And I put you on a bike and you're in my research facility.
Like those are the numbers that work.
When you cross over into humans, you start getting really tired of goo.
don't want to taste sugary drinks anymore.
And so when you get past a couple of hours of exercise, then you actually start really paying attention to texture and flavor profile and mouthfeel because that stuff starts to matter and you can't hit those numbers.
They're just not realistic.

This is the fast sugars.
But if you're going to go for more in a couple of hours, you got to really think carefully about, are you sure you're going to like that taste of that for six hours?
Because you probably won't.
Depends on...
