Yeah.

Well, what are the known downsides besides cost? Yeah, nothing.

It won't help. Sure. But for a pretty reasonable, I don't know what, I don't know, probably $40 a month, like maybe at the most. Yeah. Something like that. Relative to the pain you're experiencing, if it even has a 10 or 15% reduction in pain. You remember what the magnitude of effect was on the pain? Was it something like that?

I would imagine it's not this insane, life-changing, my arthritis is gone my entire life, but it's probably more of like a – I went from a 7 out of 10 to 5 out of 10.

Okay. So we can assume very low downside. Okay. likely plausible mild benefit, if that meets the criteria for you to take action, great. If it doesn't, that's fine too. All I'm assuming you want to do is just make sure people know what is possibly happening and then it's up for them to decide if that meets their action criteria.

Last two questions on that. One, why do you think the ones that exercise the most are the only ones or the ones that saw the most benefit?

So you need to repeat that study and specifically give it to them in that 45 to 90 minutes pre-workout window, which is where most of these work.

Yeah.

Yeah.

How did I miss the math there? That's science, right?

Yeah. But you mentioned it's free living. That's going to have the most ecological validity, the most external validity, right? What that means is that's the most realistic to a real life scenario where someone just, they're taking a scoop of it. They're not doing it the best way. They're not having a perfectly designed training protocol. And you still see, in my opinion, as a...

I will just say fairly well-trained scientist at this point in my career. That's actually really powerful because you didn't do it at the right time. You didn't control for those things and you still saw a statistically significant, albeit mild, benefit. I think most people listening would say, I will take a mild reduction in my daily pain.
