Todd, has that been your experience? Others on the list?

I have also heard about people who seem to do quite well in the gym
supposedly on very low carb, e.g. 30g per day, and wondered if that was just
a story or if it was true.

I guess runners or other endurance exercisers could function quite well on
very low carb in that those muscles are slow twitch and can be happy eating
fat and ketones rather than glycogen?
