Thank you, everyone. I know time is short, so I'm going to be zooming through some of this.
I don't want you to have to worry about notes. So I provided this entire lecture slides and all. You can download the whole thing if you if you so desire at World Health dot net slash CCF, CCE for Cancer Control Society. And I would like to thank very much Franklin Raines for their tireless effort. I mean, 40 years is an awful long time. And this is the saddest part of all that is, is that they've been at it for 40 years and we don't have a cure. And you have to wonder, with all the billions, the hundreds of billions of dollars that have been spent on cancer over this period of time, why is there no cure? I mean, where are the answers? Well, hopefully they're in the laboratory. Hopefully they're they're making their way out. One at a time. Way too slow for my liking, I'm sure, for your liking as well. But we do know one thing, that the answer to cancer is, in fact, prevention. And so staying healthy and avoiding risk factors for cancer and doing everything you can do to maintain yourself at a youthful, youthful biological age is one of the probably the most significant and important things that you can do with regard to the prevention of cancer. I remember that, you know, it's it's important to remember that the paradigm of aging has shifted dramatically over the last 40 years. And in 1972, when I first started working in medicine, it was very common to see people who look like this, who were just 65 years of age. Well, today, many people 65, most people 65 and older are looking more like that or looking more more like this, actually. And so it's common now. At 65, we no longer think of people as old. Back when I was a young man and in 72, anyone over 30 was considered to be old today. I like to think of people in their 50s as just getting out of their adolescence. Maybe that's a personal bias of mine. But it's you know, we're finding that it's harder and harder to find old people or traditionally old people in their 60s and even their 70s. And I think that that is a test that is a that is a testimony to the success of the anti aging medical movement or the nutritional medical movement or the preventive medicine movement, whatever you want to call it. It's really kind of all the same. It's all advanced preventive medicine, and that's what anti
