You wouldn't know.

I don't think you'd feel like, if I gave you beta alanine, if I gave you caffeine, you'd be like, whoa, you know there?

But we could blind you to rhododendron almost surely, and you wouldn't know it.

Yeah, we will use it chronically.

Okay.

Yeah, but again, we're speculating here because we don't know where we have mechanism.

We understand at least roughly how a beta alanine or sodium bicarbonate are working or caffeine.

I don't actually know.

So I should back up.

I don't know the answer to your question.

We are not super worried about it that you have it right before your workout.

I guess it's plausible that we should, but we're not, yeah.

Yeah, I think that is a pretty good place where you would likely to see some benefit there.

That would be a good place to try.

Yeah.

Talk about what it's doing.

Sure.

There's actually a lot of research.

right andy jones uh has done so much stuff here um he's done a ton of work on it and there's a lot like you're talking about a solid decade and more in lots of populations lots of different stuff so it is really well studied it's funny you bring it up because it it gets no love like people don't talk about it that much despite it's not a small amount of research here if you want to especially stack up like rhodiola to be like you have a mountain to go on with beetroot juice and you have a pebble like on rhodiola

We like it.
