[00:00:00]There's a lot to say about GLP-1s. More and more data is coming out showing benefits [music] to the heart, the brain, beyond just weight loss.

[00:00:06]Longevity medicines will be much bigger than GLP-1s, but they're they're they're great now. I think if you're not losing weight, or you don't want to lose weight, talk to your doctor about microdosing. This all has to be doctor supervised, of course. You can't just go out and do it yourself easily, and I don't recommend that. There is one downside that I need to point out besides what's what's known about risks.

[00:00:26]That is that there's an increasing number of people waking up blind because of it. It's still rare. It's about 20 to 30,000 people in the US a year, which is still horrible, and that's one of the conditions that ER100 therapy will be tested to see if we can reverse blindness caused by drugs or it's called NAION.

[00:00:45]>> Yeah. It can happen without the drugs, of course. We don't actually know what causes it. It might be a congenital even.
