Their metabolic health is one element of context. The context around like, what is actually driving up the biomarker? Because biomarkers can change for different reasons. And you can start to gain insight into why a biomarker might be where it is when you start to know the whole patient story. Yeah.

Which is why, again, I teased it, but like I legitimately can lower my LDL with Oreos more than I can with a statin. That is not generalizable, but it comes down to the context because when you understand the physiology, you can get amazing results.

Explain that. So first, why I did this, people are going to say, well, isn't this clickbait? Oh, 100%. It was engineered to be clickbait. I was trying to engineer the most clickbaity experiment I possibly could to start a really important discussion about fascinating physiology. So it was clickbait backed by legitimate science.

Now, at the point I designed the experiment, we had already had about 10 papers on this topic. One, they weren't getting talked about, I think, enough. And two, there were what I perceived as efforts to not only suppress the dialogue, but circumvent it with misleading messaging, intellectually misleading messaging. I can support that. I realize that sounds like a strong claim.

I'll give examples later. But with the resources available to me at the time I was 27, I was like, how can I force this discussion? I am not a esteemed professor emeritus. I do not have millions of dollars. I don't even have that big a social media profile at the time.

will catch attention and hopefully bring people towards a more nuanced discussion that needs to happen so i designed this study and to be clear i designed it and announced it before i did it i thought it was the appropriate scientific thing to do saying like this is my prediction based on my understanding of the physiology then i'm going to do it it's your hypothesis hypothesis um i announced it on you can even look chris mccaskill goes by plant chompers is a prominent vegan i announced on his platform
