Eating - the breakfurst of champions

There is a lot of missconceptions of food, eating and nutrition out there.

I follow what is called a nehandertal or 40.000 year old eating idea.
Meaning you eat, fruit, vegetables, fat, protein but avoid sugar as pasta, ris, bread and potato and ofc also candy as much I can ;)

The idea is several, a more plane smooth curve of bloodsugar is a result, meaning better Performance over time. Need bananas out there?
Might try, fruit of a different kind and maybe some nuts.

You also eat less, much less.

Eating like this have for me allowed a better bloodsugar curve, I am less tired and have less dips in the day.
I eat and are seldom hungry even if I dont eat a lot.

Much of how I eat is this,
in the morning, 2 eggs boiled, yoghurt and grains and coffe with some cream into.
Dinner often bacon, ham and egg and vegetables and some keso, yoghurt or such to spice it up and add some flavour.
I eat maybe half of what I used to eat and I can even go by eating less from time to time depending on my schedule.

This have with crossfit brought my strength up, endurance up, lost some weight, added some muscles and lost some fat.
I still have a long way to go, but I consider this summer playing golf the test of continue my eating schedule, continue doing crossfit and working on my game as I build endurance and strength.

How you eat affect your performance in several ways, if you get insulin rushes, you get tired faster, loose focus and concentration can be affected.
You get a better overall health and can stay fit easier, regain your stamina faster after competition, and that is useful if your doing several days of competition in a row.
