“if if i don't know this to be the case but i would be curious you know if if you're eating a diet with 500 milligrams of sodium per day and your fasting insulin is eight or nine i would say we can make an argument i don't know if that's what your number is because we don't have the numbers but that's my concern is that fasting insulin is going to have to work very hard to conserve all of that sodium and and that could have problematic consequences down the line”
