say, well, you know, children just get autism because it's the parents' genetics. It's kind of |
1:10.1 | your fault because you have bad |
1:11.1 | genes. And that's just, this is just how it happens. But this study looks at a lot of different things. |
1:16.1 | And so they're looking at blood chemistry, the proteins in the body, biomarkers. And then they also |
1:22.8 | looked at the common disease risk factors that people were engaged in throughout their life and |
