Right, but one thing they definitely have in common is a lot of hard landings,
21:47
right? Well, I don't think it's hard landings, man, because martial artists get punched in the face a lot, and they don't show a longevity benefit for that.
22:01
What's interesting is the volleyball players actually have worse longevity, and I think that...
22:09
There's lots to mine from this observation set and lots of ideas that could come from it.
22:18
But I think if you look across it, what stands out about the gymnasts and the pole vaulters is they have excellently functioning joints and biomechanics.
22:31
And I believe that there is definitely a basis for why that would protect against death.
22:41
I think it would be protective against both autoimmune conditions and cancer.

But I'm not even kidding when I say you're the one I actually learned that from.
46:26
Yeah
46:26
... would it be the apple cider? Um, I think those are very idiosyncratic.
46:31
And part of the reason I say that is we've had a couple people who have used our test that had very bad catastrophic energetic failures after SSRI withdrawal.
46:43
In one case, the guy was fully functional, but he developed all kinds of neuromuscular problems.
46:53
He developed, you know, urinary and electrolyte problems.
46:57
He lost 17 pounds of muscle mass during this period.
47:00
He couldn't travel.

72:17
Yeah
27:25
Oh,
27:25
well, Paul Saladino just likes a lot of plants.
27:27
So the set of green plants that are a really big problem is smaller than the set of green plants that Paul Saladino hates.
27:37
So I'll say that.
27:38
Every food has some problems.
27:41
And what you want to do is get more... good things than problems, right? So if you have a high good thing to problem ratio, you're good.
27:50
And that speaks to your point earlier about balance.

39:08
We were talking about pharmaceuticals.
39:11
Oh, yes.
39:12
Okay.
39:13
So in SSRI development, the reason that the SSRIs cause a lot of nausea and vomiting in the first couple of weeks is and they don't take effect until after that, is because you have these adjustments between one neuron and another, and what you would really want to do is activate one neuron, but not cause negative feedback on the other one, and you wanna do all these things, but you can't go into the brain with the drug and tell one neuron to take it up and tell the other neuron to ignore it, and so you wind up with these trade-offs and side effects as a result of that.
39:48
But on the other hand, if you take something like going to the...
39:51
And actually, it's a great tie into the altitude because there are no randomized controlled trials in people of this, but there are several animal experiments and the results are insane.
40:02
So...

So talk about the process right now, where you are, where you want to go, and what your vision for the product is.
42:29
Okay.
42:29
... who are...
42:30
You know, that's where it's coming from.
42:31
And I th-...
42:32
You know, it makes a lot of sense that cycling is...
42:35
You know, it's good for cardiorespiratory fitness.
42:37
There's a lot of data that having good cardiorespiratory fitness is a key factor for longevity.

What is the real problem with seed oils in a human diet?
