it is, yes. I find it interesting that americans ingest 61 billion dollars worth of supplements that have little to no actual scientific research behind it. Couple that with the fact that the 'traditional' american diet is one of corn syrup and processed foods, and seeing that a culture continually can turn out high end endurance athletes relying on simple natural foods, with little protein (ours is filled with steroids and hormones) and it certainly gives me inspiration to understand what I'm eating and how it impacts my racing.
