“If you eat like crap, you play like crap—that’s my motto…”Hi, I’m Frank Green, a retired, oftentimes over-opinionated, 60-year-old golfer who is

completely obsessed with the game. I’m not a PGA pro but I used to be a damn good amateur back in my heyday. Today I am a retired nutrition research scientist who has used my knowledge to dramatically improve my game, and the games of many other die-hard golfers, over the past 35 years.

In fact, tens of thousands of golfers from around the world read “Ask Frank…,” my weekly golf email newsletter full of nutrition and fitness tips for better golf. (If you didn’t enter your email to get this report—like maybe a friend sent it to you—don’t forget to sign up for a free subscription by Clicking Here.)

Moving forward, since you’re reading the words on this page, I think we’re going to become fast friends. I have the utmost respect for fellow golfers and I’m going to do everything in my power to teach you some of my favorite “sneaky nutrition tricks” to help you:

• Drive the ball further and straighter

• Improve your mental focus for consistency and pinpoint accuracy

• And create balanced energy so you don’t start too fast or fade at the turn

Now when you signed up for this report you may have thought you’d get some flimsy report that was a few pages. Nope… I promise to always OVER DELIVER and give you more than you asked for. So print out this report, or enjoy online, and it will work wonders for you.

Now that I’m retired, I spend most of my days draining putts at my local golf course here in Austin, and the rest of the time I spend researching the medical web sites online for the newest nutrition innovations to add to my ever-growing database.

Recently, I’ve taken my loves of golf and science and combined them by doing some writing for a researched-based golf nutrition company called Golf Fuel. I really respect the Golf Fuel product line, and the scientists who developed it, because of the vast amount of research backing each and every one of their products.

In fact, Golf Fuel products are so good that top professionals worldwide are using them including:

• LPGA Superstar Brittany Lincicome, winner of 5 LPGA Tour events, is currently ranked #5 on the LPGA money list and 10th in the Rolex World Golf Rankings.

• PGA Tournament Winner, Mark Hensby.

Just to name a few…

As you can see, the Golf Fuel products are powerful. We will talk more about Golf Fuel products later on after I teach you the ins and outs of how to eat for better golf.

THE #1 REASON YOU PLAY BAD GOLFThroughout the years, I’ve discovered the #1 roadblock

that keeps most golfers from longer, straighter drives and lower scores. Simply put, it’s the foods they eat.

I always shake my head when I see golfers focusing all their efforts on buying new equipment or gadgets and constantly tinkering with their swing mechanics without even CONSIDERING the food they’re feeding the very “machine” that powers their swing: the human body.

You can have the best equipment in the world, with great swing mechanics, but if you don’t feed your body the proper nutrients it needs to sustain energy, mental focus, and power … you’re going to continue to hit it crooked without any accuracy or distance control.

What’s more, bad nutrition REALLY catches up with us as we begin to age. Some of those young gun, 20-something, PGA whippersnappers can eat junk all day and get away with it; but, believe me, it catches up with you fast.

Here’s an example. My buddy Charlie is part of our foursome. He’s 55 years old, 5’10”, and about 40 pounds overweight. He suffers from high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and acid reflux. Not to mention that he’s a ball of stress. Charlie’s basically a heart attack waiting to happen.

Before we play in the mornings, Charlie usually wolfs down a few pancakes or donuts along with a big glass of orange juice. (Not good food choices for reasons I’ll explain later.)

When Charlie steps up to the first tee box he’s usually over stimulated and his nerves get the best of him. When he’s not calm his wicked slice rears its ugly head and causes Charlie’s tee shots to end up in the rough—sometimes even in the opposite fairway.

Then, at the turn, Charlie’s energy starts to fade and his driving accuracy and distance goes out the window like a baby with the bath water. Soon he loses the mental focus he needs for his short game and he completely falls apart at the seams—3- or 4-putting most of the remaining holes.

Then, like clockwork, Charlie bitches and moans about his clubs and that damn assistant pro that screwed up his stroke.

Now, even though Charlie has better equipment than everyone in our foursome, and even though he constantly spends LOTS of money tinkering with his swing mechanics, he still comes in last at nearly every round of golf we’ve played over the last five years. Why? Because, much to my dismay (and despite my constant badgering), Charlie neglects the most important part of his game: his “inside game.” I’m talking about golf nutrition.



