In the world of conventional sports nutrition, we are bombarded with information on macronutrient (carbohydrates, protein and fats) quantity, timing and ratios, yet the subject of food quality often gets neglected.
In this one-hour webinar, Rachel will share a different perspective; sports nutrition viewed through a lens where food quality comes first. She will guide you through five key reasons why food quality is crucially important for athletes, including for energy production, gut health, detoxification, stress and positive adaptation to exercise. In addition, Rachel will explain why this attention to dietary detail is crucial not only for sports performance but to enhance the health and longevity benefits we get from exercise too. You will leave this webinar not only with an understanding of why food quality matters for athletes but also with practical tips, considerations and key takeaways that will help you put this advice into practice in the real world.
