Runner's World talks about the benefits of whole foods vs. energy bars and other nutrient-enhanced products. "...there's more to a carrot or a sweet potato than just vitamin A. Within
the body, vitamins, minerals, and other essential nutrients work
together with literally thousands of other compounds, such as color
compon...ents in fruits and vegetables, special starches and fibers in
whole grains, and unique fats in seeds, nuts, and dairy. And it's the
whole package that promotes good health and peak athletic performance."
