The body is such a fascinating machine because it's
It's it's almost like that um saying one man's trash is another man's treasure.
You put a protein into the body, protein is useless when you put it into the body, until
It is converted to amino acids.
Amino acids are not proteins, they're the building blocks of proteins.
We have protein equivalents, one kilogram of protein, I mean one gram of protein for every kilogram of body weight, not because we need a protein equivalent, because we need an essential amino acid equivalent.
So we're getting to the raw material.
The body is going to break that protein, whether it is collagen or fish or egg or plant protein.
It is eventually going to turn that into amino acids.
And then amino acids are gonna go build structures in the human body.
And and sadly, we cannot target direct protein in the human body.
Right, we don't eat our nails to grow our nails, and we don't eat our hair to grow our hair, um, and we don't eat collagen to grow collagen.
Collagen, like any other protein, is going to turn into amino acids.
And yes, if your body needs collagen, elastin, fibrin, it can build those structures, but from the same amino acid as an egg protein.
So
What's fascinating is you know, when when when we talk about um uh creatine specifically, it is a part of this methylation cycle and it is absolutely critical

Sam E is the main the number one methyl donor in the human body.
When you become deficient in creatine, which your body does produce, but when you're deficient in this nutrient
