Runner's diet

Truism is that the longer the distance you want to run, the more energy you will need to reach the goal. Not without reason, however, the diet of a runner should also be rich in carbohydrates, which provide the body's energy for activity, while those eaten after the distance lead to the rebuilding of muscle glycogen. A runner's diet, like everyone else, should be diverse, nutritious and nutritionally rich. However, in order to create energy savings for healthy animals, it is also important to calculate the following nutritional needs of the body: the total dietary intake of fish (CMPs) and the total intakes of its nutrients from the body to the dietary sources of the rest of the organism.

Runner's diet is a menu

The proposed menu should be taken as an example and inspiration for the creation of meals to meet individual energy needs and individual nutrients. Breakfast: oatmeal on milk with nuts and bananas. Recipe for oats on fresh nut and banana milk. Ingredients: 1⁄2 1⁄2 cup of milk 1⁄2 glass of water oats 5 tablespoons of peanut butter 10 1/2 tablesps of banana 1 small art. Preparation: cook the apples on apple.

Dietary supplements for runners

It is worth noting that a low-calorie diet that we are unable to provide in combination with a well-balanced diet.
