A lot of that we just don't have much knowledge about because we haven't been looking at pre-disease very much in our medical system. We don't really study healthy people and how they go from healthy to pre-disease to disease because that's not the way that our healthcare system works. We wait until disease and symptoms emerges and then we react. And that's a problem.

So I think we're going to see a shift here. and starting to understand. But this is more based on what we just know from the mechanisms, the fructose and the seed oils.

Yeah. Well, I think the alcohol example is really interesting and is an important one to mention, especially both in relation to your last question and this one. Alcohol is really interesting because straight alcohol, like spirits, no mixers that have sugar, actually often cause people to see a decrease in their blood sugar on their continuous glucose.

You mean, you mean me like tequila, not like wine, wine, wine actually fits in there as well. So wine, tequila, other sort of like hard alcohol, that's not mixed with anything. People often see that it blunts their glucose response. And this is a well-known phenomenon.

Um, the way that alcohol acts on the liver is that it actually stops us from doing what's called gluconeogenesis, which is the process where, or it, it, it, inhibits that process where, and that's where we make glucose in the liver from other substrates. So it's one of the pathways that our body uses to make sure our glucose never gets too low.

But when you block that, it can make glucose just look artificially a little bit lower because that's one of the streams of glucose going into the body. Food is another one, but you're turning it off. And so that's an interesting thing where it will not spike your glucose, but, and I

But in excess, it should be avoided because over time, two or more drinks a day is associated epidemiologically with worse metabolic outcomes. Interestingly, if you look at the risk of alcohol and metabolic disease, it's actually a J-shaped curve, meaning that if you drink no alcohol –
