The Flaws in Common Nutrition Advice For Endurance Athletes: Wade Lightheart

Our bodies are amazing and they are surprisingly individual. One
person could eat loaves of Wonder Bread with negligible effects
to blood sugar while another person’s levels would skyrocket.
Science doesn’t quite understand why there are such dramatic
differences, but we know that they are there.


So what does this mean for the average athlete? How does our
fueling and overall nutrition need to change to work with our own
unique metabolism?


These are the questions that Wade Lightheart is on a mission to
answer. You’ll learn:


Why standard nutrition advice for runners is flawed

How to figure out what your unique body needs and

How testing and data collection can help



If you are looking to optimize your nutrition scientifically,
this is the episode for you.

MassZymes from BiOptimizers 

Digestive enzymes are naturally occurring proteins that your body
makes to help break down food and aid digestion.  


Since we know stomach issues are such a prevalent issue for
runners, we asked our friends at BiOptimizers to hook you up so
you could try digestive enzymes with no risk to see if they can
work for you.  


Right now you can get a bottle of MassZymes for FREE. All you
need to do is pay a small shipping fee and there’s no
catch.  


There’s no tricks, no forced continuity, nothing to cancel. 


MassZymes is a 17-enzyme full-spectrum formula that contains all
of the key enzymes needed for optimal digestion. 


It also contains AstraZyme which is an all-natural, plant-derived
compound that boosts amino acid absorption by 30-60
percent.
