Key Takeaways
- Ginger’s role in managing hyperlipidemia is best understood through a systems-science lens rather than a reductionist one. Its bioactive compounds influence multiple interconnected pathways involved in lipid synthesis, cholesterol transport, energy regulation, and inflammation, making it a biologically integrated intervention rather than a single-target solution.
- Hyperlipidemia is a systemic metabolic condition, not merely a cholesterol imbalance. Genetic factors, diet, lifestyle, oxidative stress, inflammation, and environmental influences interact to drive disease progression, which explains why one-size-fits-all pharmaceutical approaches often fail to deliver lasting benefits.
- Ginger supports lipid regulation through coordinated molecular mechanisms, including activation of AMPK to suppress lipogenic gene expression and activation of LXRα and PPARγ to enhance cholesterol efflux. These mechanisms work together to reduce lipid accumulation and improve metabolic balance.
- Effective use of ginger requires personalization. Differences between fresh and dried ginger, dosage sensitivity, and individual physiological states mean that ginger can be beneficial or counterproductive depending on the person and context, reinforcing the principle of the right medicine for the right person at the right time.
- A systems-based, open-science approach—integrating computational modeling, indigenous medical knowledge, and personalized health frameworks—offers a sustainable path forward for addressing chronic metabolic diseases, empowering individuals to take informed control of their health rather than relying on centralized institutions.
A Systems Perspective on Health, Survival, and Hyperlipidemia
The discussion of ginger and hyperlipidemia cannot be separated from a larger and more urgent context: the systemic crisis facing human health globally. Any meaningful exploration of food as medicine must begin by confronting the reality that people’s lifespans are declining while the cost of living and surviving continues to rise at an unprecedented rate. When this trend is examined objectively, without emotional bias, it becomes clear that the systems governing health, economics, and governance are not designed to support human well-being. Instead, they operate in ways that actively undermine it.
This decline is not the result of a single policy failure or isolated mistake. It is the cumulative outcome of decades of systemic dysfunction spanning healthcare, education, food production, governance, and economic structures. Across political ideologies and institutional boundaries, the result has remained the same: ordinary people are increasingly disempowered, disconnected from real knowledge, and deprived of the tools needed to protect their health and autonomy.
The approach presented here does not promise rescue through institutions, political saviors, or top-down reforms. No one is coming to save you. The only viable path forward is self-empowerment grounded in rigorous education, systems thinking, and an honest understanding of how the body functions as an interconnected whole. This philosophy underpins the work across Systems Health®, CytoSolve®, and the Truth Freedom Health® movement. Whether the subject is ginger, neem, cardiovascular disease, or governance itself, the motivation remains constant: equipping individuals with the knowledge and tools required to save themselves.
Modern health crises are driven by layered failures. Immune systems have been systematically weakened through medical practices that ignore holistic biology. Access to clean, nourishing food has become increasingly difficult due to industrialized agriculture and opaque supply chains. Educational systems have abandoned systems science in favor of reductionist thinking, leaving people unable to understand complexity or solve real-world problems. Economic systems discourage saving and reward consumption, while income inequality widens relentlessly. Governance structures have become detached from the lived realities of the people they claim to serve.
In response to this, a systems-based solution is required—one that integrates science, health, education, and community. Truth Freedom Health® exists precisely for this purpose. It is not merely a platform, but a framework for thinking, fighting, and healing simultaneously. It teaches individuals how to strengthen their immune systems, eat clean food on a budget, think critically, develop leadership, and become resourceful rather than dependent. It rejects the false promise that health can be outsourced to institutions or that single interventions can fix systemic problems.
Food as medicine sits at the heart of this approach. However, food must be understood correctly—not as isolated nutrients or trends, but as complex systems of bioactive compounds interacting with equally complex human biology. This is where systems science becomes indispensable. Without it, discussions about nutrition remain superficial and misleading. With it, food becomes a powerful, precise, and individualized tool for restoring balance and health.
The exploration of ginger’s role in hyperlipidemia is one example of how this systems approach can be applied rigorously and responsibly. Before examining molecular mechanisms or clinical implications, it is essential to understand why such an approach is necessary in the first place. Hyperlipidemia is not merely a lipid disorder; it is a systemic manifestation of deeper metabolic, inflammatory, and lifestyle-driven imbalances. Addressing it requires far more than suppressing a single biochemical pathway.
