![]() ![]() Add 7 drops of stevia to the fig mix, stir, and spread atop the bottom dough layer. Press half of the dough into the bottom of the dish (you will need to use your hands). Mix all the dough ingredients (it will be very thick.you will be thinking, 'wow, I need more milk', but this is not the case). Mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl (oil, applesauce, maple syrup, coconut milk, vanilla, and 8 drops of stevia). Mix the dry ingredients (oat flour, buckwheat flour, brown rice flour, chia flour, baking powder, and salt). Let sit for about 15 minutes until cooled a bit. While they cool, begin mixing the dough.

You should be drinking small amounts of fluids with any concentrated carbohydrate sources, including gels and blocks, because concentrated carbs and/or electrolytes will temporarily pull fluid out of the rest of your body and into the digestive tract if you do not supply water from an outside source. Likewise, the amount of blood available to your muscles will not be compromised by the digestion of small carb snacks. This means that digestion will have no significant impact on the oxygen supply to muscles during training. (It does become a factor for individuals with respiratory disease like COPD who have chronically high levels of CO2). The hypoxic (lack of oxygen) drive to breath is actually a secondary system that rarely comes into significant play for healthy individuals, even during intense activity. Actually, you don't breathe harder and deeper during exercise due to a lack of oxygen, you do so because you need to get rid of excess CO2 that is the end product of the breakdown of acids produced by increased metabolism. The few grams of fiber are not enough to cause bulking problems in your digestive tract and may help prevent unpleasant side effects like loose stools or GI leakage in susceptible individuals.Īny relatively healthy individual doing any significant activity has more than enough oxygen in their bloodstream to meet even the greatest physical demands. They provide a steady source of energy along with appropriate amounts of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium.
