MDW: Is 32GI sufficient as a pre race breakfast? Assuming that my nutrition during the race is sufficient for arguments sake

[Christopher Brunsdon]

I would recommend Xylitol over fructose for my customers during the day as well, but not for cooking with. I do also think you need to limit the intake of Xylitol, only for the fact that it can cause stomach irritability, ie: the runs in large doses.

But wiser choice.

 

Yeah, was warned about those runs

 

My son was recommended Xylitol by an ortho-molecular specialist, Mark B. Zuhrbrigghen. Since then I've tried it on and off and now full time.

Thats an excellent question :-)

 

Generally I would want to take in closer to 100grams of carbs pre-race, low GI of course, so I take in a slice of toast or 2 and then a half serving of 32Gi, in a concentrate, the balance i might sip on a little before the race, I cannot take in too much liquid. The answer is YES you can use it as a pre-race load, I just prefer something a little more solid inside.

Also remember to play with it in training to see how it works for you.

 

all the best

Thought so! Currently im taking 60grams of raw oats and some whey protein as breakfast with a serving of 32GI pre race. Im also struggling with too much fluid before race. Will try your half serving as concentrate 1hr before race. Thanks for that!

 

You have been very helpful and open to everybody enquiring about the product. I have huge respect for that. I believe you have a special product here and i advocate it. Will keep on supporting!! Thanks bud!!

No problem, by the way, I only have 150ml - 200ml with the half serving i find its more than sufficient, i feel too bloated with any more liquid.

By the way we are launching 2 new products soon, which will answer the need for a little more of a kick, BUT a great taper, its been tested the past 3 months and nearly ready
