●YouTube影片● https://user322571.psee.ly/942yha ●FB粉專影片 ● https://user322571.pse.is/942ykc 本集主題：為什麼你一直很累？停止無效養生！張語希營養師的「精準補位法」，讓當機的代謝自動重啟 訪問作者： 張語希 內容簡介： 你是否也有過這樣的時刻—— 三餐外食、生活忙碌，明明已經很努力顧健康，桌上擺著好幾罐保健食品，卻還是覺得累、睡不好、情緒不穩， 甚至開始懷疑：「是不是我哪裡做錯了？」 事實是，你不是不努力，而是補錯方向了。 ▎為什麼你「很努力」，卻「沒感覺」、「還是覺得累」？ 作者在多年門診諮詢、演講與實務經驗中，發現現代人最常見的健康困境，不是不知道要顧健康，而是： •飲食不均：熱量過剩、營養不足！問題不在吃太少，而是吃錯──高熱量但缺乏蛋白質與纖維 •作息紊亂：皮質醇與褪黑激素混亂，靠咖啡提神、靠滑手機放鬆，身體修復機制失靈 •把保健品當成救命稻草亂補一通：熬夜吃B群、大餐吃酵素，試圖用藥丸抵銷壞習慣 •看廣告、跟團購，卻不知道自己真正缺的是什麼 •吃得很少，卻血糖大起大落、情緒跟著坐雲霄飛車 •補對成分，卻補錯時間、補錯搭配，甚至補過頭 這本書，語希營養師要告訴你:「健康不是單點補充，而是整體系統的重新校正。」 ▎一本為「忙碌現代人」設計的整合營養指南 語希營養師將複雜的營養學，整理成真正做得到的日常策略，提出一個清楚好懂的核心架構—— ★ 健康三角架構 健康不是靠一個奇蹟成分，而是由三個關鍵共同撐起： •飲食(50-60%)：身體的原料來源（優質蛋白、血糖穩定） •生活作息與壓力(20-30%)：身體的控制台（睡眠節律、壓力管理） •保健食品(10-20%)：補位用的工具 地基不穩，房子裝潢再美也會垮； 三者協同，身體才有機會回到自我修復的狀態。 作者介紹：張語希 營養師 擁有13年營養師經歷 -國立政治大學 IMBA碩士 -國立台灣師範大學 營養科學系 學士 -美國密蘇里大學 聖路易校區 營養學學程 -高考營養師、腎臟專科營養師、長期照顧醫事人員

Last week I had the honor of giving a keynote speech at the IMBA Europe Summit in Boltaña, in the heart of the Pyrenees in Spain (a GORGEOUS riding area). In this episode, I share my biggest takeaways, how new research shows E-MTBs change riding behavior and keep more people riding longer, and why mountain biking is much more than just “send-it” culture. From inspiring projects in Nepal, Bhutan, and schools worldwide, to women like Manon Carpenter, Evelyn from Dutch Girls on Wheels, and many others leading the way — this summit left me hopeful and excited about a more inclusive future for MTB. Fact is: Trails connect us. Skills empower us. And inclusion sustains us. Here's the "Neuroscience of MTB Skills Practice" Video I talk about in this episode.    Here are some of the inspiring people and links I mention in this episode - but there were SO many more uplifting connections made! Dutch Girls on Wheels: https://www.instagram.com/dutchgirls_on_wheels Pinar Pinzuti: https://www.instagram.com/pinarpinzuti Manon Carpenter: https://www.instagram.com/manoncarpenter Dr. Lesley Ingram Sills - Research about E-MTB: https://mtbcos.co.uk/dr-lesley-ingram-sills  Mental Health Benefits of Mountain Biking - Research by Edinburg Napier University: https://www.napier.ac.uk/about-us/our-schools/school-of-applied-sciences/mountain-biking/mountain-biking-and-mental-health Julie Cornelius from Worldride: Changing Women's Lives Through Mountain Biking  Dr. Esther Walker at Outride - Bringing Cycling Programs to Schools Loren Rowney at IMBA - Meet the IMBA Europe Team here.  Start working on your skills for free and get my tips directly to your inbox:
