And it was always better through the gut than through an iv. So that's been documented forever. And it avoids things like, you know, translocation, which is obviously from a leaky gut. But.
Your point? Like trying to get people to understand and meet them where they are. You know, I had a mom of like five kids come in and she was like, frazzled. But.

And I said, well, you know, I mean, do they. What are their snacks? Or what do they. You know, what do they. What do they go for? She's like, well, they really like, you know.

I don't want to say this incorrectly, but she said they, they were having energy drinks.