And eating “right” for better golf can actually be very simple—if you talk to the right person who can walk you through it. That’s where I come in.

Does any part of Charlie’s story sound familiar? If so, the good news is we can fix these three problems by simply fueling your body with the correct nutrients. Not only will this help you play better golf, but you will drop belly fat and be a lot healthier, too.

With that in mind, let’s get to it with my …

10 COMMANDMENTS OF GOLF NUTRITION

Commandment #1: Balance your meals.

Combine carbohydrates, protein and healthy fats at every meal. A lot of golfers think they need to load up on carbohydrates in order to play their best golf, but the science shows that combining certain slow-absorbing carbohydrates along with protein and healthy fats stabilizes blood sugar levels so you have a steady release of energy throughout your round.

I’ve discovered that a diet containing moderate amounts of protein (around 30%), moderate carbs (around 50%), and lower amounts of healthy fats (around 20%) works best for most golfers and can be easily followed in season and out. But don’t worry about these percentages too much. There’s an easier way to keep track of what you’re eating and I’ll cover that shortly. And by the way, if you don’t quite know the difference between proteins, carbohydrates, and fats and what foods they are found in, don’t worry: I’ll be covering that too.

Commandment #2: Plan meals in advance.

In today’s fast-paced world, it’s often difficult to plan your meals ahead of time and to have those foods readily available on and off the course. However, with just a little bit of planning you can see a remarkable difference in your game. You can also see a complete transformation in your power, focus, and energy levels. Take time to prepare your meals and snacks in advance and take them with you on the go.

Commandment #3: No big meals 2 hours before tee time.

When you have large amounts of food in your stomach, it diverts blood away from your brain and muscles. This will negatively affect your mental concentration and physical performance. I get up early and eat my last meal 2 hours before each round, and then if I get hungry, I have a small snack that I bring with me.



Commandment #4: Reduce sugar intake.

When it comes to bad golf, sugar is public enemy number one. On average, my calculations show that the typical American eats 140 pounds of sugar per year–about 173 grams per day. That’s one giant bag of sugar. (Heck, at 140 pounds, you can give it a bag of clubs and add it to your foursome.)

When you eat sugar, a surge of a storage hormone called insulin is released into your digestive tract. Insulin grabs hold of this sugar and stores it as energy–and then the excess is stuffed into your fat cells in all of those dreaded trouble spots, like your belly. As a result, your blood sugar levels drop, causing a lack of concentration with crashing energy levels and even hunger and cravings. Then the vicious cycle repeats.

And if that’s not enough, recent studies have shown that sugar creates inflammation in your body that is the cause of most disease. It also lowers your immune system and accelerates aging and wrinkles. Not to mention that studies now say that sugar is as addictive as nicotine and cocaine. No wonder we can’t get enough.

This is why, based on current research, I recommend that golfers limit their sugar intake to a max of 60 grams a day. And if you have a gut to lose, drop your sugar to 30 grams or less and watch it disappear.

Commandment #5: Eat more fiber.

Did you know that fiber (along with fats and proteins) fights belly fat by slowing down the body’s absorption of sugar, and it helps to cleanse the belly bulge (waste) that comes from an overloaded digestive system? Yep, it’s true.

Fifty percent of Americans aren’t getting enough fiber from their daily diet. After all, the American Heart Association recommends 25 to 30 grams of fiber per day to reduce the risk of heart disease. However, most folks are getting only half of that, which is causing digestive problems and increasing their risk of heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.

Why is fiber so important for golfers? Fiber-rich foods make you feel fuller for longer, and it causes a slow release of the carbohydrates you eat so you don’t get a sudden rise and fall in energy and focus levels. Plus, eating enough fiber (combined with eight to ten glasses of water a day) keeps your digestive system running smoothly and can clean out pounds of “internal waste” that makes your belly bulge. Forget all of those unhealthy laxatives and cleansing detox pills you see advertised: all you really need is an adequate amount of fiber and water.



