    If you feel a difference, then keep doing it. Scientific studies tell you how the sample population responds on average. If some people experience a positive effect and others get a negative effect, that can average out to look like there’s no effect. In the end, what matters is how it affects you.

    I can say with certainty that carbs before and during a workout helps prevent me from passing out. The effect is very obvious.
