More about fructose
Well this sucks..... I just came across this from one of Lyle McDonald's writings:
Quote:
Prior to the depletion workout, it is important that you get out of
ketosis by consuming 50 grams of carbs (fruit is ideal) about 2 hours
before the workout. The rationale is this: while in ketosis, the body will
prefer ketones to glucose for fuel. To achieve maximal glycogen depletion
in all muscle fibers, you need to exit ketosis. Fruit (which will
preferentially refill liver glycogen) is the ideal way to do this.

I could have sworn I've read somewhere he said it was 50g fructose. Granted, the quote is from a 1996 paper, so maybe things have been revised. I'll post more as I find it.  |