Here is the fiber content for some of my favorite high-fiber foods. I eat one or more of these foods every day:

• Barley has 12 grams per ½ cup

• Beans like black beans, navy beans, refried, and lima beans all have 6 or more grams per ½ cup

• Bran cereal has 13 grams per ½ cup

• Peas have more than 9 grams per ½ cup

• Corn on the cob has 5 grams per ear

• Strawberries have 4 grams per cup, raspberries have more than 5 grams, and blackberries have more than 7 grams

• Medium-size potatoes with the skin have 5 grams

• Broccoli has 7 grams per ¾ cooked cup

• Oatmeal has 7 grams per ¾ cup

• Apples have 4 grams of fiber in the form of pectin

• Dried fruits like figs and pears have more than 10 grams per ½ cup

Commandment #6: Eat tasty foods every three hours.

A common mistake golfers make is not eating frequently enough, like having only 2 or 3 meals a day. Believe me, this is the absolute worst approach. Your body doesn’t efficiently use large amounts of food at once. What’s more, after around 3 hours without food, your energy and focus will start to drop like a piano off the Empire State Building—taking your power and accuracy with it.

Instead, eat a small, balanced mini-meal every 3 hours and watch as strokes fall from your game (and belly fat from your gut). That’s about 5 or 6 mini-meals every day (snacks count as mini-meals, too). I like to eat my meals at 7 a.m., 10 a.m., 1 p.m., 4 p.m., and 7 p.m. Remember, your body needs a constant supply of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, proteins, carbs, and healthy fats to fuel your swing, so don’t go longer than 3 hours without re-fueling.

Commandment #7: Count portions, not calories.

Have you ever been on a nutrition program that required you to count every calorie of fat, carb, or protein you ate? I have. And it works only if you have a solid grasp on nutrition and have the time and discipline to weigh and keep track of your food selections all day long. All of this takes a lot of work and can be very confusing.

That’s why I recommend counting portions instead of calories. What are portions? A portion of carbohydrates is an amount equal to the size of your clenched fist, while a serving of protein would fit in the palm of your hand with a thickness equal to that of a deck of playing cards. So a portion is going to vary in size depending on the size of your hand. (Smaller people don’t need as many calories and their portion sizes will be naturally less using this method.)



Just have a portion of protein, a portion of energy carbs and a portion of color carbs at each meal and you’re set. (Food recommendations coming.) This isn’t always convenient for snacking during a round, so I’ll give you some pointers for that in a bit, too.

Commandment #8: Drink lots of water.

Another very important key to hitting longer, straighter drives and dialing in those short precise shots with your wedges is remembering to drink lots of water.

How much? Before each of your five mini-meals during the day, drink 12 ounces of pure, fresh water—that’s the same amount of fluid found in the average soft drink can. Then drink another 12 ounces of water with your meal. Because you should be eating five mini-meals each day, that’s a minimum of 10 glasses of water each and every day.

Another way to make sure you’re getting enough water is to divide your body weight in pounds by 2. This will give you the number of ounces of water to drink each day. I weigh 180 pounds so that’s 90 ounces of water each day for me. And I drink even more when it’s hot out.

Did you know that being dehydrated by as little as 1 or 2 percent of your body weight can impair both mental and physical functions? That includes hand-eye coordination, balance, driving power, mental focus—everything. Fatigue and weakness will occur if you don’t drink enough water. I suggest carrying water with you while you work, play, and on the greens. Try to get in the habit of sipping it throughout the day.

The key is to drink water even when you’re not thirsty, because by the time you feel thirsty, you’re already too low. So put away those diet soft drinks and sugar-filled fruit juices. Instead, replenish your body with lots of pure water.

Commandment #9: Eat your fat.

It may be hard to believe that eating fat can help your golf swing, but it will in a BIG way. You see, healthy fats play a role in virtually every bodily function, including hormone production (for those guys out there concerned about testosterone levels) and inflammation regulation. That’s a key word, “inflammation.” Not only are many diseases (some cancers, heart disease, etc.) linked back to inflammation within the tissues of the body, but the repetitive nature of the golf swing really wears and tears on the joints in the knees, hips, shoulders, wrists and back.

Healthy fats reduce inflammation, which helps to soothe and strengthen your aching joints. We’ll cover the specifics on healthy fats in a minute.



Commandment #10: Only use scientifically backed vitamins and supplements.

Some people who haven’t kept up with nutrition science may say that vitamins just create “expensive urine.” But this couldn’t be further from the truth.

In fact, the mainstream golf world is FINALLY realizing something that the stars in the PGA, NBA, NFL and MLB have known for years: tens of thousands of scientific studies show that certain natural nutrients can improve sport performance including mental focus, energy levels and body power … not to mention overall health.

