I said, let's work on glutathione molecule.
I said, well, I work on large protein molecules and we have this technology that we've been working on.
I said that I want a specific glutathione.
So while he was not even working for me, we started working together, right?
And it took us some years and it took a lot of candlelight nights and we burned everything off.
We even burned one of our lyophilizers.
Oh my God, I was just, I didn't have any money and I burned a $40,000 lyophilizer one time in my lab and I was so mad at myself.
I said, how am I going to pay for this thing anymore?
And it was just, but you know, like everything else, right?
And when it comes to 2007, we had a molecule ready in my hands with a glutathione because guess what?
No doctor, nobody was believing that this is going to be able to be created, right?
So my pharmacist's brain thought, hey, let me get something just unique enough so it's stable enough.
Once it's stable enough, I can play with it to make it better for me.
So I have the first stable molecule at room temperature, water-based system,
Glutathione ready in my lab.
Oh, okay.
Absolutely.
So liposome technology is, you know what they do is they take this molecule, which is very hard to absorb or very easy to get destroyed, and they put layers of this soy or the lecithin type layers on top of it.
So layer after layers after layers.
So when it goes to the stomach,
