From Depression to Purpose: Brandon's Journey of Hope, Healing & Becoming a Warrior · Life Rescue with Lisa Dwoskin

• Lisa Dwoskin: Hey guys, it's Lisa. We're back with Life Rescue Podcast. Thank you all for joining. I have an amazing guest today. And before I introduce him and we get into our topic, I want to start with a deep breath work that we all do every time I start my podcast, including you, Brandon. So we're all gonna just relax our arms on top of our thighs. We're all going to close our eyes. And just take a long deep breath in, breathing in beautiful positive energy. Hold your breath a couple of seconds and then exhale as fully as you can, like seven to eight seconds. Exhale. We're going to do that two more times. Breathe in beautiful positive energy. Hold your breath. Exhale out any negative energy. Let it go. Release it. One more time we're going to breathe in peace, love and light. Exhale out any fear, stress, or worry. Okay, and open your eyes. And everyone feels great right now because that scientifically proven to relax your nervous system. And I also I don't know about you, Brandon, and I'm gonna introduce you right now in a moment, but when I breathe in beautiful positive energy and exhale out negative. And I'm about to start my podcast. I asked God to be a voice to help others with healing. Because this show is all about healing. It's not about, hey, look at us how great we are. No, it's about what we can do for others, and in turn, helps ourselves. And let me tell you, this man right here has been through quite an ordeal. I read his story. I found him through di divine intervention, which I believe we all are connected when we are raising at a certain energetic vibe. And he's gonna tell you not only about his story, but his amazing juice and his amazing time that he gives to others and everything he's got going on. So, Brandon, welcome to the show. Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy schedule. So, how are you doing today? Good? ⁓ I'm doing fabulous. And ⁓ thank you so much for allowing me to come onto your show. So I'm honored and look forward to it. ⁓ thank you. So before we get into your hat and all about your Jews, your amazing product, let's talk about your backstory. What got you into what you do today? Share a little bit about your personal life because I find it quite fascinating how immense suffering leads us to the destination we're meant to be. ⁓ so how can I st start this? So seven years ago I lost my best friend, my mentor, ⁓ the man that I looked up to be. Now he wasn't a perfect man by any means, but what I learned from him was something that ⁓ is really not ever taught. And ⁓ we need to be doing more of and ⁓ so that was seven years ago. So it my day started off like any other day. ⁓ woke up, went to work, and I was working for Wells Fargo at the time. And ⁓ two thirty came round over and picked up my boys and two thirty five I got a phone call from my stepmom saying that ⁓ my dad had a gun and was going to kill himself. ⁓ she called you before it happened? She called me and ⁓ she told me like everything that was going on. I told her to hang up the phone with me and call the police. so I I rushed my my two boys home and ⁓ I then, you know, called my wife at the time and and said, Hey, ⁓ I just dropped the kids off. Can you please go home? I I need to go home. ⁓ I need to r ⁓ go to my dad's. I need to run over there real quick. ⁓ I don't have any time to explain, but I just need you to go ⁓ home 'cause the kids are there. And they're like eight and ten. ⁓ so I try to get over as fast as I could. Takes me about ⁓ you know, forty five minutes to get there. And so I ⁓ just ho I just went as fast as I could. So I got there but I was two minutes too late. Started C P R, ⁓ paramedics showed up, we started C PR on him, we were on ⁓ C P R for forty five minutes and It's okay. We're we're back. Okay, perfect. ⁓ so yeah, so f nothing happened. We couldn't get him back in forty five minutes, so we called it. ⁓ so that was the day that I I lost my dad. ⁓ and then started kinda going over his journal, started reading what he was writing ever since he was sixteen. It showed me that he was very, very depressed for a very, very long time. And ⁓ between two thousand and nineteen and twenty three I lost five more friends and colleagues ⁓ to suicide. ⁓ over the span of my life. All the suicide. All the suicide. ⁓ god. You know, and and from my my whole entire life, from 42, I had you know, 14 friends and family members take their lives. So I started to kind of look at what was the common denominator, like what was the common consistency. And ⁓ our health is imperative, right? Our health is so important and it's what we're consuming both with food and beverage. And I started kind of doing a like a de like deeper dive and saying, like, are we drinking these chemicals, these chemicals that we drink, are they causing us to have some sort of a depression? Is it causing us to have a chemical imbalance in our minds that leads us to be more depressed, to be more suicidal? And there is a link with some of the chemicals that we are drinking. Red forty is like one of them. ⁓ has also been linked to diabetes types four, which is going to be dementia, is what we're starting to find through the research and the ⁓ development of ⁓ the the lack of nutrition that we're we're ⁓ not providing for our bodies and our minds. So that's when I decided that I was gonna change the world. I was gonna ⁓ basically just take this industry by storm and completely change it. And I'm just gonna flip it upside down. Because