    Is measuring hydration using the colour of your pee is difficult if you take vitamin B as it turns your urine to bright or deep yellow colour.

    It’s kind of interesting she needs applesauce for a short run and notices a difference when not having it.

    Yes, at 5.30am that's bad! To need that for a 30 minute run at that time is crazy! At a guess I'd say it's simply a placebo affect because she's got into the habit of doing it. I'd be the opposite, if I had the apple sauce before, I'd feel WORSE in the last 10 minutes of a 30 minute run!

    You can't claim the bulk of evidence supports fueling with carbs when studies abouut fueling with protein are rare.

    Some amino acids are used as fuel. But there are studies from decades ago that do talk about protein for energy, They show when they analyze waste sources after exercise, protein is at maximum 10% of energy.
