Fitness GU?

Howard Schneider of The Washington Post gives gimmicky health and fitness foods the business…and not in a good way. Have a look:
The landscape these days is thick with sometimes conflicting advice about how, what and when you should eat and drink to get the most out of your workout: Exercising on an empty stomach burns more fat ... eating fat before a workout burns more fat ... eating right after a workout burns more fat ... not eating after a workout burns more fat. Gatorade and the other sports-drink companies make it seem as if casual sweating requires an Olympic refueling…


… But otherwise, keep it simple, and don't get lured into 300 to 400 extra calories unless you're sure you need them.

Look at the picture long enough and your brain will turn to goo.
