This food and your training
This food is low in calories (40 kcal per 100 g) yet rich in fibre and micronutrients (vitamins, minerals). It adds volume and satiety without weighing on your calorie total — a valuable ally when cutting.
Its carbohydrate dominance makes it a good choice around training: before, for energy; after, to rebuild muscle glycogen and kick-start recovery.
It contains almost no protein (1 g per 100 g): an almost pure carbohydrate source, to be seen as energy rather than a muscle-building food.
