         <p>The truth is, we lost the magic to provide an indispensable vitamin to ourselves. And that's what we are working around: is there a way to reactivate GLO gene and express functional GLO, hence pick up our long-lost magic? We've conducted some cell-level experiment and evaluated its possible effect.</p>