Ginger as a Medicinal Herb Across Civilizations
Ginger has earned its reputation as a “mighty herb” through thousands of years of consistent use across diverse cultures and medical traditions. Derived from the rhizome of the ginger plant, it is one of the most widely consumed dietary condiments in the world. Yet its value extends far beyond flavor. For nearly five millennia, ginger has occupied a central role in traditional healing systems, particularly in ancient Chinese and Indian medicine.
In Ayurveda and Siddha traditions, ginger is revered as Vishwabhesaj, meaning the universal medicine. This designation reflects its broad therapeutic scope and its perceived ability to restore balance across the body’s fundamental regulatory systems. Rather than targeting a single symptom or disease, ginger has traditionally been used to harmonize the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—thereby supporting overall physiological equilibrium.
The medicinal use of ginger is not confined to South Asia. In Middle Eastern cultures, ginger-infused teas have long been valued for their warming, digestive, and restorative properties. Across African traditions, ginger has been employed for its antimalarial effects, immune-enhancing capabilities, and anti-nausea benefits. Western herbal medicine has embraced ginger for conditions ranging from gastroesophageal reflux and arthritis to muscular discomfort and inflammation. This global convergence is not accidental; it reflects Ginger’s remarkable biochemical diversity and physiological versatility.
Ginger is commonly consumed in two primary forms: fresh and dried. Fresh ginger is characterized by a sharp, peppery, slightly sweet flavor and a strong, pungent aroma. Dried ginger, by contrast, exhibits a more concentrated and intense profile. This transformation is not merely sensory. During the drying process, gingerol—the principal bioactive compound in fresh ginger—is converted into shogaol. This chemical shift increases pungency and alters biological activity, resulting in differences in potency, therapeutic application, and physiological effects.
Understanding the distinction between fresh and dried ginger is essential for therapeutic precision. Fresh ginger tends to exert milder effects and is often associated with reducing Pitta, while dried ginger, due to its increased potency, may elevate Pitta in certain individuals. These nuances underscore the importance of personalization in nutritional and medicinal interventions. Even a universally celebrated herb like ginger is not universally appropriate in all forms for all people at all times.
The enduring presence of ginger in traditional medicine systems is not a matter of folklore or superstition. It reflects empirical observation accumulated over generations—an observation that modern science is now beginning to validate through biochemical and systems-level analysis. However, to fully appreciate ginger’s role in conditions such as hyperlipidemia, it must be examined not in isolation but within the broader context of metabolic regulation and cardiovascular health.
Understanding Hyperlipidemia in a Modern Context
Hyperlipidemia refers to abnormally elevated levels of lipids—primarily cholesterol and triglycerides—circulating in the bloodstream. It is a major contributor to cardiovascular disease and a growing global public health concern, affecting nearly forty percent of adults worldwide. Despite its prevalence, hyperlipidemia is often treated narrowly, as though it were a simple numerical problem to be corrected by medication alone.
The reality is far more complex. Hyperlipidemia arises from an interplay of genetic predisposition, dietary patterns, lifestyle factors, environmental exposures, and systemic metabolic dysfunction. High intake of saturated fats and dietary cholesterol, obesity, sedentary behavior, and excessive consumption of animal-based fats all contribute significantly. The condition is also commonly associated with diabetes, hypothyroidism, chronic renal failure, nephrotic syndrome, advancing age, and prolonged psychological stress.
From a conventional medical standpoint, hyperlipidemia is typically managed through a combination of pharmacological and lifestyle interventions. Statins are the most commonly prescribed drugs, recommended especially for individuals at moderate to high risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. These include medications such as lovastatin, pravastatin, simvastatin, atorvastatin, and rosuvastatin. Lifestyle recommendations usually involve calorie restriction, increased physical activity, and generalized dietary modifications.
While these approaches can lower lipid levels, they do not address the underlying systemic drivers of the condition. Pharmacological strategies often target a single enzymatic pathway, leaving broader inflammatory, oxidative, and metabolic processes unexamined. Moreover, such approaches assume uniformity among patients, disregarding individual variability in biology, genetics, and systemic balance.
