Yeah, and again, coming back to the vegans, that comes to mind because you're talking about women who are pregnant who are only relying on their liver ability to make creatine, right?
So that would be phenomenal to get a study like that done.
But do you think it'll be approved?
I know I'm jumping all over the place here, but going back to the kids, you mentioned the creatine supplementation was shown to improve agility.
Now, why is that?
Is that because of the type 2 muscle fight?
Okay.
Well, getting into some of the supplementation questions, and I think we've kind of touched on quite a few, but I want to kind of dive a little bit deeper.
You first mentioned, of course, I think a lot of people that are familiar with the creatine field know creatine monohydrate.
Creatine monohydrate.
Is that still...
the gold standard for supplementing with creatine?
If so, why?
Well, why do people turn to these other forms?
Is it because of GI distress that can be experienced with monohydrate?
It seems as though, like, I get mixed reviews.
I'll talk to, like, almost, like, 50% of people say, hey, like,
I get GI, like, stomach distress, GI problems if I take creatine monohydrate.
Some people have to go to another form or they have to lower their dose.
Why does that happen?
