It's the same as sugar, but if it fits your macros then go for it.

You're suffering from carb flu! (Although hopefully you'll be over it by now!). Key things to do are:

  • drink plenty of water
  • eat plenty of fat
  • make sure you're keeping your electrolyte levels up - you need sodium, magnesium and potassium. This means cooking with salt/adding salt to your food and eating things like salmon, avocado, spinach and full fat natural yoghurt
