A new study, "International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Metabolism" found that potato chips (fast food) bought from McDonald's and sports food, as capable of de novo synthesis of glycogen (ie, recovery), as recommended to the movement of people after eating the product. The research team measured the number of different recovery-related data - thigh muscle glycogen content, and then test time performance cholesterol from the blood, two recovery methods are unable to find any significant differences.

Hamburg fries = junk food? Experiments show that the effect is equivalent nutrition
 
In this study, 11 amateur athletes were tested for either training on the exercise bike. After 90 minutes of exercise, they accept the muscle biopsy test glycogen depletion levels. Over the next four hours, they rest in a chair, two were edible food - fast food or sports meal. After four hours the amount of a leg of a biopsy, subjects completed a 20-kilometer race as a test of time, in order to confirm their muscle glycogen synthesis.
 
All subjects were following a plan, within one week after the random motion eating a snack or meal motion. What they will be told that food is, you can see all the packaging, labels and boxes. The food is about 70% carbohydrate, 10% protein. Whether it is sports or fast food meal contains almost the same amount of carbohydrates, protein, fat and calories.
 
 
The researchers found that two types of food glycogen synthesis, glucose produced by the reaction, insulin response and cholesterol test reaction time performance levels are similar identity. Principal Investigator Brent - Lubiboshi said: "We expect to see both of glycogen in the same, but we do not want to get blood data substantially the same, or nearly the same time the number of trials Our findings show that if. adequate intake of fast-food component, and sports nutrition products can provide the same muscle glycogen, while the latter will cost more.
