So there's many different brands. So first of all, full disclosure, I am the founder of a supplement company and our product that we offer, which I'll talk about more in a moment, would be something that can address this specific issue and was designed by me.

But let's get the lay of the land first, which is that in gastroenterology, it is standard medical care to include fiber supplements for this kind of issue. This is what we're trained to do. Psyllium husk is a classic. That's Metamucil. You can also look at alternative choices would be like there's Benefiber, which is wheat dextrin. There's Acacia fiber. There's partially hydrolyzed guar gum.

So those are some of the classics. Now, the issue from my perspective is that in my medical practice for many years, like going back to 2014, I was using fiber supplements routinely for probably 90 to 95% of the people who came through the doors of my clinic. and with good effect. But the problem is that A few things. Number one, these are monofibers, right?

So we sit here and we talk about how variety is key. And then we go and we supplement with just one type of fiber. That would be like supplementing with just one amino acid as opposed to looking at the spectrum of amino acids. So that's one of the issues. The other issue from my perspective is that these sources of fiber, there's absolutely no transparency. An example, wheat dextrin, right?

That's a wheat product, right? Glyphosate is commonly sprayed on wheat to dry it out. Do we know that this product does not contain glyphosate? No, we do not. It's not certified glyphosate-free. There's no transparency. There's no third-party testing. Okay, so the reason that I started 38 Terra, my supplement company,

was basically to address the issues that I'm pointing out right here, which is that we've learned a lot from science in the last 10 years. And that should be incorporated into our supplements where we're not doing monofibers, we have a blend. So our daily microbiome nutrition has seven different plant-based ingredients. They're all seven are prebiotic.

They're given in specific amounts that have been proven in human clinical studies to provide microbiome benefits and benefits for pooping. And then we test aggressively this product.
