What's the best time to eat a 30gram protein bar?
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Never. Eat food.
I will disagree with this statement when it comes to recovery nutrition. If you have either ran long or hard, liquid nutrition is the way to go. 3 or 4:1 carb to protein ratio, make the carbs high glycemic, and the protein fast acting like Whey.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. I've eaten real food in 21 years of running and bike racing and been just fine, and quite competitive in my younger days. For a few months one year, I switched to the "proper" recovery stuff recommended by all the best marketing departments and could tell absolutely no difference. Eat Food. Not Too Much. Mostly Plants.
You may very well be right on all that science. All those many, many long, polysyllabic words I can't pronounce. I have no idea and hopefully won't ever know. But doesn't all that over-complication of eating (and running) ever make you wanna just chill out and have a banana?

lots of "science" (or scientific words) without any references
Lol. I eat a banana everyday for lunch. It's really not that complicated if you want to perform at 100% of your potential. But you know, if it's all just recreational then hell...eat anything you want that works.
