Sports nutrition is entering a new era of sex hormone-specific needs. Athletes who menstruate have specific fueling needs during and around training as it relates to hormone levels.
Today, Sara takes a deep dive on the topic of performance nutrition with Kristen Arnold, MS, RDN, CSSD.
They discuss:
- Common pitfalls of fueling
- Sorting through the diet trends like Intermittent Fasting and Paleo.
- GI issues during and after exercise and tips on how to train your stomach to absorb calories during training
- Navigating perimenopause
- How to stop fearing food and start loving ourselves and our powerful bodies
This interview is valuable for anyone who's looking for women's specific nutrition information, or information on how to love our bodies and have a better relationship with food.
