With that said, I don't think fructose is a big problem at all. After all, it's slowly absorbed (because it goes to the liver first and requires a longer processing time) and doesn't cause a BIG insulin release (there is an insulin response though). Therefore, a piece of fruit with a P+F meal is probably okay (just like some veggies with a P+F meal is also okay).

Maybe the fruit fits into his training plan. [/quote]....but with your last meal of the day your glycogen stores are probabaly full or pretty close to full and I believe frutocse is stored as fat more easily vs. other complex carbs which digest slowly and turn into glucose(oats, etc).