You see, your body requires dozens upon dozens of nutrients—vitamins, minerals, trace elements, essential amino acids, and essential fats—to function optimally and maintain good health. And the cold, hard fact is that most of us are not getting what we need for our short- and long-term health—not by a very long shot.

Most clients I work with are deficient in several key vitamins and minerals. Heck, I recently got some blood work done because I wasn’t feeling my usual energetic self, and even though I eat extremely healthily I was still deficient in 3 different vitamins and minerals. I’m now fixing this deficiency with certain vitamins and feeling great again.

Anyway, here’s why we suffer from nutrient deficiencies:

* We eat overly processed foods and fast foods that have been stripped of their original nutrient content.

* We eat foods grown in nutrient-depleted soils. Therefore, the vegetables, grains, and fruits grown in these fields aren’t as healthful as they once were.

* We lead stressful lifestyles that increase our bodies’ demand for certain nutrients.

With all this in mind, it’s not hard to understand why nutritional deficiencies are so widespread. Think about this: statistics show that one out of every eight of us will get cancer. One out of five will develop heart disease. And another one out of four will get diabetes. It could happen to you or me next year, next month, or even tomorrow.

But, more and more, research shows that we have the power to prevent or promote these terrible and debilitating diseases simply by what we put into our bodies. That’s why it’s important to fuel your body with the foods and scientifically-backed supplements that will improve your health.

Furthermore, under the headline “Vitamin Supplements for Better Golf,” I’ll be revealing new science on certain nutrients that can actually improve golf performance by reducing stress, increasing mental focus, increasing body power and supporting your eyesight.



So there you have it, my 10 Commandments for Golf Nutrition. Follow these guidelines and your scores will dramatically decrease while your health and vitality skyrocket. Now it’s time to dive into a little Nutrition 101 so you can put the above information to work.

THE SECRET POWER OF PROTEINProteins are primarily used as building blocks for our

bodies and brains. They are found in our muscles, hair, skin, nails, hormones, and blood cells. And protein is extremely important both to our overall immunity and health.

Proteins are most abundant in animal products—lean meats (like chicken, turkey, beef, etc), eggs, and low-fat cottage cheese are great protein sources. Protein is also found, to a lesser degree, in beans, nuts, and various grains for you vegetarians out there.

Protein is also an extremely critical, but often overlooked, nutrient that plays a big part in fueling your mental focus and strength for golf. Let me explain. Your body breaks down protein into smaller particles called amino acids. Your body then uses these amino acids as building blocks to create brain chemicals called neurotransmitters. Now, these neurotransmitters control every aspect of your brain and body.

You see, when your brain gives the signal for your body to swing a golf club, these powerful neurotransmitters move like electricity between your brain cells (called neurons), and from your brain down your spinal cord and out through tens of thousands of nerves to every muscle in your body.

If these neurotransmitters are at full strength, then your power, reaction time, coordination, and mental focus will be “in the zone,” and you will have the best chance to hit your best shot.

But if you have low “brain fuel,” your neurotransmitters will become weak, your attention will wander, your swing will be inconsistent, you will mishit the ball, your distance will be wimpy, your irons and wedge play will be short or long, and you will be much more likely to 3- or 4-putt … or worse.

(By the way, this is why I supplement my diet with Golf Fuel Focus Vitamins. This scientifically-backed product contains precise amounts of amino acids—protein building blocks—to help boost mental focus. It also has other “brain nutrients” to help golfers relax and overcome stress. Sure, you can get brain nutrients from food, but you would need to eat 8 pounds of sardines in order to get the amount of DMAE in one serving of

Golf Fuel—and it has six more nutrients. These Golf Fuel Vitamins really make a difference in my game. You can learn more about them by Clicking Here.)

Protein also blunts the effects of carbohydrates so they are released into your blood stream slowly, so you don’t gain as much fat and your energy levels are consistent.

Here is a chart that contains some of my favorite protein-rich foods:




THE CARB CONNECTION Moving on, our bodies primarily use carbohydrates as an energy source. Carbs are extremely

important for fueling our game. Consider these facts. If you walk the course:

• An average round lasts for 227 minutes.

• Average distance covered is 9842.51 yards.

• Most of the playing time involves moderate exercise activity. This uses between 50 and 74 % of maximal heart rate reserve.

