When oranges are cheap, I make juice for my wife and son, and I chow
down on the fiber left in the basket of the juicer. Our pediatrician
is in complete agreement with what you wrote. She says children need
zero fruit juice, but like your boys, mine is really active,
skateboarding, parkour, basketball...

I don't know if you weight train, but something I've started doing so
I can do a lot in a short period (superset or otherwise), is "ketoning-
up" (my term) with caprylic acid capsules before lifting, instead of
carbing-up. I'm sore all over from yesterday, but the abdomen keeps
getting smaller and the rest getting bigger. Medium chain fats can
replace all or part of pre-workout carbs. For most folks, "part" is
better because they don't agree with many folks digestive systems.
