I am sure you get asked a million nutrition & training questions and have to start everything with "what works for ME is ..." :)<br /><br />I am currently getting a Plant Based Certification from Cornell from T. Collin Campbell's online course and it is really eye opening in regards to protein and what people THINK we need. <br /><br />The bottom line is, put down the box, bag, and six pack and just start eating more natural. Don't deprive yourself if it will mean a total binge later. <br /><br />Looking foward to Part 2!

So low fat food is inviting people to get fatter, not leaner. Carbohydrates (sugars, starch etc.) generate all the fat in our bodies. They are either used as an energy source either right away, or, if we eat more calories than we needed in that day, are stored as fat. Only the carbohydrates are the source of body fats. All fats can only be burnt up as energy or else be discharged again. Ever since low-fat became a fashion, people got fatter.

The refined carbs is what we should cut. Paleo can have a lot of carbs, and certainly hough to fuel an ultra runner.<br /><br />Thanks for the article.<br /><br />AndyAndy Reednoreply@blogger.com