• Average weight lost during a round is 2.5 pounds.

• Average calories burned during a round are between 2000 and 2500 calories.

Carbohydrates come from plants (or trees) that store starch, sugar, and fiber in grains, fruits, and vegetables.

Carbohydrates often get a bad rap, which is a shame because carbs are your body’s preferred source of fuel. Some cells, like your brain and blood cells, for example, are very limited in the types of energy they can use, with a strong preference for carbohydrates. If you’ve ever been on a no-carb diet (or just been overly hungry) and experienced that lightheaded, queasy, hit-the-wall feeling, you know what I’m talking about.

3 Reasons Why Carbohydrates Are Best for Your Brain

1. Carbs can improve your mental focus and concentration, and keep you alert and adept at analyzing and planning strategies for a better game.

2. Carbs are important sources of fuel for your brain. Any deficiency of carbs can hamper production of an important neurotransmitter called acetylcholine. This neurotransmitter is crucial in coordinating the brain and your muscles. It also controls the heart rate by influencing the muscles of the heart.

3. Carbs can influence the memory favorably, and this beneficial effect can be seen within a short span of 60 minutes.

The key is to eat the right carbohydrates. Yes, as I’m sure you’re aware, there are right and wrong carbs. Most simple (processed carbs) are the wrong carbs—in fact, they are public enemy #1 for golf performance.

They tend to be highly processed and stripped of their nutrients. Examples of foods that contain simple carbohydrates include soft drinks, most sports drinks, most energy drinks, candy bars, ice cream, donuts, cereals, and processed “white foods” like breads, pastas, and rice.



Even though they may be tempting, these foods spike your blood sugar then send it crashing. This zaps your energy and mental powers. Limit your intake of these types of high-sugar foods to your post-round meal (more on that later).

“Good” carbohydrates, on the other hand, have all the right stuff. These foods are the ones that provide your body with the energy it needs in a steady fashion (none of this blood sugar roller-coaster business), while also providing much-needed fiber and important vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients to your body.

I’m talking about fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains.

Now let’s get to the brass tacks.

“Good carbs” are further broken down into what I like to call ENERGY CARBS and COLOR CARBS. Energy carbs are nutrient-dense turbo chargers. Whole grains and starchy foods are great examples of energy carbs. If you’re looking for long-term energy and vitality, these little gems are your best bet. Here are some of my favorites:

Color carbs contain rich sources of fiber, but their real claim to fame is that they provide phytonutrients, important chemicals found in plants that support a variety of health functions. A specific family of phytonutrients called anthocyanins is responsible for compounds that give fruits and veggies their vibrant color.

Here’s the real kicker, though—anthocyanins also pack a powerful antioxidant punch. Different color pigments carry different health benefits. For example, lutein, an important nutrient for eye health, is found in yellow-green vegetables such as corn and peas.

Lycopene, found in tomatoes, is not only responsible for their red color but also supports prostate health.



Orange carotenoids found in carrots, pumpkins, and apricots have been found to enhance immune system function. Sulphorapane gives broccoli and brussels sprouts their green color, and it also happens to be a potent weapon against cancer. And reddish purple anthocyanins, found in blueberries, blackberries, and plums, pump up circulation and protect the brain.

Here are some of my favorite color carbs:



How much of each type of carb should you eat? I recommend you have a fist-sized portion of energy carbs and a fist-sized portion of color carbs with three mini-meals per day. The other two mini-meals are basically snacks. This will cover your bases.

FATTY FOODS FOR FANTASTIC GOLFWe already talked about the importance of fats to your joint health

earlier. Now let’s dive into the details.

Quality sources of good fats include oils such as flax, olive, and coconut. Good fats are also found in seafood sources such as salmon and tuna, as well as in avocados and nuts like walnuts, almonds, pistachios and seeds like pumpkin and sunflower. (I always take a bag of “Frank’s Trail Mix” out on the links with me for snacking. This mix includes the aforementioned nuts and seeds as well as some dried fruit.)

To make sure you’re getting enough good fats in your diet, I suggest adding two tablespoons of recommended oils to prepared foods each day, or having a serving of wild salmon or tuna (which also count as protein sources, of course), three times a week.

