But in any case, before I rant about that, what happened in humans?

So in the humans, we did a standard blood glucose tolerance test, which is horrible.

So you get people to starve overnight.

They come in, they drink this big sort of cup of vile glucose.

So we really pump up the glucose in their body.

And then we prick their fingers at regular intervals

and sample their blood and see how their blood glucose level changes.

And your blood glucose level will peak in about 40 to 60 minutes.

It's hard getting subjects for this one.

We also put a tube up their nose so we could detect how much oxygen they were consuming.

You're calling on friends.

I mean, I even dragged my son in as a subject for that one.

The result, when we gave people a burst of red light beforehand,

to stimulate their mitochondria was super clear.

It wasn't ambiguous.

The blood glucose levels went up, but they didn't peak anywhere near as seriously as they did without the red light.

Now,

I'm told that the level of your blood glucose is not necessarily a massive issue for concern.

What is an issue for concern is it spiking, how much it spikes.

And the reduction in the spike was of the order of, it was just over 20%, if I remember correctly.
