Congratulations to the Australian Cricket Team becoming the Champion One-Day Team in the World in 2015 and now backing it up with victory over the West Indies in the TriNations tournament in the West Indies to remain the top one-day team in the world.

They did it with a large number of the team following the great advise of Dr. Peter Brukner who is a “Primed” Lower Carb Higher Healthy Fat (LCHF) advocate for optimal sporting performance. Also proving to be optimal for life in general. Featured image and image below from www.cricket.com.au website here.

This is but the tip of the iceberg with many more individuals and teams already adopting, or going, Primed (including some major soccer teams).  Super cool pro-basketball players are Primed. Examples include Sean Anthony, Lebron, Kobe and Al Thornton.

Cheap processed carbs (bread, pasta and noodles) can be extremely harmful for your body by increasing inflammation among other problems but complex carbohydrates are an excellent source of nutrition and fiber.