Alternatively, you may want to try ¼ cup of walnuts or a handful of pistachios each day, or a tablespoon of organic peanut or almond butter, or a high-quality essential fat oil like Udo’s Choice Oil Blend or Barlean’s oil—try the Omega Swirl flavors. You can get these oils at most natural grocery stores.

By the way, most processed vegetable oils are TERRIBLE for you and actually cause inflammation in the body. Stay away from canola oils and regular ol’ vegetable oils that come in clear containers. Natural light breaks down the oils and all the healthy fats are “killed off” during processing.

Now that we’ve covered Nutrition 101 for golfers, let’s talk about foods that you should be eating before, during, and after play.

FOODS TO EAT BEFORE GOLFHow soon before a round is “before golf,” you ask? I

recommend eating your last meal at least two hours before you tee off. Your “before golf” meal needs to be filling and it must provide the fuel you will need to play great golf all day. With this in mind, it should consist of a portion of protein (size of your palm, thickness of a deck of cards) with a portion of both an energy and color carb.

Here are some practical examples of meals that you can eat 2 to 3 hours before tee-off:



* Omelet made with veggies, a little cheese and a meat like ham (this is your protein portion). A portion of oatmeal with raisins, cinnamon, walnuts and sweetened with stevia or Truvia® sweetener. Small side of fruit (color carb). 12 oz water.

* Whole wheat French Toast (energy carb) with low-sugar syrup or jam, and a side of scrambled eggs. Small side of fruit (color carb). 12 oz water.

* Frank’s Egg Sandwich made with a whole grain English muffin (energy carb), one egg, a slice of cheese and ham (egg, cheese, ham = protein portion). Small side of fruit (color carb). 12 oz water.

* For a later tee-time: Whole wheat spaghetti (energy carb) combined with tomato and meat sauce (protein) and a dinner salad and veggies with olive oil dressing (color carb). 12 oz water.

* Grilled chicken or fish sandwich (meat = protein and bread = energy carb) with a side of veggies (color carb). 12 oz water.

* Running late: low-sugar, high-protein yogurt (like Greek yogurt) with some added walnuts. Or, Frank’s Trail Mix (talked about this previously).

Does this sound like a lot of food? It’s not. Remember, we are talking about small portions, not the supersized portions you get at restaurants.

At the same time I eat my pre-round meal I also take a serving of Golf Fuel Focus Vitamins. These vitamins are scientifically-backed to decrease stress and improve mental focus, two things I desperately need before I tee off because of my nerves. These vitamins really make a difference in my game.

5 Foods to Avoid Before Golf

• Avoid drinking coffee or alcohol, as they will cause dehydration due to their diuretic effects.

• Avoid eating candy or sweets, as they contain processed sugars that will cause your energy levels to crash.

• Avoid most sports and energy drinks. They are loaded with energy-draining sugar, so steer clear.

• Avoid eating fried and fatty foods, like pizza or fast food. These are akin to pouring grease into your car’s gasoline tank—not good for performance.

• Avoid turkey, as it contains the amino acid tryptophan, which can make you drowsy.






FOODS TO EAT DURING GOLFDuring a round, your body is rapidly using stored energy to fuel your swing. This rapid

depletion of energy stores can lead to fatigue and mental exhaustion. Losing body water through perspiration magnifies this problem.

With this in mind, the foods you eat during golf should focus on giving you sustained energy for consistent power and concentration. Of course, since you’re out on the course, it would be difficult to bring an entire meal with you consisting of complete portion sizes of proteins and carbs, so I recommend convenient snack items that contain a good mix of carbs and protein.

Here are some examples of foods that you should eat during a round:

• Frank’s Trail Mix: make it yourself using walnuts, almonds, cashews, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, and dried fruits such as apricots, apples, and raisins.

• Half of a roast beef or ham sandwich on wheat.

• Apple slices with peanut or almond butter.

• Whole wheat crackers with cheese slices.

• Nutrition bars like 1st and 10th Tee golf bars (order from this link and save big—Click Here.

• String cheese along with a piece of fruit.

• A small cup of pre-packaged natural applesauce (no added sugar) along with almonds.

Keep drinking lots of water to replenish what you’re sweating out. I recommend 6 ounces every two holes at the minimum.

3 Foods to Avoid During Golf

• Any high-sugar foods like candy or candy bars.

• Alcohol.