Hyperlipidemia is not merely a disorder of excess lipids; it is a manifestation of deeper disruptions in lipid synthesis, transport, oxidation, and clearance. These processes are tightly interwoven with inflammation, immune signaling, oxidative stress, and energy metabolism. Treating one component without understanding the system as a whole is unlikely to yield sustainable or optimal outcomes.
This is precisely where a systems-based approach becomes indispensable. Rather than asking how to suppress cholesterol levels, the more meaningful question is why lipid dysregulation occurs in the first place and how multiple biological pathways interact to sustain it. Addressing hyperlipidemia effectively requires mapping these interactions, understanding their feedback loops, and identifying interventions that restore balance rather than impose blunt control.
Ginger enters this conversation not as a miracle cure, but as a biologically rich, systemically active substance whose compounds interact with key metabolic and inflammatory pathways relevant to lipid regulation. To evaluate its true potential, it must be studied within a comprehensive systems architecture—one that respects complexity, individuality, and the interconnected nature of human physiology.
A Systems-Science Framework for Innovation in Health
To address complex chronic conditions such as hyperlipidemia, a fundamentally different scientific approach is required—one that moves beyond reductionism and embraces the reality that biological systems operate through dense networks of interacting pathways. This is the foundation upon which the CytoSolve® platform was developed. Built over decades of systems engineering and computational biology research, CytoSolve® provides a rigorous framework for understanding, modeling, and intervening in biological complexity using validated scientific principles.
The CytoSolve® innovation process begins with a comprehensive mapping of molecular pathways. This is not a cursory literature review but a deep, systematic examination of peer-reviewed scientific studies spanning multiple decades. Each pathway is reconstructed based on experimentally validated interactions, ensuring that the resulting architecture accurately reflects biological reality rather than theoretical assumptions. This process preserves pathway provenance, allowing each component to be traced back to its original scientific source.
Journey to systems
So that’s the VASHIVA Truth Freedom Health movement. And I’ll come back to that. But the foundation of that is really a Systems Approach. So when we look at something like Astragalus, we want to take a Systems Approach to looking at it. The scientific approach of reductionism–where you just look at one little piece of something–is a way that, in many ways, you can fool yourself or those in power can take advantage of you in anything–be it science, be it understanding politics, be it having an argument. When you take an interconnected Systems approach, you get a much better view closer to the truth. So as people are coming in, let me just, I have a new video that I put together that really encourages people to, you know, sort of share my personal Journey to Systems, and you can look at it how your own life has gone. So let me just share this with everyone.
Once these molecular architectures are established, the next step is publication. Transparency and scientific rigor are essential, and findings are shared with the broader research community through peer-reviewed journals. This step ensures accountability, reproducibility, and continuous refinement as new knowledge emerges.
The biological interactions within these architectures are then translated into mathematical rate equations grounded in physical chemistry. These equations describe how molecules interact over time, enabling dynamic simulation rather than static representation. By modeling kinetics rather than isolated endpoints, CytoSolve® captures the temporal behavior of biological systems—an essential feature when dealing with chronic metabolic conditions.
With validated mathematical models in place, combination screening becomes possible. This phase evaluates how multiple compounds interact within the system simultaneously, revealing synergistic, antagonistic, or neutral effects that cannot be detected when compounds are studied in isolation. This approach mirrors biological reality, where no molecule acts alone, and outcomes are shaped by collective behavior across pathways.
Discoveries emerging from this process are protected through patents, ensuring that innovations are preserved and can be responsibly developed. From there, the platform supports licensing, manufacturing, and real-world applications, translating computational insights into tangible solutions that benefit individuals without reliance on pharmaceutical monopolies.
This end-to-end pipeline has already been successfully implemented across multiple health domains. Products developed through this framework have progressed through systems architecture, publication, modeling, combination screening, discovery, and validation, demonstrating that this approach is not theoretical but operational. Importantly, this work has been conducted independently, without venture capital or government funding, underscoring the feasibility of innovation outside traditional institutional constraints.
From Systems Architecture to Cardiovascular Health
The application of CytoSolve® to cardiovascular health represents a natural extension of this systems-science framework. Hyperlipidemia is not treated as an isolated abnormality but as a core component of a broader cardiovascular systems architecture. At the center of this architecture lies the relationship between lipogenesis and atherosclerosis—a relationship that reveals how metabolic dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammation converge to drive disease progression.
