FUELING WITH FAT

  • Our nut butters are great for exercise.
  • If you’re fat adapted, you can do those ultra events without all of the sugary and carby products.
  • When you’re fueling on sugar and carbs, you’re going to have to consume so much more often.
    • Fuel from fat burns slower–in a good way. 
    • Vinnie also found that his stomach was so much worse during races when he ate all this sugar.
      • He would puke. Now that he doesn’t fuel with sugar, that’s largely gone away.
  • Do you want to eat Gu every 20 minutes, or just have some nut butters and the like every couple hours?
    • As you can imagine, one is definitely better for your body (and brain!).
  • It does take time to get fat adapted — commit, and you’ll benefit as Vinnie, Gina’s fiancé, and so many others have.
  • Once you’re fat adapted, it takes a bit to turn that fat into energy.
    • It’s a slower burn, but your brain prefers it, and your body works great.
