And in general, you know, keeping just good overall healthy habits, maintaining your weight at a healthy normal BMI or body mass index, exercising regularly, those things typically allow for a good, long healthy life. And we have actually found lower rates of prostate cancer in gentleman that tend to be more healthy as opposed to the gentlemen that have more chronic disease or tend to be obese.
