Q:
Is pasta the best food for carbo-loading before a marathon?

It can be, but go one better with wholewheat pasta. They have more fibre and take longer to digest, allowing them to provide a steady supply of energy for your body. Alternatively, a peanut butter sandwich with low-fat cheese, lentils, oats and unpolished rice can be good choices, too. Before the race, eat a banana or low-fat yoghurt.

I frequently get the hiccups. How do I stop them?