• I advise against drinking sports drinks that are loaded with sugar—they will cause your concentration and energy to crash.

• Avoid turkey as it contains the amino acid tryptophan which can make you drowsy.

My favorite sports drink to enjoy during a round is, without question, Golf Fuel Focus Drinks. These drinks are sugar-free and come in handy 2 oz shots (shots are little beverages you drink all at once, like a shot of whiskey for you John Daly fans out there). What’s convenient is they don’t need refrigeration. Each shot contain scientifically-backed neuro-nutrients to calm golfers’ nerves and improve mental focus. They are much more scientifically advanced than those run-of-the-mill sports drinks you see advertised all over.

FOODS TO EAT WITHIN 60 MINUTES AFTER GOLFOnce they’re done golfing for the day, most people give little thought to nutrition. This is a BIG

mistake! Your post-golf meal is just as important as your pre-round meal. Here’s why:

• A round of golf burns between 2,000 and 2,500 calories if you’re walking, and it’s vitally important to replenish the carbohydrate stores (called glycogen) in your body, so that the next time you play you will have the energy reserves on tap.

• After a round of golf, your body will also be dehydrated. That is the time to replenish your water levels and electrolytes.

• Post-exercise is the prime time to ingest and replace crucial vitamins and minerals, especially B Vitamins, which you used up during play. The multivitamin and minerals I recommend for golfers can be found RIGHT HERE. It also has added nutrients to support a healthy metabolism and body weight.

• There’s no denying that golf takes a great deal of mental power. That’s why you need amino acids to help restore brain fuel. Remember, amino acids provide the building blocks needed to create “brain fuel” called neurotransmitters. This is why I take a serving of Golf Fuel Focus Vitamins after each round. They contain the amino acids and neuro-nutrients I need to refuel my tired brain and body.

The Sugar Loophole

Now, I keep saying that fast-absorbing sugar is bad for golfers, but there is a specific time when studies show it can actually be good. It’s right after exercise—or in the case of golfers, right after a round.

So if you want to gulp down a sports drink or fruit juice, or maybe indulge with a dessert or some candy, the most favorable time is within 60 minutes after your round.

Just be sure to include some protein with your meal or snack. Here are some of my favorite post-round snacks I eat right after play. Notice they are all easily digestible, so they absorb quickly:

• A chocolate or vanilla protein shake made with milk and blended with a banana or berries. (Occasionally I’ll skip the fruit and add a ½ cup of ice cream.) You can get a one-time 15% discount off of the exact same protein I use. Use coupon code GF15 and click RIGHT HERE.

• Yogurt (I recommend Greek yogurt because it has twice the protein).

• A bowl of cereal with milk.

• A chocolate peanut butter nutrition bar. Here’s the one I eat post-round, only because

it has higher sugar and the chocolate can melt if eaten out on the course—it’s RIGHT HERE.

• Nutrition bars like 1st and 10th Tee golf bars (order from this link and save big—CLICK HERE)

Foods to Avoid Immediately After Golf

• High fat or fiber foods that slow digestion.

• Fried and fatty foods (like pizza or fast food), which are akin to pouring grease into your car’s gasoline tank—not good for refueling and repair.

The truth is, if you don’t replenish your body after golf, you’re going to be in a world of hurt the next time you go to play. You’ll find your play inconsistent and you won’t have the mental and physical fuel to play at your peak level.

Many people believe poor golf scores are the result of poor sleep, bad equipment, or some flaw in their swing mechanics. But I find that, more often than not, it’s the golfers’ post-game nutrition that is the best predictor of their consistency.

Later in the evening, after a post-round snack, I recommend eating the same way I outlined in the special report: a portion of protein, a portion of an energy carb, and a portion of a color carb at each meal.

VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS FOR BETTER GOLFI get a lot of questions from golfers asking me about the types of vitamins and supplements

that professional golfers take to improve their performance. And the truth is that the competition in the professional ranks is so fierce that these guys (and gals) will go after every natural advantage they can get. This includes taking natural vitamins, minerals, amino acids, herbs and “functional foods” that, science shows, can help boost their mental focus, hand-eye coordination, power, energy, and overall health.

But I have a secret: not only are top PGA Tour Professionals using vitamins and nutrients to “go low,” but so are everyday average golfers from around the world. Young guns are using supplements to hit longer and increase mental focus, while seniors are using them to recapture their best swing from the past.

