Ferarri, 2006, pertinent to the alleged discovery of carbohydrates post-2020.
Thanks for the link! Interesting that the study quoted was from 1993 - 30 years ago.
"10g of CHO/kg of body weight is a remarkable amount of carbs: for an athlete of 70kg it corresponds to 700g, which is an amount quite hard to reach with a traditional nutrition strategy, even if rich in pasta, rice, potatoes, cereals, etc.
I remind that for pasta, rice and cereals, 75-80% of the weight is CHO, for potatoes it is 20-25%, for fresh fruit and vegetables is about 10%. "
So we're talking about the equivalent of 900g of pasta or rice per day ... wow!
This is the link to the recent article on carbs -

Interesting that what I wondered about the recovery process of top guys must be more then the ice tub (even with psychoactive bathsalts) is being claimed to be down to nutrition.
So I wonder where do ketones come into this as the ketone diet is when you limit the amount of carbs. So ketones drinks are a way to get those high carb type intakes-
Exogenous ketone drinks work by supplying your body with beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), the ketone that your liver produces when you reduce carbohydrates. By taking them as part of your keto diet plan, you’ll be able to get a quick source of ketones and reap certain benefits. Here’s why you might...

"Our bodies produce
ketones when we restrict carbohydrates — for instance, following a
keto diet. We can also take a ketones drink (popularly called exogenous ketones) to support nutritional ketosis and experience its benefits.
Before deciding to supplement, it’s helpful to know the types of ketones that are available, how they help in certain areas of your health and wellness, their safety, and the best ketone supplements on the market.
Ketone drinks or exogenous ketones are a supplement form of ketones that your body naturally creates — in other words, endogenous ketones — by limiting carbs or entering a fasted state.
Your liver produces three types of ketone bodies, namely,
acetoacetate (AcAc),
beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), and
acetone (Ace). When you’re in a state of
ketosis, you use BHB as your main energy source instead of carbohydrates.
It’s important to note that your body is constantly producing ketones that create 22 adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy-carrying molecule, even when you’re eating carbs. However, this increases in ketosis (

When it comes to exogenous ketone supplements, you may have noticed BHB as the ketone that’s found in the drink. This is because BHB is the main energy source your body runs on.
Research suggests that 100 grams of BHB produces 10,500 grams of ATP, which is higher than glucose (
*). Taking a BHB ketone drink can support a healthy keto lifestyle, including your workouts, mental performance, and energy levels. This is why BHB ketones are considered a “superfuel” and it’s what ketone supplements are based on."
