I mean, it's a biological mechanism that's working for me.
And if you listen to this episode and it works for you, that's great because there's really no downside.
And in fact, I think we're going to get more and more evidence out there that it's going to be beneficial and 10 grams is going to be the new five grams.
Yeah, it's going to be the new baseline.
That's what I do.
I think the most important thing is that it's creatine monohydrate.
The reason people like CreaPure is because it's like pure.
But what I like even more than that is NSF certification because there's rigorous testing to make sure there's no lead contamination and these heavy metals and things that sort of hitchhike on a lot of these supplements.
Personally, that's what I look for.
I think CreaPure is great too, depending on whatever brand is using CreaPure.
So NSF is what I look for.
I use the Thorne.
Yeah.
I mean, it was essentially, there was third party testing looking at actually quantifying the levels of creatine monohydrate in these gummies.
And there was essentially none in 95% of them.
And that does, I think, translate to gummies in general.
I've talked to vitamin manufacturers and they've said it is incredibly challenging to get an active ingredient into a gummy and you're heating it up.