The most interesting category of supplements that golfers are using is called “neuro-nutrients.” Studies show these specialized vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and herbs can significantly increase brain function to boost mental focus, hand-eye coordination, and balance for better accuracy, and certain amino acids may even boost body-power for longer drives.

What’s more, other neuro-nutrients have been shown in scientific studies to actually decrease stress and anxiety, something almost all of us could use to improve our short game and avoid mishits.

The best neuro-nutrient product I know of is Golf Fuel Focus Vitamin because it contains my top 7 “brain nutrients.” If you’re going to use only one supplement—this is it. You can see the

7 Odd Nutrients For Better Golf Revealed < ===== Discover Them Here

The Golf Fuel Focus Vitamin is definitely my top suggestion for those of you looking for more mental focus. But don’t forget about the Golf Fuel Focus Drink, which is the companion product to the Golf Fuel Brain Vitamin I mentioned above.

You take the Golf Fuel Brain Vitamin every day like a multivitamin, and then you drink this special Golf Fuel Focus Drink during your round. It comes in a handy 2-oz container that does not need refrigeration, and it tastes great—like grape juice or fruit juice. I really enjoy this product and never play a round without it.

Just listen to what these Top Touring Professionals are saying about Golf Fuel products:

“When I want to go low, I need focus and Golf Fuel vitamins and drinks give me that edge! I use them every day.”--Brittany Lincicome 5-time LPGA Tour Winner (currently ranked 10th in the world)

Well, after hearing this, Brittany became the newest member of team golf fuel … and wouldn’t you know it, just two weeks after starting Golf Fuel products she goes out and wins the LPGA CN Canadian Women’s Open by ONE STROKE to capture her second victory of the year and the fifth of her career (she went 13 under par for the four day event).

In fact, she sank a par putt on the 18th hole in driving rain to win by one stroke ... Tell me that doesn’t take amazing mental focus and nerves of steel ...

Since joining the tour in 2005, Brittany had never won more than one title in a season, but with this win (to go along with her win at the Shoprite LPGA Classic last June), she’s really taking it to a new level.

Coincidence or is it Golf Fuel?

Still skeptical? Here’s What PGA Tour Winner Mark Hensby Had To Say About Using Golf Fuel Focus Vitamins in His Attempt at a Major Comeback This Year:

“I Recently Started Taking Golf Fuel Vitamins Before and After Every Round I Play… it Gives Me The Focus and Energy I Need To Compete At The Highest Level... I am Recommending it to All My Friends On Tour.” —Mark Hensby.

As you can see … top touring professionals have been using Golf Fuel … now it’s your turn!

My Top 5 Additional Supplements for Golfers

After you’ve reloaded your brain with neuro-nutrients, these are my next choices for top supplements:

1. Protein powder or nutrition shake. In today’s busy world, it’s almost impossible to get a high-quality source of protein on the run. After all, most food sources that are high in protein include meats which, naturally, have to be cooked. That’s why I prefer using protein powders or nutrition shakes that are chock-full of high quality protein to help replenish my “brain fuel” and to help build lean muscle mass, which also increases my metabolism.

My favorite protein powder on the market right now is available at a 15% discount for you. Simply visit the link below and enter coupon code GF15 to claim your savings. By the way, I really enjoy these protein powders because they contain no artificial sweeteners, they taste great, and they have the right nutrition profile for golfers even though they’re advertised more for weight loss. Don’t worry about that.

2. Fish oils. Leading natural health experts recommend that everyone should be taking fish oil. The main reason is the Omega-3 essential fats in fish oil reduce inflammation in the body. This can positively influence heart health and reduce joint pain. What’s more, new research shows that there is a new type of fish oil that has proven to be 47 times more effective than regular fish oil. You can use coupon code GF15 to get a 15% discount on it.

4. “Mojo Enhancer.” For those of us senior guys out there, it’s no secret that our testosterone levels start to naturally decline with age. This affects the amount of muscle we have, our sex drive, our energy levels, and our overall strength. I’ve been using a product called “K20” over the last month and it has really had a remarkable effect on my overall “mojo.” You can read all about “K20” at the following link. Be sure to use savings code GF15 for a 15% discount.

You don’t want to mask the pain you feel: you want to heal it once and for all, and that’s what Urgent Joint Support will help you do.
