So whole egg versus egg white.
And it turns out potentially we don't, we didn't have mechanisms behind this, but potentially some of the stuff that's in the egg yolk itself was contributing to additional muscle growth, micronutrient wise, vitamin D, right?
Of course.
And like any number of things are in there.
Absolutely.
Right.
Whether those actually were the case, I don't get, we didn't have mechanism on those.
It was just sort of like, why do you think this is happening?
Even when you match it for calories seems to be the case.
Nonetheless, to back out your question, yeah, it's a whole food answer, right?
If we can get there with whole food, and I will say this, we have many of our professional athletes that take almost no supplements.
And they definitely don't supplement protein powder.
Some of them don't like it.
It doesn't sit well with their GI.
You don't have to have protein powder ever.
I can't think of a compelling reason why, outside of practical, you know, easier flavor, taste, whatever.
So protein very specifically...
Whole food.
Muscle growth.
Whole food.