I got tired of all of these companies saying like, ⁓ we're healthy and ⁓ they're just not. Like they just have chemicals in their in their drinks. They have nothing but just harmful things that they claim to be clean, but they're really not. ⁓ but I decided I mean for for four years, I'll tell you that. So f you know, for four years I was I got depressed. Well that's what I was gonna ask. How did you cope with four losing fourteen people? in your life to suicide over a two-year period? Is that correct? Well, 14 was over my whole life, five was over two years. But geez, even over that's just like mind-boggling to me. So before we jump into the juice, I want to dive deeper a little. How did you cope with all of that? You know, so right after my dad took his life, I actually lost my job and th I was a breadwinner, bought a brand new truck, I bought me a brand new dirt bike, bought my my boy a brand new dirt bike. ⁓ you know, and and I was feeling on top of the world because I was making really good money, I was being able to provide things for my family like you know, a lot of people aren't being are able to provide for their family. And I lost it. I lost it all overnight. ⁓ and then I lost more friends to suicide. So I did get into a slump. I got into a depression. I got into a midlife crisis. Mm-hmm. And ⁓ i I can understand and I can see why people would go into that dark place, right? Because at that time, when you're in that dark place, you think that taking your life is going to bring light. And that that in what you're dealing with in that darkness is a little bit of light. And so therefore that's why I think people do take ⁓ that you know, advantage of that and and they think that's what they're doing is is going to the light when it's actually not. Because if we really think about it, right, when we have our friends and our families who take their lives, it's not only just affecting them, but it's going to affect us for the rest of our lives as we live here because we have to live with it. We have to cope with it. And so that's something that we don't understand as as we're like in that dark moment where we want to like take our own life We're not thinking about the other people. We're not thinking about how is this going to affect my loved ones, my friends, my family. ⁓ because it will affect ⁓ for years. It's been seven years since my dad took his life, and just last night I was with my brother up in Washington and we were around the fire and we were just talking about how we miss him very much, and there's not a day that goes by that we don't think about him. And it affected my kids, it affected his kids, ⁓ in ways that is very, very traumatizing and is just absolutely Scary. ⁓ so I decided to do something different. I said, you know what? I know that we have two choices. We can sit here and say, Poor me, this happened to me, and my life sucks, and I don't have good luck. I don't have that. You can sit here and you can do all of those negative things. Or you can do the vice versa and you can say, you what, I'm gonna retrain and rewire my brain. And I'm gonna sit here and say, What can I do to make a difference? Why did this happen for me? Because if this happened for me, that means that I have a life experience because this life experience it wasn't just for me, it's gonna be for other people around me. Because there's other people out there who have been affected by suicide, who have been affected by depression, PTSD. And that's why we need to speak up and that's why I decided, you know what? I'm gonna do something else and I'm gonna do something different. Because if we don't speak up and if we don't come together as a people, if we don't come together to say, Hey, you know what? We all go into this dark place from time to time, and it's okay to talk about it. It's okay to let people know like I am depressed, I'm sad, then ⁓ I think that we would be a little bit more understanding, we would be able to cope with each other, we would be able to listen better, and then we can show empathy and sympathy, and then we can actually start to change the world. So that's what I did. I I decided that I was gonna, you know, change the world. And I'm gonna interject something. I love what you said. It happened not To you, it happened for you. So if people could understand that the negative, darkest moments in our lives are most always the moments that change us, that bring us towards the light. Because the we all go through struggles, trials, tribulations, suffering, but do we allow that suffering to take us down, or do we turn that suffering into a life-changing cause like you did, but I just want to ask you, what was the moment that changed you from going down in the depression to turning your life around? Was it an aha moment? Where was it little moments adding up? How long of a time did it take you? And what really was it your kids? What what drove you to say, Okay, I need to get out of this depression and move forward? And make my life better because that's what we need to teach people. So there comes a breaking point, okay? ⁓ when you get into that slump, when you get into that darkness, there's a breaking point where you've got a choice. ⁓ it took me four years to get out of that slump to get out of that depression. And my choice came to me when I was sitting there and I just had it wasn't like really an aha moment, it was more kinda like, What am I doing? moment. ⁓ I started it th to think like I have a choice. Either I'm gonna stay down this path, I'm gonna get super depressed, and then I'm gonna end up probably