Day # 17 Energy Food

When you're on a cycling tour, it's a good idea to remember to bring along vitamin pills.
In an earlier blog, I mentioned that while doing the Confederation Trail in PEI, my blood got very low on iron, unbeknownst to me, and I had severe dizzy spells.
I had to leave the RCAF Reunion just an hour after getting there. Couldn't stay in the dinner line-up.
I thought I was having a stoke, actually, and laid low a couple of days.
Too much seafood, no beef.
Here is a tip I just read in a magazine at work.
Chocolate milk will give you energy, and a boost, just the same as energy drinks.
The proof of that is easy: just drink a chocolate milk before bedtime, and see if you can then get to sleep. I sure can't.
