Hey guys, just wondering how beneficial or even important it is to consume simple carbs in the morning? I've read that over night we lose about 80% of our glycogen, wouldn't it be good to replenish it quickly by eating a fruit in the morning? Many people (me included) get their protein from protein powder for breakfast as well, in order to provide our muscles with the amino acids quickly so I assume doing the same with fruits could be quite wise too, couldn't it?
My breakfast consists of a glass of protein powder, oats and a banana, however, I mostly use the banana for flavoring, as stuffing factor and as a tool of kick starting my way. And I definitely can use those extra 100 calories. So now I'm just wondering if the simple carbs are beneficial/important for replacing glycogen or is the carbs of the oats enough, even tho they're complex ones?
Oh and don't worry, I won't omit the banana if the simple carbs aren't necessary, a fruit in the morning still is a very good thing to eat I guess
Thanks!