In hyperlipidemic conditions, excessive lipid synthesis combines with impaired clearance mechanisms, leading to elevated circulating lipids. These lipids undergo oxidative modification, generating reactive oxygen species and oxidized lipid products that trigger immune and inflammatory responses. Key receptors, including CD36, LOX1, toll-like receptors, and TREM2, mediate lipid uptake and inflammatory signaling, promoting the formation of foam cells.
As foam cells accumulate, chronic inflammation becomes self-sustaining. This inflammatory environment contributes not only to atherosclerotic plaque formation but also to systemic conditions such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Cholesterol crystals and oxidized lipids further exacerbate tissue damage, reinforcing a pathological feedback loop that links lipid dysregulation to widespread metabolic dysfunction.
Understanding this architecture requires acknowledging the multiple factors that shape cardiovascular outcomes. Genetic predisposition interacts with dietary habits, environmental exposures, sedentary behavior, psychological stress, smoking, alcohol consumption, and the misuse of antibiotics and steroids. These influences do not operate independently; they intersect and amplify one another within the cardiovascular system.
By mapping these interactions comprehensively, a systems approach reveals why single-target pharmaceutical interventions often fail to produce durable benefits. Suppressing one pathway while ignoring others may temporarily alter laboratory values, but it does not restore systemic balance. In contrast, a holistic framework enables the identification of leverage points where interventions can produce coordinated improvements across multiple pathways.
The cardiovascular initiative within CytoSolve® follows this logic rigorously. After establishing the systems architecture, findings are prepared for publication, followed by model construction and integration. The combination screening phase then evaluates natural compounds with known cardioprotective potential, not to claim immediate solutions, but to uncover how these compounds might work together within the full biological context.
Ginger as a Biologically Complex Natural Compound
Within this broader cardiovascular framework, ginger emerges as one of fifteen natural ingredients selected for detailed analysis during the combination screening phase. Its inclusion is supported by an extensive scientific record, with thousands of research publications and hundreds of clinical trials spanning more than two centuries. This depth of investigation reflects both ginger’s longstanding medicinal use and its relevance to modern health challenges.
Ginger’s biochemical richness is central to its versatility. While over one hundred chemical compounds have been identified within ginger, a subset of eighteen key molecules has been prioritized for cardiovascular and metabolic analysis due to their biological relevance. These compounds encompass a diverse array of minerals, vitamins, and specialized phytochemicals that collectively influence multiple physiological systems.
Among its mineral content, ginger provides essential elements such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, manganese, iron, zinc, and copper. These minerals support enzymatic activity, cellular signaling, and metabolic regulation. Ginger also contains vital vitamins, including vitamin C and B-complex vitamins, which contribute to antioxidant defense and energy metabolism.
The most distinctive components of ginger are its bioactive phytochemicals. Compounds such as gingerol, shogaol, zingerone, paradol, gingerenone A, and dehydro-gingerdione represent a family of structurally related molecules with potent biological activity. Of particular importance are the gingerol-related compounds, including 6-gingerol, 8-gingerol, 10-gingerol, and 6-shogaol, which have been extensively studied for their effects on inflammation, metabolism, and cardiovascular function.
This chemical diversity underlies ginger’s wide-ranging biological effects. It exhibits anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, neuroprotective, gastroprotective, antimicrobial, and metabolic regulatory activities. Ginger supports weight management, modulates blood sugar levels, protects gastrointestinal integrity, and contributes to cardiovascular health. These effects do not arise from a single mechanism but from coordinated interactions across multiple pathways.
Such complexity makes ginger an ideal candidate for systems-based analysis. Rather than attributing its benefits to isolated compounds or simplistic mechanisms, a systems approach recognizes ginger as a multi-component intervention capable of influencing interconnected biological networks. This perspective is essential for understanding how ginger may contribute meaningfully to the management of hyperlipidemia when used appropriately and in context.
Molecular Mechanisms by Which Ginger Supports Lipid Regulation
The value of ginger in addressing hyperlipidemia becomes clear when its bioactive compounds are examined within the context of lipid metabolism and cholesterol homeostasis. Rather than acting through a single pathway, ginger influences multiple regulatory nodes that collectively shape lipid synthesis, transport, and clearance. This multi-target activity aligns precisely with a systems-based understanding of metabolic disease.
