The Lab Report Podcast hosts Patti and Michael interview Ian Craig about integrative sports nutrition on their health-focussed popular show.
Description
In the world of athletic performance, there are plenty of health experts. But none like Ian Craig, who takes a holistic and very personalised approach. With his joint academic backgrounds in exercise physiology and nutritional therapy, and a long successful career as a middle-distance runner and coach, he’s been developing the concept of integrative sports nutrition for the past 20 years.
On our podcast we speak with Ian Craig who lays out the case for personalised and holistic care when it comes to optimising athletic performance.
