Yeah.
Precision Extra.
I got that later.
I don't even think that might've been out yet, but I got that soon after because the cardio check actually did like your HDL and like triglycerides and things.
We also had like a lab assay, like an Elias assay.
So yeah, we're comparing it to it.
Yeah.
And then we got the Precision Extra by Abbott.
And then I remember I bought something like $10,000 of strips.
I found, I bought them in bulk.
That price point has come down, but now we have the Keto Mojo.
Actually aligns more with our assays and it does the glucose ketone index that we can talk about.
So I started doing that.
And when I started it within, I guess, five years after starting the QJ diet, I probably rapidly lost 10 to 15 pounds.
And then my exercise and my lifts tanked too.
Lost strength on bench press, not so much deadlift and squat.
But I saw that, but I didn't really care that much at the time.
But I also learned
the lesson that protein was really important.
I was thinking ketones would be basically save muscle and they have an anti-catabolic effect that we can talk about.
