So the negative effects of fructose at the level of the gut and humans is driven by endotoxin. And we don't get more endotoxin when we eat fruit. In fact, I think you could easily make a case that when you eat a blueberry or you're eating a persimmon or you're eating orange juice, endotoxin, which is lipopolysaccharide, goes down.

But the harmful effects of fructose in humans are isolated fructose feeding leading to LPS. So it's just Again, it really mirrors a lot of the discussion around seed oil research or ApoB. I think that people in the health space are well-intentioned and super intelligent, but I really hope we can all come together and consider all of the research in its entirety with candor.

Because I think if you just... It's hard, we need a lot of people to look at this because it's easy for one person, and I will raise my hand, I wanna collaborate with people who think differently than me. It's easy for one person just to see the research in less than its entirety.

And if you're only looking at the fructose research in humans that's isolated fructose feeding, or you're only looking at the research with LDL in people that are insulin resistant, or you're only looking at the seed oil research in the trials that are flawed because of their design, you're gonna come to the wrong conclusion. And that's the problem here.

Maha, you know, like Make America Healthy Again gets me pretty excited. I was pretty bummed to see RFK Jr. with the photo of the McDonald's on the plane. Oh, that one bummed me out too. RFK, come on. But I believe his heart is good. And I'm really excited to see where it goes over the next four years. I mean, who, Jay Bhattacharya, did you see this? Head of the NIH?

Yeah, this researcher from Stanford was recently nominated for the head of the NIH. So Jay Bhattacharya was one of the guys kind of raising the alarm during COVID.

Yeah, he was nominated for the head of the NIH. You know, RFK Jr., head of Health and Human Services. I think Marty McQuarrie is head of the FDA potentially, right? So it's going to be interesting to see where this goes. Yeah. Because I think that at the level of the Senate, You have a Republican-controlled Senate, but you have a lot of people in the Senate who have ties to Big Food.

So I think that there's going to be—hopefully there's enough pressure.
