First, Iām sure we can both think of numerous examples where exogenously produced vs exogenous consumed biomolecules have different implications Second, if faster assume the distinct LPC profiles would have distinct effects, rather than convergent. So I suppose itās a āwhere do you place the burden of proofā question. That is a āplace your bets,ā in a way. Third, rules of metabolism shift when you have cancer. Fourth, isnāt planting dietary dice kinda the name of the game anyway š
