Colon cancer or liver cancer or something like that.

Cancer cells like glutamine.

I was talking about T cells, but cancer cells can thrive with glutamine.

It's an energy source.

And people don't realize that.

And so I was thinking about the TBI thing that I'm totally going off a tangent here, but I'm wondering if the TBI thing, if there's an energy component to it.

In the gut too.

It's like it's being converted to energy.

Your gut cells are using alpha-ketoglutarate.

I mean, it's so interesting.

I think there's so much to be discovered with glutamine that I hope people are going to research that more.

You should, every day.

I give it to my son as well, and he's not getting sick nearly as much.

It's real.

So I was thinking it was placebo.

I was like, oh, it could be placebo because...

you know honestly if it was placebo i don't care if it works it works but my son doesn't know of course that i'm giving him glutamine what are you giving three grams i'm no i'm giving him full five almost five yeah yeah

And it's like, it's been a pretty night and day difference in terms of the effects on the immune system.

I mean, I'm saying immune system.

I don't know that it's actually, I'm just saying.