doing something that I'm gonna totally regret and it's going to affect my kids even worse, or what can I do to show my kids like even though that negative things happen and bad things happen, it's okay and they're meant to happen. And what can I do to show that? What can I do to express that? What can I do to be an example to them? To let them know like when these things happen to them, it is actually divine intervention that it has to happen. And then what you do is you take it and then you turn it into a positive and you learn from it. And then when you learn from it, you can actually now start helping others around you learn from theirs. And then they can understand and say, Okay, so here's a person who took something that was so negative, something that really, you know, was life changing. And he decided that he was going to do something better and different and I want to be like that. So it's then coming to an understanding of I wanna be an example to those who can see and say, I would rather be a light a light to others instead of being a darkness. And then that's what we're trying to do and that's what I'm trying to do for sure. I love that. And for those of you watching us and listening. You might feel at this moment that there is no light, there is no hope, there is no faith, and you might be sinking deeper and deeper, but reach out to us. We're gonna put our info on here. This is why we do this. Both Brandon and myself have TV shows we're starting to help people, and we're gonna get into that in a moment. To help people out of the darkness, to help them heal. I have a phone number, 754-24. 222 4413. For anyone who wants to call me, I'm there to help free of charge. Leave a message, a comment, a text, a voice memo. We really do this from our hearts because we care and we want to make a difference in the world. We both are extremely busy in our lives, and there's a lot of people in our circle that are just as busy, but we're all available. To help if you need help, reach out. Don't isolate yourself if you're in crisis. We will make time, trust me. He will, I will, and most people in our circle will. So please reach out. And let's continue on. So you started a TV show helping these men, which I watch the trailer, I love it, the episode as well. Of of and especially men, you know. I want to talk about men for a moment because I've had a couple men on this show. More men reached out to me to talk about their depression and their addictions and their suicidal thoughts than women, which was quite shocking to me. But the fact that you have this beautiful group of warrior spirits that are men that can be vulnerable and open up their hearts is the most beautiful thing. I love it because men need it. Just women do too, but I think men really need it more than women in this day and age because you guys have so much pressure on yourselves. But go ahead, you talk about that. Well, no, ⁓ you're absolutely right. We all need it, right? We all need to be heard, we all need to have that ⁓ that safe place, right? Where we can then express our feelings and be heard. ⁓ but here's the thing is kind of what we have done as a s a society, as a culture, you know, kids and women, it's like an unconditional love, right, for them. And what we want to do as men and what a we want to do as a society is we want to protect them. And by protecting them we want to make sure that we are nerd like nurturing them, ⁓ letting them know like we're we're here for you. We're gonna hug you. We wanna hear your problems. We wanna make sure that, you know, as as men, we are going to be the the protector, right? And so that is kind of like what we have become and that's totally fine and I love it, right? Because that's how it should be. You women and children should be protected. You should be like just you you guys ⁓ have some special things about you that we don't even have as men. And we need to protect that and we need to cherish that. And ⁓ but I think what we have lost is, you know what, men need that too. And so all of a sudden we start getting this perception that men are supposed to be strong. Men aren't supposed to have feelings. Men men are supposed to be resilient through anything and everything. And we are demanded of so many different things at so many different times that we get spread way too thin. We are basically wanting by everybody to be there a hundred percent. Work, family, kids, ⁓ our our extra ⁓ extracurricular activities, you know, like everything that we have, it has a high demand on us men, and we need to be a hundred percent everywhere and it's just not possible. And then when we start to go through some of these depressions or these negative feelings or just the the mental PTSD that we go through, because PTST means so many different things, that we don't know who to turn to. We don't know who to talk to because we don't want to be looked at as weak. We don't want to be looked at as someone who can't control their feelings and their emotions because if we can't, how can I help you with yours? And I think that's a huge fallacy. That's a huge misconception because guys, you know, the the truth is is we all have our battles within. Every single one of us has battles within. And we need to be our brother's keeper. And I think that what we need to do is completely change that and say it's it's okay. And we can listen to men as just as much as men need to listen to women and kids or vice versa, you know. So I think that that is something that I'm trying to change as well. And it's I'm trying to show that through our show that we