Was referring to Paleo, not sure what Neo Carbs is? Atkins?

Anyways yeah I used to be far more interested in diet/nutrition than I am now though I've still retained a lot of it, and while I can respect the Paleo diet I don't see how it translates to athletes very much. I guess adding sweet potatoes and legumes adds more into the diet. But when I am training and racing on the bike by diet becomes very grain centered though I try to keep it whole grain pasta and sprouted wheat bread mainly (on top of carbs from other sources like yogurt, fruits, legumes and honey). I ate a strict gluten-free diet for awhile but didn't notice that much of a difference when I did, still stuck with a lot of non gluten grains like rice at the time though. Anyways, while pasta and bread are technically refined, they obviously aren't as bad on the body as say Doritoes and microwave dinners, unless you take to heart what the avid Paleo writers have to say. I agree with the whole food eating sentiment although it isn't always easy to do, just not the idea that grains are bad when they're whole and balanced by protein-dominant stuff.
