"lemon peel" in the usda db doesn't seem to contain that much so I wonder if it's the zest and not the white stuff that has been measured...</p><p></p><p>In the summer naturally I'll just buy lots of melons and such top sources.</p><p></p><p>Thanks for reading!</p></div> https://www.thefrugivorediet.com/forum/topics/salt-training-for-endurance-triathlon-on-80-10-10 2014-03-10T14:18:50.000Z 2014-03-10T14:18:50.000Z Quirkey https://www.thefrugivorediet.com/members/Quirkey <div><p>Hi -</p><p>I'm new to 80/10/10 and new to the the forum, so please help me; for I am an ignoramus!</p><p></p><p>I'll be ramping up the miles toward another season of endurance triathlon.  It my third year and this year I'll be doing it on 80/10/10...</p><p></p><p>Are there any other tri-hards or endurance athletes on here?</p><p></p><p>Its fun to try and discuss the merits of 80/10/10 with my local fellow tri-hard mates who are well and truly riveted to Paleo!  They all think I'm as mad as a bag of cut snakes!</p><p></p><p>Little bit concerned about salt intake for the longer sessions, and the intention is to drop the usual electrolyte tabs in the H20.  Any problems with this?</p><p></p><p>Cheers</p><p>Quirkey</p><p></p><p></p></div>
