And there's just one bug in our gut likes to drink coffee. It's called Lawsonibacter. And if you don't drink coffee, you've got very low levels of it. If you drink it, you've got very high levels of it. And what does that back does? Well, apart from eating coffee produces various metabolites which we think are good for our health, so reduces our fat levels, dampens down inflammation. That's just one example of we're going to try and work through all the foods and work out what they do and which, how to feed them. We do need longitudinal samples, ideally to see people have changed their diet and how that changes. So we've got about 20,000 people who've got, we've got two samples on. So we're going to get more of those. So I think that's, that's an exciting area. So we'll be able to give much more personalized advice for people about what they need to improve this particular good microbe. Because at the moment we're just guessing, we don't know specifically what they eat or what they need.
