[QUOTE="Jayderb, post: 2009677, member: 497684"] Hi, I have been looking into this recently and I am still not convinced of going back into powders following diagnosis (my consultant is yet to decide if I am T1 or T2 - long story for another day) I weight train and run but have a novice triathlon background and understand the nutrition needs that come with long distance cycling. Agreeing with most here, I strongly advocate for wholesome foods in lieu of processed powder mainly due to the fact that I only trust the contents of what I process from raw materials myself bar a few items like peanut butter and dark chocolate. That said and done, I understand the hunger and need for instant nutrition following long rides. Personally I go for a mixture of Skyr and wholesome peanut butter and on odd days I might add half a banana (watching the carbs). This seems to work for me especially following a heavy weight session as the protein from skyr is slow release and I wake up feeling a bit more energised than if I don’t. I hope you find something that works for you. [/QUOTE]
