I agree. Plus if you look at 90 day credit card delinquency’s and credit card balances they’re going in the opposite direction. Delinquency’s are going down right now, but inflation can change this quickly. It’s been said that the lower del

No, and it wold probably make things worse if this is true. Tryptophan is turned into NAD but if you do not have enough of the cofactors to make NAD down the Kynurenine pathway then you will just deplete yourself of cofactors even further.
