Facts about sugar
The brain relies entirely on sugar calories for energy, 120g a day is required by the brain and this supply is taken from your blood sugar levels, which is constantly being depleted.
When you exercise 60% of the calories are used from sugar & 40% are used from fat. This is why it is important to top up your blood sugar levels after each work out with some fruit or an energy bar. |
