This is what ecotrophologist Günter Wagner says:

"Very good pre-tour and pre-training meal. High and quickly available carbohydrate content with good, fast gastric emptying. Perfectly suited to a low-fat diet. High content of plant-based dietary iron, the utilisation of which is significantly improved by the vitamin C content it also contains. The dietary iron contributes to normal oxygen transport in the body, while the vitamin C also helps maintain the normal function of the immune system during and after intensive physical exertion."
