Moro et al., 2020 (1), set out to test time-restricted eating in a group of young elite cyclists. However, their study is full of errors and confusion. We do not learn much. The rare intersting result is that the young cyclists could handle 700 grams a day of carbohydrates, in the context of a total caloric intake of 4800 kCal, without an increase in insulin and triglycerides. The study by More et al., 2020 (1), is another illustration of the fact that, in certain conditions, a very high carbohydrate intake can be well-tolerated and may not damage metabolism immediately. It is, however, not clear what impact such diet may have on metabolism at a longer term.

High-carb athletes may burn fat at almost the same rate as low-carb athletes if they do not consume carbohydrates before their training session.

Each of the dots represents a real living person. The traced pathways are, therefore, something real and achievable. You can live this life and never be biologically older than 33.
