And i don't think most people do, know? They're just sort of rock and low grade metabolic cindrum for years and years and years, until it finally manifests into something scary, and they end up in office looking for a specialist. And you've got to give em this news that, at the end of the day, they've got to get their metabolism under check. And they probably say, like, what the hell does i have to do? With my heart.

La, it's like they'd come in and their syco my fingers and toes are tingling. And i was told that i hadand my a on c was, you know, five point nine or something, which, having, you know, even been told that, it's like, a, we've got years of damage to undo. But it's like, had you known tiss five, ten years ago, that your agency was creeping up and creeping up and creeping up, then you wouldn't have this nerve damage, and you wouldn't have this inflammation, and you wouldn't have the indothelial dis function, which now you're having, not only high blood sugar, but high blood pressure, and potentially some, you know, nerve damage and cognitive dis function because of everything that you've allowed into your blood stream. M over,

yeh ye. It's a slow creep, a slow, insidious creep. And i think it's affecting, well, i've never had a patient who was middle aged who had normal labs.

They really don't happen em i mean, just walking off the street, you know, it's like there's always something cause, you know, they might say, tay, well, you know, myt my grandfather, died of a hard attack when he was only forty five years old. So they know that t some genetic predisposition for it, and they can be, you know, lean and have it otherwise, you know, pretty clean life style. But if there's some insulting factor em and, you know, i'll actually bring it back to the whole cove discussion, i had a patient the most pristine life style. I mean, he, like, this guy's diet was, i was like, he'd got to be kidding mei it was my first appointment with him, so i'm doing this intake, and his diet excellent. Doesn't drink, doesn't even drink coffee. M just, you know, water. Had like a burky filter, even am. But got the coved vaccion and presented the next day for a hard attack. Oh, and so it's like, you don't know what's going on with your cardy vascular system unless you get tested. Because oftentimes, more often than not, the first symptom of carty vascular disease is a hard attack or sudden death. So do yourself a little bit of, you know, a little bit of justice and say, ok, should i, i should just at least know where i stand. Because even if it's not, you know, this whole, you know, genetic cascade that came to you. And now you're trying to, ok, well, this happen to my fathern my grandfather. So into eat a inn organic diet. I'm going to do x y and s iman, exercise, aminan, not smoke. So you can do all these things, but sometimes you just don't know. Like if you have lipo protein, little a, at really high amount, you have to know, because the only treatment for that is to really mitigate other risk factors. So it's just younow. Knowledgeis power, and we have to have that understanding of the base line of where we're at.
