You really must have a good life to dislike a video of a guy running 165km to raise money for an animal sanctuary

Towards the end of the race, the sweet potatoes you ate looked like they had something slathered on them. Was it peanut butter?

No salt? Interesting. Are you a person who sweats less than others? Was the temperature mild? Fellow vegan here who has a tough time without a little sodium during endurance events so I'm just curious. I throw some salt on my fruit when out on an all day adventure. I know the science tells us excess sodium is bad but too low is also bad. Those pizzas had plenty of sodium to replenish you, I'm sure!
@KiwiBigfoot3 жыл бұрын
We wouldn’t drink salt water from the sea, so why put it on our food? It’s a myth as far as I am concerned. Done 100km and 100miler no salt. Ha yes they do but I did not ‘need’ the sodium from the pizza. I just ate it for taste. It was hot as it was held in our summer. How did you have a tough time?
@jmax97823 жыл бұрын
@@KiwiBigfoot The concentration of salt in the ocean is quite high. I don't eat any prepared foods, just fruit, veg, and legumes so if I don't add any salt I wont be getting any at all. Nor will I get much iodine and vegans tend to have low iodine levels, which is not good. I sweat a lot so without a little salt I can get get a little nausea, light headed, jittery, weak, and even a little cold. I think these are symptoms of low blood pressure. And keep in mind that sodium is necessary for its electrical conductivity.
