And we could get into how problematic that is or isn't. It's certainly at least somewhat problematic that the company is funding the research that will test their product. But more interesting to me was that this was sort of Beyond Meat 1.0. And Beyond Meat actually did better than the red meat.

And they actually, after that, took out the coconut oil, took out some other ingredients, added some more benign ingredients, and they've actually reformulated multiple times. And so by reformulating, even though the study we did show they had a benefit, I totally respect that. They are listening. They're looking at the health concerns. They're trying to be responsive.

And I think if the food industry as a whole did this and we could work more closely with them, that would be the way to improve the U.S. food supply as opposed to we have a new thing, it's NOVA, get rid of them all. That won't really work.

It's not a simple answer to that because it's not a yes-no question. It's a total continuum. So they could say, we'll give you this money if you'll do that. They could say, we'll give you this money to do anything you want, but tell us about it as you go. You could write up the results. I'll give you the most interesting personal experience that I had in this.

So everything was pretty benign all the way up until when we got the study done. And this had to do with cognitive impairment. And so I'm not going to even talk about the product. I'll just set this up because I think you'll find it interesting. So it turns out the people we recruited had pretty high cognitive ability. There's a survey you can take. And I think 50 was the top.

And everybody who signed up was a 45. And we were kind of looking to see if this supplement could increase cognitive ability. But we should have realized in the beginning that there wasn't much room to increase. They were 45 out of 50 to begin with. and it failed to show that the product increased cognitive ability.

So we shared it with the company, and they said, well, I can see you're saying there's a null finding here, but could you also say there was no deleterious effect? And I said, we weren't looking for a deleterious effect. We were looking for an improvement. They said, yeah, but isn't it also true that it didn't make it worse? I thought, That's actually true. It didn't make it worse.
