Hint: the best diet is not necessarily the one that includes bacon-flavored everything.

In this December 14, 2011 free audio episode: which diet is the best diet, cardio and muscle loss, outdoor winter training, preparing grains, Dr. Weil's Pyramid, getting lean, antibiotics, training for a climbing expedition, what is super compensation, "cultured" vitamins, rapid weight fluctuations, good leg workouts, and electromagnetic radiation.

As I mention in my Fueling Myths book, glycemic index doesn’t matter before exercise.

Good article about Running Rules You Should Break.

It appears that even just a little intensity in your workout helps more than previously believed.

So...maybe marathon doesn’t suppress immune system...just allergies?

Before you take this as reason to begin “grazing”, notice that it is 3 meals & 2 snacks, not “6-10 a day”.
