Today, I link to, excerpt from, and embed Metabolic Mind and Dr. Andrew Koutnik, PhD’s “NEW Research Challenges Everything We Know About Carbs & Exercise“.
All that follows is from the above resource.
NEW Research Challenges Everything We Know About Carbs & Exercise
📌 What you’ll learn:
- How carb-loading is increasing the risk of prediabetes in fit, lean, athletes
- How glycogen and carbohydrate intake have been mistaken as the primary predictors of performance
- Why maintaining stable blood glucose is the real key to performance
- A new model for fueling that prioritizes brain energy and metabolic health
This conversation is for athletes at every level, from elite competitors to everyday movers, and for anyone curious about how metabolism shapes performance, resilience, and long-term health.
