So have there been studies looking at 10 grams?

Is that like a sweet spot?

You went to another area that I definitely want to talk about.

But, like, before that, so 20 grams then you're saying acutely when you're in this sleep-deprived state, jet lag, you know, let's say fill-in-the-blank type of, you know, extreme stress.

Right.

Is that immediate?

So let's say like you miss, you're like up late, you're up late one night and you have something to do the next morning or the next day, you have to be like on your game.

If you take that 20 grams either at night, would you take it at night like before you go to sleep or in the morning or does it matter and will it have an effect immediately?

I wonder if there's any effect just because it was sort of a triaging of like it's helping with the energy.

So what would be a protocol for someone that, you know, let's say they take a blow to the head or they get hit with a ball, a soccer ball or, you know, whatever, the football, whatever sport that they're doing, would it be like they should be taking high dose immediately?

Yeah.

And they shouldn't be taking it for the benefits on muscle and explosive power and those high-intensity moments.

You mentioned earlier about 0.1 grams per kilogram body weight.
