But must see the whole context and story as well. He has a very sweet tooth also, and the NEAT / normal habits like mightnight snacking plays a part as well, and meals were fast food etc. And his sleep habit is quite screwed up. (I mean, sleep also possibly affects cancer risk as well, so does overall daily stress load ie coming from work and family as well).
But generally, unless you really overdo it and your regular eating habits is bad........ , i think is generally safe, unless genetics really screw up and you are very very susceptible. That few gels or sugary beverages wont screw you up. I drink a fair bit of kang shi fu and choc snacks, though just for the past 2 years or so.....and i check myself on the meter every 2-4 weeks. But of coz that is with my genetics and muscle mass.
But of coz, since i am testing quite regularly, that means i am not "fueling blindly" without any feedback.
Heck, even my kid tests himself every few months, i am surprised when he first time told me he DIY pokes himself....as a kid.
Lionel Sanders developed pre-diabetes primarily due to a poor diet high in processed, sugary foods and excessive simple carbs, even with his high training volume, leading to his body struggling to process sugar effectively, causing blood sugar spikes and insulin resistance despite his endurance activity. His long-term habit of consuming large amounts of carbs (like sugars and processed items) during and after training, without understanding proper post-exercise nutrition, overwhelmed his system, contributing to his prediabetic state and related issues like fatigue and injuries.
Remember, this fella's training load probably is more than the few regular posters here combined. And look at his body and physique and body fat %, he most probably has really good genetics as well with obviously really really good metabolic health with a few dozen wins in ITU world championship and Ironman races.
But of coz he eats like as if diet totally does not matter.
"I’ve eaten like garbage for years—fast food, candy, barely cooking, just fueling for training. I thought it didn’t matter. Turns out, it did. My first-ever blood test showed I’m sitting at a 5.9 A1C, right on the edge of pre-diabetes "
