so the whole thing is a brilliant i mean it's a brilliant system to set the energy levels down in a cell and it mimics the condition of starvation and that by by reducing the energy in the cell it triggers an alarm signal it's like a mayday and that is what leads to a survival response to try to gain you know makes the animal get hungry thirsty forage for food try to store fat try to store glycogen it it's like an alarm signal saying hey you're you're going to be in trouble and what we need to do is we need to store energy as a means to help you because winter's coming you know or you know you're going to be without food you're going to have to travel 2 000 miles and you know buy air by flying to a place and you're not going to be able to eat or anything when you're flying over that ocean you know and so uh it's a survival pathway
