And this is where I started putting connecting the dots, right? Where I started coming across this literature of these endurance athletes who do get a higher amount of respiratory tract infections, you know, like when I mean endurance athletes, I mean these guys that are like outr running marathons all year. Like they're just constantly training for a marathon, right? >> And so they're really like they're putting a lot of demand, right? energetic expenditure is happening at a really high rate. So, um they are they're more prone to respiratory infections. And there's a few studies out there showing that if these athletes take a higher dose of glutamine, I think it's like 30 grams or something high like that, that they had a lower incidence of respiratory tract infections than ones that weren't doing it.
