Pie Chart: Scientific Study shows Carbohydrate Protein and Fat breakdown of the elite ETHIOPIAN Marathon runners.

Ethiopian distance runners use a 95% Vegetarian anti-Paleo diet based on large volumes of Grain and Bread. The top ETHIOPIAN endurance runners who are winning the most official races are eating over 75% percent carbs, 14 percent protein, 11 percent fat, and the individuals are thin, muscular, and lean, do not use supplements, and have no known nutritional deficiencies. The #1 athletes are winning marathons with a high-carbohydrate diet full of large volumes of cooked wheat, corn, and full of Grain.

This is designated as a High-carb Low-Fat (HCLF) diet. It is a native tribal grain-rich diet, similar to 80-10-10. It is diametrically opposed to Paleo, Atkins, and Lowcarb diets. The Ethiopians follow a nearly entirely plant-based diet (95% Vegetarian, hardly any meat, mainly plant-based). The results are published in the peer-reviewed scientific journal Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition under the auspices of BioMed Central.

Pie Chart: Scientific Study reveals Carbohydrates Protein Fat Analysis of Kenyas Elite Marathon runners diet.

Gram-basis peer-reviewed nutritional analysis shows Kenyan athletes are ingesting an 86-10-6 99% Vegetarian anti-Paleo diet based on Grain. The top endurance athletes un the world are eating a diet of a whopping 86 percent carbs, 10 percent protein, 6 percent fat, and are thin, muscular, and lean and with no supplements no known nutritional deficiencies. Most of the athletes ran only 6k in the morning, and 4k in the evening. Some training as little as 26 minutes per day of pace running, and still remained lean and fit and set distance records on a high-carbohydrate diet full of large volumes of cooked Grains.

A High-carb Low-Fat (HCLF) grain-rich diet, similar to 80-10-10, non-Atkins, non-lowcarb, nearly entirely plant-based diet is found producing the #1 endurance athletes in the world. The results are published in the peer-reviewed scientific journal The British Journal of Nutrition.

Peer-Reviewed Journal: International Journal of Sport Nutrition & Exercise Metabolism


RESEARCH:


The subjects in the present study (Kenyan elite distance runners) consumed a diet with a variety of foods, mainly of vegetable origin. ( Elite marathon runners were 99% vegetarian).

This study is in agreement with other published dietary studies of endurance athletes from other countries(5,6).  (Tarahumara indians 96% vegetarian, Ethiopians 95% vegetarian)
The staple foods--bread, boiled rice, boiled potatoes, porridge, cabbage, sugar, kidney beans, milk, and ugali (corn)--collectively accounting for 88% of total diet and energy intake, with meat comprising only about 1% of total energy intake in the diet. This high contribution from vegetable sources is very similar to the 96% previously reported(5,6) [In other Kenyan studies].

The macronutrient distribution [carbs, protein, fat] of the energy intake in the current study is also very similar to the two previous studies. The 3 studies of Kenyans showed: Carbs 71%(5), 78%(4), 77% (current study); And fat 15%, 9%, 13%; And protein 15%, 13%, 10%, respectively. [Similar to an 80-10-10 plant-based diet. High carb, high grain, low fat, low protein, 99% vegetarian diet which resulted in top record-breaking marathon runners and athletes.]

Despite the number of foods, there was No evidence of any malnourishment at the micronutrient level in these studies and the foods were generally considered to be of high nutritional quality.

The most successful marathon distance runners follow a 99% vegetarian diet.

Scientific Study Data Results: The Tarahumara were found to follow a 94% Vegan, 96% Vegetarian plant-based diet.

The Tarahumara tribe of native aboriginal indians live in Copper Canyon, Mexico, in south central America. Actual scientific analysis data revealed that the Tarahumara are eating a diet which is 94% Vegan, 96% Vegetarian, and breaking some of the greatest known human endurance records. Whereas a Marathon is a tough endurance race for anyone, the Tarahumara, using their formula for a plant-based diet, can run distances of over 200-miles, with no problem. They eat grain, and were found to be among the healthiest and fittest endurance athletes on the planet.
