Yeah.
12:13
Neuroplasticity means our brain really can regenerate, can reform, and it wants to because, as I said, it is about survival genetically.
12:22
I mean, that's what any human and any animal and any plant, okay, it tries to survive.
12:32
So if we actually put our brain in an environment that it can be neuroplastic, so we feed it properly, we support it properly, we allow it to actually want to survive, then it, in the main, responds very nicely.
12:48
Now, the problem is that the harming of the brain starts years and years and decades before we often see the first symptom.
12:57
So the earlier you start really caring for your brain, the more chances you're going to have to somehow halt that process.
13:04
But even we have seen people with early, early signs of cognitive decline that have been able to halt it or reverse it without a problem.

No. No.

13:56
Okay.
13:56
Two is activity, okay? Does it need to be exercise? No.
14:00
Actually, it doesn't need to be exercise, but you need to stay active.
14:03
We need to move.
14:05
Three is sleep.
14:07
I mean, without sleep, really not much happens, okay? Four is calm.
14:16
And it's, it's the one thing that a lot of people just somehow forget.

And sort of knowing that and getting some metrics as well which sort of help explain, like, sort of how well you're aging, that can make a big difference in terms of being like, "Oh, okay, I actually really need to take some action, take some, do some things." And I'm guessing you've, you've probably seen that, right?
14:16
Why is this still happening? Why are we still using so much plastic when we know that it contributes to climate change in, in a major way and is also impacting health?
14:24
It's a useful way of, of actually creating things because it is so moldable and it's cheap.
14:31
Do I think that we should start looking at different ways of manufacturing the same capabilities? Of course, we should.
14:38
The problem is that I'm always fearful that we actually go from one problem into another as we had with BPA, for example.
14:44
It's called bisphenol A and it's like a plasticizer, and a plasticizer is added to your plastics to make your plastic very bendable.
14:53
Your plastic bottle, for example, there will be BPA in that.
14:57
We know that there's been some health impacts on BPA so now you find a lot of articles, okay, that you can buy that it says, and they make a big thing of it, "It's BPA-free," which is great but the substance still remains that there's a bendable plastic.

Like how much of this plastic ends up in us?
