Ok, i've recently found a yogurt I really enjoy, and could basically eat all the time.

Below is the nutritional info:

Serving Size: 5/8 Cup (90G)
70 Calories Per Serving
Fat Calories: 0
Total Fat: 0g 0%
Sat Fat: 0g 0%
Cholesterol: 0mg 0%
Sodium: 30mg 1%
Total Carb: 18g 6%
Dietary Fiber 2g 8%
Sugars: 0g
Protein: 0g
Vitamins A & C 2%
Calcium 2%
Iron 4%

Now, to me this looks great (clean carbs), and could be eaten anytime of the day (except maybe at night - too many carbs) any comments? Anything i'm missing? or should think about when adding this to my daily food intake?

Well, actually its Poi, but I wasnt sure if anyone here knew what that is... [img]smile.gif[/img]

I have an obsession with hawaiian food, and found a "local style" grocery store here in So. Cal. that carries poi among other foods.

I was surprised to find out it was actually an "ok" food item. I think i could even have a couple bowls a day and not have it effect me negatively!

Would the carbs from this be ideal post work out? pre workout? or would it not really make a diff since its pretty clean (no sugars, bad fat, etc)?

I don't get it. If there is 18g of carbs and 2g is fiber, then how can there be 0g of sugar?

I would probably use it pre or post workout. You would have to find the GI to really know.

Littlewolf, not everything that isn't fiber is sugar. Complex carbs are made up of a bunch of sugar molecules that are together. As long as it isn't a simple sugar it is just listed as a carb.

Ask.

According to http://www.poico.com/artman/publish/article_3.shtml

"Huang says the index shows poi has a very gradual release after consumption, lasting about 4 hours. This means that long-distance runners and other endurance athletes can sustain a higher energy level after eating poi."

So how do you pronounce Poi?

I'm interested in trying it, but as I'm from Arkansas originally, I have a rule about eating things that I can't pronounce.
