egg white powder versus the whole egg.

But I'd like to know your thoughts in general.

Yeah, I was kind of...

I was a little shocked, to be honest, because protein was equated, calories were equated, and they were training.

And it's like the people eating the whole eggs had increases.

I guess it was slight in muscle mass.

Was it strength?

Strength also, right?

about that well it's a little interesting because you always think about well leucine is the major signal for you know protein synthesis muscle protein synthesis and you would think well if it's the leucine and the egg white powder it should be why why is there why is there a difference right i mean well again this is what like it's actually funny because when the reviewers came back it was like i knew it was going to happen everybody knew and it was that right you're just like

Totally.

Who knows, right?

Yeah.

But I personally, you know, I don't like protein powders, to be honest.

And it's a processed food.

I mean, you look at protein powders and it's like never just protein.

And so...

I have every reason to be motivated to eat my turkey burger, my homemade turkey burger, you know, versus the protein powder.

But I get it.

I get, like, I have these, like, pre-made, homemade turkey burgers.

You know, they're food prepped, and they're there ready to just microwave.
