How many hours to eat before working out

I sometimes feel dizzy in the middle of my work out, like I want to pass out. When should I eat or have a snack .

I usually have a little snack about 30 minutes before going to the gym. Usually some kind of carbs with a little bit of fat. Like a slice of toast with peanut butter on it.

Thank you so much, I need to remember this, especially when I am on the run

You should eat a low or very little fat low glycemic (whole grains, no-low sugar carbs) and some protein 1/2 hour to an hour before your workout (depending on how much you eat) Definitly very low fat.

you should leave at least an hour, or 2 after a large meal before you work out.

Hope this helps!
