Again, I had to bring a coup with me to gather all the saliva that was slowly getting down from my mouth -.- :)) when I've read your article ( didin't knewed that insulin wasn't the main autacoid that handled the glucose uptake <-- from what i've read untill now and I remember atm...sleepy...I knewed that insulin activated some receptors in the cell, so the cell could take in the glucose/fat but what you said is very interesting )
Can't wait for the next article;also: In our country bb forums there is a dogma that if you eat a high carb meal and you get sleepy you are better on lower carbs and if you are energic when you eat a high carb meal you are better on a high carb diet.
The question comes : I suppose this is mostly bs ( confirm it? ) but I am curious why some times I am very energic after a high carb meal and other times like now I get sleepyness mood... ( I consumed mostly whole grain carbs )

Example: 30 minutes after workout I've consumed like 100 carbs + some protein ( I had great energy and mood ) and 1 hour and 15 minutes later i've prepared a home made pizza with whole grains and now that I ate it I'm sitting at my laptop with a laziness and sleepyness in me that I barely type. <--curious about the things that happen inside ( what mechanism triggers the sleepiness or energy , too slow glucose uptake or too fast or what ?)
I hope I didn't bored you with my silly question also keep up the good work !

James, another awesome piece. Thanks so much for breaking everything down as you've been doing.

Flo, that's a good idea for a future topic. I'll add it to my future list.

JC, thanks for the comment!