started on YouTube. And we took these two veterans out on this first epic journey and I can tell you that one of the vets told us at the end, he goes, I have completely changed. You guys have given me purpose. And you have helped me become a better man. And I was fifty fifty. I don't I didn't know if I was gonna come. And I did if I did come, I knew that I was gonna try to make it the best that I could. But I can tell you right now that the other fifty percent of myself, if I didn't come, I was gonna take my life and you saved my life. Wow. And so that right there is why we do what we do. And it's not like we have to sit down and have a counseling session by any means. But what it is, it's actually reaching out to these these men, the Brotherhood, letting them know you're not alone. Letting them know you can defeat anything that you are going through. You don't you can don't have to do it alone. You can do it with us. We're gonna be here with you. But if you have to go through it alone, you are strong enough and you can make it happen. So that is kind of what we're trying to do with this channel. That is what we're trying to do all together with Squatch Deuce and the whole like meaning behind it. I just want to add something to that segment you just said. So you talked to my partner, Brian. I don't think you ever saw him. He's six foot five, very built, good looking guy, a warrior, grew up in Oregon, hunting, shooting, you know, the typical warrior spirit man. But then we got together, he moved to Florida, switched jobs, went through back surgery, all these ups and downs. Hit depression a bit. So long story short, the point is he took a warrior group class here in South Florida, which is like a half a day. I forgot the guy's name. I'll I'll get it and give it to you another time. But it was so incredible that it changed Brian. And he had already been a man who's very vulnerable and open and emotional, with me, luckily. But in this group, He was with men who were crying and breaking down and sharing. And he was like, Gosh, for a man to have this space to be able to be like that with other men was so like uplifting and relieving for him. But then we go back and forth because he opens up a lot to me. We're best friends and he gets vulnerable and emotional. But then on another note, he'll be like, Well, I don't want you to see so much that side of me, and I don't want lean so much on you. So it took quite some time of finding balance of how to interact with his family, his his spouse, his children. But it was so beautiful. And to see a man like Brian and a man like you is a manly man, you know, and and they're hunters and warriors, but they could be emotionally vulnerable. I believe it makes you not only grow within yourself as a man, but it helps your family get stronger because now everyone can be true, authentic, and honest with each other. So I love what you're doing for men because when the man is stronger and could really be his true authentic self, the whole family is stronger, don't you think? Well ⁓ yeah, absolutely. Yeah, a hundred percent, right? So keep on doing this for the men out there. Now for men watching, how can they reach out to become part of it or where do they see your show? Yeah, so ⁓ just ⁓ you can find us on YouTube, it's just Squatch Juice, or you can reach out to us on ⁓ you know, just Google Squatch Juice for the first thing that pops up. ⁓ my contact information is in there, my email's in there. ⁓ reach out. Like we have another one that we're planning on right now. Like I gotta go over and talk to Jimmy Kimmel and ⁓ his partner Oliver ⁓ this coming up weekend. ⁓ because we are trying to part we're we're trying to do another one over there at his fishing lodge in ⁓ eastern Idaho. ⁓ so we're gonna be flying another veteran over from Kansas City and then there's a gentleman that actually is going through a really tough time. His wife reached out to us and his best friend reached out to us and said, Hey, ⁓ you know, his his kid was just diagnosed with cancer And he's going through a really bad depression and ⁓ they're like, Can you please do something to help kind of get him back on track 'cause we need him ⁓ to be strong and and to be ⁓ a positive light in this dark time. So we are gonna try to do something ⁓ with that. So yeah, you can reach out to me anytime. My email, my phone number's on my website. ⁓ and yeah, we'd love to see what we can do to help. And you know, we do vet, ⁓ You know, our participants, we have to make sure that they're okay with being on camera, they have to be okay to be vulnerable, they have to be okay with sharing their feelings and what they're going through. ⁓ because ultimately we want them to be an example too through the show and letting people know like, hey, it's okay. And ⁓ so if they're not, you know, and they just want to go for a free trip, unfortunately just that just won't work. But we have other things too that we can do to to really help them if that's the case. So But yeah, ⁓ Okay, but let's jump in and talk about the Jews because You know, Brandon, I'm a fitness professional. I teach wellness, mind, body, spirit connection. I'm all about how you feed your body. Feed your mind, feed your spirit, and that is going to determine your life. Are you going to live healthier and happier? Or are you going to keep feeding your body with junk and feeling like junk? So I want to hear all about the juice. So tell me about it. How did that get started and how can people Buy your juice and get it delivered to their home. ⁓ so squatch juice is ⁓ so the reason why I call