So i could see time restricted feeding kind of serving a similar purpose, where, by the nature of not eating, say, 16 hours, and during a 24 hour period of time, you're just going to be asking your body to depend a little more on fat than you would if you were eating, and spacing to those meals out. So that could be another application. If you have poor fat oxidation rates, you're not really too keen on lowering your carbohydrodin take. This maybe a solution that would be be applicable in terms of moving the needle on that if, if that's what you're looking to do. All right, next question is thoughts on carnivore plus fruit honey versus strict carnivor. So this one's gotten a little more popular, i would say, in the last year or so, where i think we saw like a big burst into the carnivore way of eating a few years ago, and it got popular enough where a lot of people were just like, lea, try it out. Some people stuck with it. Some people did it for a little bit of time, decided it wasn't for them. Some people did it for a limited amount of time, fixed whatever issues they were having digestively, and then gradually introduced other foods and found out what works well and what doesn't for them. And other people stayed pretty regimental to it, as when they would deviate from it, they would see symptoms and things kind of come back that they had kind of clear up from a digestive standpoint with a th this way of eating. So the big hurdle that i sort of predicted, i think, when this first got popular, was that there's going to be folks, or theres goin to be a population where they're doing enough work that taps into their muscle glicagin in a significant manner, where the process of things like gluconeogenesis, or your body converting proteins and fats into glicagin, is just going to be too slow relative to the amount of moderate to high intensity work being done. So you have this scenario where you kind of have this like, downward sloping staircase scenario of musso licagin where you might feel fine for a few days, but then you hit this point where your body's like, all right, we're going to defend what's left here, and we're going to do that by making every workout you try to do feel miserable if you cross over into even rat intensity. So this is where i assumed people would start to begin to experiment with a little more carbohydrate. And a the carnivor community leaned heavily towards first honey, because it was sort of scene as an animal product, which i can appreciate to some degree, comes from a bee, so it's kind of similar to, i guess, like an egg or something like that, or milk, but a pure carbohydrate, in this case, as an option. And then eventually a things like fruit got reintroduced, mostly just because i think fruit was viewed by that community as something that just going to be a lot less likely to cause digestive issues, which i think is the big driver when this particular way of eating works, as when people have dealt with this really terrible digestion, and some of the aftermath of that s bled into other areas and symptoms and things like that. So they found out, hey, i can eat primarily animal baste, but then if i introduce some fruit and honey around some of the higher intensity, moderate intensity workouts and things like that, i can feel much better during these workouts too. And, and i applaud that cazette's kind of pudding performance as the driver, verses just trying to maintain way of eating or a alike style, that isn't necessarily going to be optimal for that individual. And with that, we just got a lot more anecdotes and a lot more data points on how kind of people felt and how people have gone about this stuff, and a in the way of going. So the way i like to talk to people about this is like, if you're doing any sort of training in which performance is your goal, and you're noticing your lose that last year, or you feel like a little flat on some of your workhouse, or you notice your performances dipping, but a lot of your other stuff is feeling great, you're in this situation where it's like you don't necessarily want to go back to what you're doing before, because that led you to ultimately wanting to change in the first place. But you sort of wanto hae the best of both worlds to some degree, where you also have that same performance, i'll put, that you maybe had on your previous way of eating. And this is where i think like this really shines, because it allows you to have a situation where you don't necessarily even need a limit your carbohydrates.