One of the most significant mechanisms involves the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase, commonly referred to as AMPK. AMPK functions as a master energy sensor within cells, regulating the balance between anabolic and catabolic processes. The bioactive compound 6-gingerol has been shown to activate AMPK, initiating a cascade of downstream effects that directly influence lipid metabolism.
When AMPK is activated, it suppresses the nuclear translocation of sterol regulatory element-binding proteins, specifically SREBP-1 and SREBP-2. These transcription factors are central regulators of fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis. By inhibiting their activity, ginger reduces the expression of genes responsible for lipogenesis and cholesterol production. The result is a measurable decline in triglyceride and cholesterol synthesis within hepatic tissue.
This suppression of lipid synthesis leads to reduced lipid accumulation in the liver, improving hepatic steatosis and supporting healthier metabolic function. Importantly, this effect is not merely symptomatic. By acting upstream at the level of gene regulation, ginger addresses one of the foundational drivers of hyperlipidemia rather than simply altering circulating lipid levels.
A complementary mechanism involves the hypocholesterolemic effects of 10-gingerol. This compound has been shown to upregulate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, or PPARγ, a nuclear receptor that plays a critical role in lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Activation of PPARγ enhances lipid handling and contributes to improved metabolic balance.
In parallel, 10-gingerol activates liver X receptor alpha, a key regulator of cholesterol homeostasis. LXRα controls the expression of ATP-binding cassette transporters, specifically ABCG5 and ABCG8. These transporters facilitate the efflux of cholesterol from cells to extracellular acceptors such as high-density lipoprotein particles and apolipoproteins. By increasing cholesterol export, ginger supports the removal of excess cholesterol from tissues, contributing to improved lipid balance and reduced cardiovascular risk.
These mechanisms illustrate why ginger cannot be accurately described as a simple cholesterol-lowering agent. Its effects emerge from coordinated actions across energy sensing, gene regulation, lipid synthesis, and cholesterol transport. This integrated activity underscores the necessity of evaluating ginger within a systems architecture rather than through isolated biochemical assays.
Dosage, Safety, and the Importance of Personalization
While ginger’s biological potential is substantial, its effective use depends on appropriate dosing and individual suitability. Scientific studies have explored a range of dosages for different health outcomes, demonstrating that ginger’s effects are dose-dependent and context-specific. Daily intakes ranging from a few hundred milligrams to several grams have been associated with benefits such as lipid regulation, pain relief, blood sugar control, migraine reduction, and nausea management.
At the same time, ginger is not without limitations. At higher doses, some individuals may experience side effects such as heartburn, gastrointestinal discomfort, diarrhea, or oral irritation. These reactions do not negate ginger’s value but reinforce the principle that no intervention is universally appropriate. The right compound, administered at the wrong dose or to the wrong individual, can produce undesirable effects.
This reality highlights a critical failure in mainstream nutritional discourse: the assumption that natural substances are inherently safe and universally beneficial. In truth, biological systems vary widely, and interventions must be tailored accordingly. Recognizing this variability is not a weakness of natural medicine but a strength when properly addressed.
To meet this need for personalization, the Your Body, Your System framework integrates engineering systems science with Eastern systems of medicine. This approach assesses an individual’s physiological tendencies in terms of transport, conversion, and storage functions, providing insight into systemic imbalances. By mapping these characteristics, individuals can determine whether a particular intervention aligns with their current state.
Within this framework, ginger is understood to influence the doshas in distinct ways. Ginger tends to reduce Vata and Kapha, supporting stability and metabolic efficiency. Fresh ginger is generally associated with lowering Pitta, while dried ginger, due to its increased potency, may elevate Pitta in certain individuals. These distinctions matter when determining whether ginger is appropriate and in what form.
Personalization transforms ginger from a generic recommendation into a precise tool. Rather than asking whether ginger works, the more meaningful question becomes whether ginger is right for a particular individual at a particular time. This perspective restores agency to individuals, enabling informed decision-making grounded in self-awareness and systems thinking.