it squatch juice is it's it's after Sasquatch, right? Yeah, I love Sasquatch. ⁓ and so a lot of people are like, Why would you choose a Sasquatch? Well, there's a couple of different reasons. Number one is because everyone loves Sasquatch. Tell me one person who doesn't, right? They they when you when you think of Sasquatch, you get a smile on your face. So right off the bat, you're getting those endorphins, those happy endorphins coming into your body. And then number two is I believe that he's the epitome of what's you know mental health really is, because not a lot of people believe in him. So you see those t shirts that say, even though you don't believe in me, I believe in myself. And that's something that we have to be living by every single day. Yeah. Because you have to believe in yourself. You know, he he perseveres ⁓ day in and day out. We've seen those videos where he's just running up a mountainside where it was effortless, right? And that's how we need to really train and condition our mind where When the time gets tough and the battles get hard and the mountains get steep, we can just run up it effortlessly. ⁓ and so like that to me is why I chose the the squatch. I love that. I haven't heard that from you yet. And that is so amazingly beautiful because that's all I teach about. Believe in yourself, love yourself, you yourself. If if you're not okay, nothing else is okay. I love that. Okay, continue. No, you're fine. Real quick, I do want to touch on that though, because you know how you say believe in yourself, love yourself. ⁓ I witnessed this this weekend and you you hear people say, Don't talk bad about yourself in front of people. Don't even as a joke, right? 'Cause here's the thing, and this is I just witnessed this this weekend. If you talk bad about yourself or you make fun of yourself, your body and your mind actually are are not in sync and it doesn't understand what you're doing. And all of a sudden, even that perception that you're putting out there, people are gonna start thinking, I can make fun of this person. So if you want respect, if you want people to ⁓ respect you and love you and treat you with value, you need to do the same thing to yourself. Because if you don't, ⁓ and you treat yourself negatively, people are gonna treat you negatively. And if you treat yourself with value, And you hold yourself on a on a higher pedestal, if you will. Not being like chauvinistic or you don't have to be condescending or anything like that. But just be proud of who you are, be confident in who you are, and then you will let people know this is who I am and this is the type of re response I need back from you. And then that's when that respect and that love and that appreciation and value is gonna come. So always remember you've got to make sure that you don't talk bad about yourself, ⁓ because that is setting the precedence for other people to treat you the way that You see yourself. And that's so true. And it's also energy because when you raise your vibe, you attract your tribe. So when you're raising it a high vibration of love, self love, self worth, self respect, that whole energetic vibe is gonna bring all of those people right back to you. So that's amazing. I love that. So the juice is ⁓ really, really healthy. ⁓ we farm all of our ingredients outside the United States for a purpose and we do manufacture it here in the United States, so it is USA made. But what we have found is that a lot of the chemicals and a lot of the ingredients that are sourced here are are tampered or they are actually ⁓ how can I say it? They they actually are not as healthy because they have chemicals in them or they have some sort of a pesticide in them or a preservative that is actually very not healthy for you. So I will then go out ⁓ all over the world sourcing these ingredients, especially our our flavor, because that wasn't tampered with and it's a hundred like ninety-seven percent or higher impurity. I have it third party tested with three the four different third party testers. We have our in-house testing, we have our tolling, we have our micros, we have everything like that that we go through to make sure it is actually going to be the cleanest drink on the market, and it is now. ⁓ we've got that re those results back and we have been ⁓ compared and tested against our competitors, and we have been the cleanest. And because of that, we are seeing humongous ⁓ health benefits from it, like just tremendous health benefits from it. We're getting people calling back and saying, I used to suffer from migraines, and now because I take your hydration, I have no migraines at all. And I suffered with migraines for the last seven years every day. Went to seven different doctors, had no idea what was going on, started taking your hydration. I haven't had a migraine in a year. ⁓ we have people who say I don't have cramps anymore. we were just up in the mountains yesterday, ⁓ for this weekend. Had a hunter come in and said I was drinking a different product, I'm not gonna name names, but it's really, really well known. ⁓ and he goes, I I do it because it has a high sodium count, and I did it the night before, and I did it the morning before I went on my hike, and I cramped really, really, really bad. I got back and I took one of your sticks. Within an hour, I was relaxed. And he goes, your product works tremendously. And I don't have as much sodium in it. It's about the purity and it's about the retention. So you got to think about what our body is going to retain. Because if you're going to be drinking something that has 