Because I've suffered the symptoms. Feel free to read up about it.

It's more conveinent, and the glycogen gets stored quicker when it's from simple sugars. Protein helps boost glycogen storage. Solid food with the same characteristics would work as well, just less conveinent. Again, something you can research on your own, and I don't mean in Hammer literature. Hammer prints some crazy stuff, but that doesn't mean that everything they print is wrong.
