So Jeff did this study and he looked at these kids and he showed that the higher their C15 was correlated with lower liver fat. And this was a linear correlation. So the higher the C15, the lower the fat in the liver. So he's like, okay, well, that's interesting.

So then that resulted in him doing a randomized placebo controlled clinical trial with fatty 15, with C15 supplementation among young adults who were graduates who had a history of fatty liver disease. And what he found, there were really key important things that happened that he found. The first is he found that two out of three of the people in his study had the definition of a C15 deficiency.
