carbo loading

Episode 29: Chatting about the carb-loaded first week of summer, the corrosive effects of reboot/remake culture, Robert, the fantasy author can’t remember Anduril, Flame of the West, a deep discussion into the greatest TV show of the last decade, and the fraught consequences of the sexual revolution. 

In this episode of The Knowledge Podcast by Wahoo, hosts Jinger Gottschall and Mac Cassin explore the age-old question of whether to load or not to load on carbs, water, and bicarb before exercise. They discuss the benefits and limitations of carbohydrate-loading, including how it can increase both muscle and liver glycogen, essential fuel stores for sustained high-intensity exercise. Jinger and Mac also examine the role of water in preventing dehydration and how pre-exercise hyperhydration can improve endurance capacity. Additionally, they discuss the use of sodium citrate and sodium bicarbonate in increasing plasma volume and delaying exhaustion during high-intensity exercise. Tune in to discover the latest research on these strategies and decide for yourself whether loading up is the way to go!

Professor Noakes was born in Harare, Zimbabwe in 1949. As a youngster he had a keen interest in sport and attended Diocesan College in Cape Town. Following this he studied at the University of Cape Town (UCT) and obtained an MBChB degree in 1974, an MD in 1981 and a DSc (Med) in Exercise Science in 2002.

In the early 90s, Noakes teamed up with Morné du Plessis to drive the founding of the Sports Science Institute of South Africa (SSISA). The Institute was built to provide a facility that would primarily fund research in sports performance. The application of this research would provide sports personnel of all disciplines with the means to improve. Noakes and du Plessis also wanted to use it as a platform to build public interest in the country’s top sports people and build state pride.

Prof Noakes has published more than 750 scientific books and articles. He has been cited more than 19,000 times in scientific literature, has an H-index of 71 and has been rated an A1 scientist by the National Research Foundation of South Africa for a second 5-year term.  He has won numerous awards over the years and made himself available on many editorial boards.

He has a passion for running and is still active, running half marathons when he can.  He is a devoted husband, father and grandfather and now, in his retirement, is enjoying spending more time with his family.

The Noakes Foundation is a Non-Profit Corporation founded for public benefit which aims to advance medical science’s understanding of the benefits of a low-carb high-fat (LCHF) diet by providing evidence-based information on optimum nutrition that is free from commercial agenda.

The foundation is currently looking for funding to run several of its ground-breaking research programs into healthy eating based on the Low Carbohydrate eating science.

As required by the Companies Act, all funds will be used to achieve the goals of the foundation, and will not be directly or indirectly distributed to any person unless it supports the fulfillment of these objectives.
