I've been enjoying Henry Abott's True Hoop basketball weblog, mostly because he's a Blazers fan and a stats head both. Before I read True Hoop I was stuck trolling around the abysmal oregon"live" web site for Blazers news.
I've also been enjoying Susan's nutrition weblog. Susan is a vegan dietitian (two ts!) in New York City who gets twice her daily recommended dosage of protein. She is taking nutrition questions from friends and enemies. I've got one!
Susan mentions that it's important to eat carbs within a half hour of finishing strenuous exercise. I've heard this about carbs and proteins both. On True Hoop, Abbott wrote a series of posts investigating the nutritional value of gatorade as a recovery drink. Also, how to clean it up.
So my question for Susan is: what is the best food or drink to have after a run or workout? I personally love Gatorade, but I'm ready to be convinced otherwise.
