The silliness of athletic "recovery" products

Despite the sleek runner in the TV ad and the bold claims on the crinkly package, special "recovery" food for athletes often takes advantage of unfounded science to make itself a market. It truth, regular old food (fruit, bread, juice) is more than enough to provide the nutrition the working body needs.

I like my pre-ultimate frisbee PBJ and my special "carb-loaded" beverage (read: beer) for afters.
