So I'm super stoked to be here with, Brian Lenzkes, a physician based out of San Diego. We met. I thought it was in San Diego. Probably like 7 or 8 years ago. Now, by the time flies, doesn't it? And, it's been quite the journey for both of us, really. And he's, he's and, you know, working really hard in terms of metabolic health, which I think people have started to really acknowledge as one of the really, really important sort of, foundational things that we need to do for health and longevity. It's it's crazy how people, haven't, really, taken note, especially in the medical field. And that's sort of what disappointed me anyway, for sure. About my medical training and how a lot of this had to sort of come out, sort of they had to learn this on our own and off, in a way, from the medical conferences that you'd expect to be teaching doctors about how important this is. So, Brian has been, doing great things. And I just want to, you know, take his brain and go over what he's been doing. So why don't we start there with, sort of your background and, your journey from, you know, when we met in San Diego.
