Mm-hmm.

And I mean, there's just like we were just chatting about a recent study coming out.

Yeah.

Endothelial cells have transporters for creatine.

I've also come across some other like cardiometabolic health benefits.

So glucose, but also triglycerides.

Was cholesterol in there too?

Can you talk about that?

Is that maybe some mixed data?

I'm not sure if everything is showing the same.

So creatine decreases body fat in combination with resistance training compared to resistance training alone.

Well, going back to this loading phase and this higher dose, I mean, when I say higher, I mean 20 grams.

All these studies doing that, I mean –

barring the brain stuff, is it really just to, like, kind of get their store saturated quickly because the study is you're not going to wait 30 days?

So it's really, you know, all these other people trying to do this loading stuff, just kind of following the studies, but really they don't have to do that unless they, like...

tomorrow when I hit the gym and have that explosive power benefit.

You just brought up a point that I was thinking of, and that is surgery or injury.

Because that's a stressful situation.

We're talking about really creatine shining in that background of some sort of stress, whether it's training or sleep deprivation, but also you can have something like an injury or a surgery where you're...

planning a stressful event?
