Okay, great. So I want to focus a little bit more on one of those amino acids because I know you've done some work. Tangentially, I'm transitioning here. I'm bridging a gap a little bit here, and that is glycine. So you don't need to give me the structural details here, but... We know why leucine matters. Why does glycine matter? What does it do?

And then we'll get into some of your supplementation work here.

Betaine, also known as trimethylglycine. Trimethylglycine. Or also known as betaine, beteen, betaine. I've seen people mispronounce this. There's a thousand different ways. Spelled? B-E-A-T. B-E-T-A-I-N-E. Yeah. There you go.

And this is probably, by the way, 10 years? Oh, more than that. OK. Yeah. Because I know it's been on the – in our field published for – it's fairly recent, I guess is what I'm talking about. In our field, 10. Yeah. Yeah, ish.

So if I take this right before my heat exposure, potentially nothing's going to happen.

Okay, so you got participants sitting in there. Yeah, they're just sitting in a chair in the heat. At 40 degrees.

So you can't tell us the results of that. You can tell us that it was pretty cool, though.

Okay. I won't ask you about the results. That's faux pas, right? You can't tell us that until it comes out. But I can ask you some things about dosages and things like that. Before we do that, you were telling me earlier about a little bit of the protocol for the firefighter overheating. So that was not sit easy at 40 degrees. No, yeah. What was that?

Yeah. Easy, I believe that. You get that hot, two, three pounds, you're going to be gone. So you— The results will be what the results will be. But what you were looking at, in case this hasn't been clear yet, is is that supplement helping them manage the heat better?

So how much—what's the dosage?

Yeah, okay.
