And actually, as people get older, that does become an issue for a lot of people is maintaining healthy muscle mass. MK-677, before it was taken off the compound list by the FDA, it's another one that was included. Oh, another acronym taken out by the FDA. There you go.

But you can take it orally, which, again, removes the stigma or burden of having to do a shot, and you will increase your appetite. And that actually is a very useful agent metabolically for people as they get older. And I know this, my kind of approach with this, and both personally and professionally, I try everything I can.

And I remember MK-677 I took at bedtime and it was an hour later, I was in a dead sleep and I woke up and I had to go eat. It sounds like puberty. It was. I was like, what is going on? Because I didn't totally understand. I was like, what? Oh, I took that cap. Oh my gosh, I should never have taken it right before bed. And I had to go up and eat and destroyed my sleep that night.

Testamarillin, I don't see any appetite stimulation from that. Hexarellin, we haven't talked about that. I don't really see it. It's also about hexamerole. Yeah, hexarellin. Hexarellin. Yeah, sure. Hexarellin, I think of as more, again, if we talk about the flavor of these peptides, how I kind of look at it in my head, is more of the energy endurance growth hormone releasing peptides.

I like it for people to use it in the morning. They get a nice burst of energy. They feel it's a clean energy. It's not a caffeinated energy or jittery or anything like that. And it's good for more endurance type, you know, athletics are working out. So people in that, you know, field of competition or whatever, I think Hexerone is a great choice.