2,000 milligrams of this or a thousand milligrams of that, I've got five thousand milligrams total high electrolytes. You know what? That sounds so good on paper, but your body can only handle twelve hundred and fifty milligrams of electrolytes a day. That's it. Like at max. And if you drink more than that, you literally are just flushing it out of your system. And you're not retaining anything. You're drinking something that's going right through your body with no natural nutrient like properties whatsoever. You know, so that's what we focus on. I tell them always, they're like, Why am I so dehydrated? I'm drinking water, water. No, you need electrolytes. And I love the way you just explained it. Because some people drink excess amounts of electrolytes, not enough. But it's so important to put the electrolytes in your water. I do every single day. I love and I can't wait to try your juice. I'm waiting for it. Yeah, we're gonna send it off to you. I just got back. We just got more in ⁓ the hydration we just got and ⁓ I gotta take a lot more to some deliveries and we have a lot more orders to fulfill, but I will send you guys a pouch for sure. ⁓ you're really gonna like it, I promise. Yeah. But that's something that we have a misconception on. ⁓ a lot of people say, I just drink water. That's great. If you're drinking water, that's fine, but you're actually flushing out your electrolytes. Okay, so here's something to think about, guys. We are a conductor of electricity. Our bodies will can will actually produce and conduct six volts of electricity every day when while we're alive. So where does our electricity come from? It comes from our potassium and our magnesium and then it's it's literally firing new ⁓ neurons and and ⁓ neutrons into our system that is now allowing us to be able to be moving right so our tendons our ligaments our muscles everything like that stays very well lubricated stays active it stays energized so we can then move now if you deplete those electrolytes you're going to then dehydrate all of what I just said your ligaments your tendons your joints your muscles So a lot of people say, ⁓ man, my hands hurt, my joints hurt. How much are you drinking in your electrolytes? ⁓ I don't drink ⁓ at all. Start drinking your electrolytes and see what happens. You'll be astounded just to see the difference because you're gonna be like, Holy cow, I feel so much better. Our bodies need that to be able to continue to conduct that electricity. Now, if you stay hydrated, here's a couple of cool things that I've I have learned through ⁓ all of this. I I was not a nutritionist, I was a financial planner, I was in banking, I was I was a I was a money guy. That's what I did. But I have now just in like completely submerged myself in this industry and I am trying to learn as much as I can so I can be the best of the best. And that goes for anything. If you're trying to be the best of the best, submerge yourself and do everything you can to become the best of the best. And you can do it. It's all up here. ⁓ so what we have found is a couple of things like ⁓ dementia, right? That is actually the onset of what was called diabetes four now. And it's a lack of your nutrition of your electrolytes, basically is what it is. Now, as we get older, we deplete our electrolytes. ⁓ we can't produce them as fast, just like our estrogen and our testosterone. And so we have supplements to help us keep those in balance. ⁓ what we're finding as we get older, over the age of sixty-five, our bodies will now all of a sudden start to just almost s completely stop. producing your electrolytes and so you have to be doing some sort of a supplement. Men aren't as affected as women are, which is kind of crazy. ⁓ because we are completely different. We're wired differently. And what we're finding is, you know, men, it does help with the offsets of dementia, so they can not get it as soon, or it will help them not get it very fast. ⁓ but it's also helping them stay a lot lim more limber, it's helping them to be a lot more agile. They're not so stiff. ⁓ I have clients now that are taking squatch juice who are 73, 74, who have restless leg syndrome and it's helped calm it down and they don't have to take any medication. ⁓ What we're finding in women is like ⁓ women will start to have more UTI infections because they're just not being able to flush out what they need to, right? They're not staying hydrated enough. Their joints start to get a little bit more inflamed. ⁓ they start to get cold, right? So women as they're getting they get older, they're getting g getting cold. And why is that? Is because their blood flow is not as what it once ⁓ once was. So your blood flow is starting to slow down and it's not being able to have the lubricity to provide all the nutrients and natural ⁓ sustenance that your body needs to keep you warm. So it's all staying right here next to your chest to your heart and so it's not going out to your extremities and so you're getting cold. ⁓ so we're doing a a the studies that we're do we're we're doing, like we're gonna have a ton more studies come out here in the next six to twelve months with ⁓ I can't say who right now, but it's a very prestigious college and it's gonna be around squatch juice and what it can actually do to your body and how it helps you with your mind and your body. And we're gonna have five different study groups. ⁓ and it's gonna be pretty amazing. So we just got done talking to one of the ⁓ the doctors and professors from Gazaga over the weekend and we're working on that right now. So That's amazing.
