I am off to slap on a few leeches now to fix my calf for this afternoon's cross country.

HappyG(rrr) Apr 2021 9:38pm, 13 Apr 2021 38,389 posts	0 HappyG(rrr) Hi milemonster, or anyone else who has a view on sugar - has anyone got a link to evidence between sugar and inflammation, preferably specific to sport or running in particular? Veggie, non-drinker, no weight problem and medium fitness level (c. 30 miles running per week plus bits of strength and cross train), 51 yr old male. I actually have lowest level of injuries for years at mo. But always a few aches and pains. I eat a lot of sweets, biscuits, cakes etc (my only vice!) Could it cause great aches and pains or worse cause serious inflammation related injuries. By the way, the correct answer would be No! But I'm open to evidence, even if I don't like it. Thanks G
