[QUOTE="Bebo321, post: 1269052, member: 68730"] I am guessing you are following a low carb diet (and if you're not, I suggest you do :wideyed:). Just as [USER=219467]@bulkbiker[/USER] says, once your body has adjusted to burning fats you can run without having to worry about taking on board extra fuel. In theory you could help replace glycogen stores that have been used during a run after the event - useful to do perhaps after a particularly long run, or when you are running over successive days. By avoiding replenishing the glycogen stores through food however your liver will have to work at converting fat and protein to top those stores up, which may be a handy way to improve insulin resistance. Good advice to drink plenty of water. NB. Just as [USER=74042]@ElyDave[/USER] points out, if you are taking insulin, or any drugs that artificially increase the amount of insulin your pancreas is secreting, then you need to be far more careful and suggest you seek advice from your doctor.
