Well, it certainly indicates there's something physiologically happening. There's something happening. It's still going on in there, right? You still enhanced it. If you were to simply ingest carbohydrate right now, Your carbohydrate burning goes up, right? Exactly.

This is the whole premise behind why many folks got it wrong in saying, well, these higher fat diets or eating more fat helps you burn more fat. Anything does. If you eat more protein right now, you burn more protein right now, right? You need more carbohydrate. But the fact that it lasted overnight indicates that the next morning the sugar water wasn't still around, but the starch was.

Yeah, so by default then you would have probably lowered fat oxidation.

One of the things that I appreciate so much about not only the conversation we're having but your research line in general, is you're not only a scientist, but as I mentioned at the beginning, you've run these races. You're an educator. You have courses on this. In fact, I think I mentioned at the beginning that Florida State Educator of the Year, I know, is on your resume as an award.

You're putting these things into practice. You have the literal textbook in the field. You wrote the textbook in exercise physiology. And it's so clear that when you go after one of these studies, you don't just stop. When you're on here, when you're having these conversations, you're not just saying, okay, this is our answer. Because you know if you change one variable, maybe it changes.

And why I'm bringing this up now is you just reminded me that as you said, well, maybe we had the wrong dose. Maybe it was the wrong time. Maybe it was the wrong combination. Maybe it was the wrong person. that's a really hard skill and you rarely hear scientists talk like that because they want to have a capture of an area and they want to have clear answers.

The world wants a clear answer, but in, because you're such a practitioner, you know, that's not really how it works. So I really appreciate that about your perspective, the way that you teach and the way you run your lab, because you're doing 10, 15 years of, Of the same kind of study with multiple barriers changed out to understand the real answer there.

This is not going to influence your funding. This is not going to get you promoted or bring more money. It's really honestly, I'm jumping into your brain a little bit here, but you're generally trying to answer the question and you know that there's real life, there's multiple aspects involved. There's just trade-offs. There's not simple answers.

So another compliment coming your way for your approach.

Yeah, man, there's love for being in the basement. I get it. Like some of my fonder memories. I had a lot of years there. Yeah, but having dealt with that for most of my career and now having the exact opposite at Parker. I get it, man. Having nice facilities and being able to do stuff, it changes everything. Yeah.

So the Yukon, the superstarch didn't do much in, what, four studies you did in that area? Three, yeah. Three different studies. I have personally used resistance starches. Mostly, candidly, I've pretty much used Vitargo for the most part, which is a slightly different – But similar concept here with a lot of success in totally different applications and totally different scenarios than you.
