About Me View My Posts
Interview discusses what to eat before, during and after a run (or work-out). Peter's important notes: Eating a balanced meal. More carbs than fat or protein before the work-out. Fat and protein digest slower, so they can "weigh you down" as they sit and metabolize. You want energy. And don't wait too long to eat after an intense work-out. Your muscles need food for recovery. Almond butter...yum. With... 5/5/2008 10:03:16 PM

I am still taken aback every time I think of the answer a patient once gave me when I asked her WHY she ate half a dozen donuts. She said, "what else could I do?"

Excessive protein may irritate the immune system and keep it in a state of overreactivity. The protein in cow's milk, specifically, is a frequent offender, and for people with a genetic predisposition to allergy it may be a hidden cause.
