Physiology Friday #253: Low-carb Matches High-carb for Performance: Is it Time to Question the Obligatory Role of Glycogen for Endurance Exercise?

Physiologically Speaking

Adding to this controversy are questions about carbohydrate supplementation during exercise, particularly whether minimal carbohydrate intake can deliver performance benefits or if higher intakes are necessary to sustain energy levels and delay fatigue. And how effective is minimal carbohydrate supplementation during prolonged exercise?
