So we're running that study now with our Division I female athletes, and Alpha Lac will be one of ours to see if it's actually doing it or will it end like our other studies where there's no difference in things. But right now we're excited about it because there was evidence from two other studies, and we're just doing it a bit more controlled in our approach to it.

So Alpha Lac is kind of the new player there.

That's a really good point. We have to— You have to know how you react to things. The other thing is you could potentially be taking a large amount of fluid right before bed. If that makes you wake up and urinate too much, then it's probably also something you would want to have a different form or maybe try to have your protein intake at different times.

Right.

Right.

Yeah. And so, yeah, the sleep part of this is going to be sort of the next big story. And we're currently in negotiations to try to run another study because there's two things we're still missing. I want to know if there's a difference between the quality of the food you're taking or not. So could you have a mixed approach? macronutrient profile that's still relatively low in calories?

And how does that compare to something that's like ultra processed? And so that's one we're trying to run next is to look at specifically what is going on with the quality of the of the nutrient profile. And the other one is there is there a calorie threshold?

That's where I think we need to go because 544 in the first study seemed to not be good. And we're going to try to do like a 0, 400, 800. And then the idea would be to, if we can pull it off, would be to mask it and probably put it into something like a milkshake.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I think that we're going to have something to meal size and digestibility. However, we don't know the answer for sure. But just like some of the other studies I described, we sometimes think we know what's going on. And then you have to just do the study to show it. So I think we're going to find something to the calorie threshold theory.
