So higher ketones, lower inflammatory bowel disease activity. So we have some data to say this makes sense. And then a... building a mountain of clinical cases saying this works. The next step is going to be to do the randomized controlled trials needed to make this mainstream. The fact of the matter is they're hard to get funded and organized.

I mean, you need millions of dollars for these studies. Big Pharma isn't paying for it. The NIH isn't giving me that money. So you need to get a little bit more creative. So the stage we're at now is getting the word out about, look, this appears to be helping people. We need more research so it can help more people.

Yes, it was the John Radcliffe Hospital and the NHS when I was at Oxford. I spent some time in a palliative care ward and ICU. And yeah, no, I was quite poorly off. I was a dangerously low weight. So malnourished that my heart rate was like dropping into the 20s. Very weak.

trauma of being like a social person who's breaking pushup records and running sub three marathons to being like, I'm in a bed, 20 something year old guy, not dating, not engaging my friends, can't even keep up with my studies, you know, wasting away physically, knowing that right now it takes me more energy to get up and go to the bathroom than running a marathon used to take and not having an answer.

Like that's where I was. So when you talk about desperation and trying something, quote, crazy, you have to understand that is the mindset that people are in when they start experimenting with these things that society still stigmatizes.

So with respect to the osteoporosis, I'll get to that first. I actually do have a very weird genetic mutation, a very, very rare one. And basically the way it probably manifested is when I got to marathon running, generally when you load bones mechanically, they should respond and get stronger. Just like when you load a muscle. When you lift up heavy weights, your muscles should get stronger.