Open Science, Indigenous Knowledge, and a Call to Participate
The exploration of ginger and hyperlipidemia is not conducted in isolation from broader ethical and scientific commitments. The Open Science Institute™ represents a deliberate effort to reshape how research is conducted, shared, and applied. Central to this mission is the elimination of animal testing, the validation of indigenous medical knowledge, and the rejection of fabricated or misleading science.
Modern pharmaceutical research often dismisses traditional medicines, not because they lack efficacy, but because they do not fit profit-driven models. Indigenous systems of medicine are frequently marginalized, despite centuries of empirical validation. This exclusion is not scientifically justified; it is structurally enforced. Supporting indigenous medicine is therefore not only a scientific imperative but also a moral one.
The Open Science Institute™ operates outside the closed loops of big government, big pharma, big academia, and big publishing. These institutions often reinforce one another through financial and political incentives that reward conformity rather than truth. By contrast, an open, participatory model allows individuals to engage directly with research, contribute to discovery, and benefit from shared knowledge.
This initiative extends to cardiovascular health through the ongoing CardioSolve™ effort, which currently operates in the combination screening phase. Participants are invited to engage at multiple levels, whether through learning, contribution, collaboration, or investment. Monthly symposiums provide opportunities for education and dialogue, reinforcing the principle that science should be accessible rather than gatekept.
Ultimately, this work is driven by a singular goal: empowerment. The aim is not to create dependence on products, institutions, or authorities, but to equip individuals with the knowledge required to think critically, make informed decisions, and reclaim control over their health. Ginger serves as one example of how food, when understood through systems science, can become a precise and powerful tool rather than a vague recommendation.
A Systems Conclusion on Ginger, Hyperlipidemia, and Self-Empowerment
The exploration of ginger in the context of hyperlipidemia reveals far more than the properties of a single herb. It exposes the limitations of reductionist thinking and highlights the necessity of a systems-based approach to health, science, and personal responsibility. Hyperlipidemia is not a standalone condition to be managed through isolated interventions; it is a systemic imbalance rooted in metabolic dysfunction, inflammation, lifestyle factors, and environmental pressures. Addressing it effectively requires understanding how these components interact and how balance can be restored rather than forcibly suppressed.
Ginger exemplifies how nature offers biologically sophisticated solutions when examined through the proper lens. Its diverse array of bioactive compounds interacts with key regulatory pathways governing lipid synthesis, cholesterol transport, energy sensing, and inflammation. Through mechanisms involving AMPK activation, suppression of lipogenic gene expression, modulation of nuclear receptors, and enhancement of cholesterol efflux, ginger supports healthier lipid metabolism in a coordinated and physiologically meaningful way. These effects do not arise from a single molecule acting in isolation but from the integrated behavior of multiple compounds working within complex biological networks.
Equally important is the recognition that ginger is not universally appropriate for all individuals in all circumstances. Dosage, form, and individual physiological context matter. Systems-based personalization restores precision to natural medicine, ensuring that interventions are aligned with an individual’s current state rather than applied indiscriminately. This principle—right medicine, right person, right time—stands in direct contrast to one-size-fits-all approaches that dominate conventional health paradigms.
The broader framework supporting this work integrates systems science, open innovation, and community education. Platforms such as CytoSolve®, Systems Health®, and the Open Science Institute™ demonstrate that rigorous scientific discovery can occur outside entrenched institutional structures. By mapping molecular pathways, translating biology into mathematical models, conducting combination screenings, and validating discoveries transparently, this approach offers a viable alternative to pharmaceutical dependency and opaque research practices.
At its core, this effort is driven by a commitment to self-empowerment. Health cannot be outsourced, and survival cannot be delegated to institutions that do not share the lived realities of ordinary people. Education, critical thinking, and systems literacy are the true foundations of resilience. Whether the subject is ginger, cardiovascular health, or broader societal systems, the message remains consistent: individuals must be equipped to understand and act for themselves.
This discussion of ginger and hyperlipidemia is part of an ongoing series aimed at demonstrating how food, when understood as medicine within a systems framework, can play a transformative role in health. It is also an invitation to learn, to participate, and to engage with a movement that prioritizes truth, freedom, and health above all else. The tools exist. The knowledge is available. The responsibility, ultimately, rests with each individual to use them.
