Maybe Tom has some thoughts or may Lynn has some thoughts on this but what
about potential adverse insulin reactines associated with the use of
carbohydrate supplementation - especially pre, during and after a ride.
Several years ago at a distance clinic Kerry Ridgeway, DVM talked of seeing
such reactions from the use of large amounts of grain during a ride.

I know adverse insulin reactuibs can be an issue with humans.

This is one of the reasons why I tend to be very conservative with my
feeding and supplementation program. Can shine some lignt on this issue.
