IN THE ABSENCE OF AN ABUNDANT FREE ELECTRON POOL YOUR ABILITY TO PERFORM AND RECOVER WILL BE SUBSTANTIALLY LIMITED, REGARDLESS OF WHAT OTHER NUTRIENTS ARE PRESENT!!!!!!!!!!!

 The bottom line here is that the free electron associated with the H- complex is necessary as a raw material for the mitochondria to produce energy. The hydrogen to which it is attached is utilized to combust available oxygen to allow us to express the energy, which is produced. Therefore, regardless of the amount of cardio you perform, or the amount of protein, fats, carbohydrates, or any other nutrient you take to enhance your performance you will never experience your full potential in the absence of a rich free electron pool of H- in the body.
For the athlete this translates into two important functions, which will determine their ultimate ability to excel in a chosen sport; PERFORMANCE and RECOVERY. ~ By Dr. Richard A. DiCenso
