Yes.
None in plants at all.
So if we're producing between, you know, one to two grams.
At best.
At best, yeah.
Just in our liver.
Correct, yeah.
And that presumably then is being transported to muscle.
Okay.
And then if – let's say you're getting – I think I was reading some NHANES study where on average people get – younger adults, not older adults, get anywhere between one to two grams a day from their diet.
Right.
But older adults are getting on that lower end even – not even necessarily even at one gram.
So older adults are getting even less.
But then –
Is there more to be consumed by the muscle or does it get spread around?
Well, let's talk a little bit about that.
So in some of these, you know, the strength training, resistance training studies, what's the common dose that's taken?
And maybe we can talk a little bit about, I mean, there's the loading phase, which I've never done.
So I actually take five grams a day.
And although I might start taking more after this podcast.
