And people then have a disuse event.

So he'll put a cast or whatever on them.

And it cuts disuse atrophy like in half.

And he's trying to figure out what's going on, but it appears to be sensitizing muscle to amino acids.

So it's almost like what exercise is doing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Which is, of course, when you're having a disuse event, you're not exercising.

But anyways, it's something interesting I kind of wanted to throw out there and get on your radar because it's kind of in your world.

I think that generally speaking, healthy, so we're looking at the effects of omega-3.

They weren't high.

They didn't have high levels of omega-3.

So the idea is you take someone that's already eating fish.

They're supplementing with omega-3.

They're exercising, whatever.

So you put them in a disuse event where they're not moving a limb for four weeks or whatever.

Yeah.
