In Episode 123 of The Eat for Endurance Podcast, I'm joined by sports dietitian and nutrition communications specialist, Marie Spano, MS, RD, CSCS, CSSD. Marie is the Sports RD for the Washington Nationals and Atlanta Hawks, and she has previously worked with powerhouse teams including the Atlanta Braves (World Series champions in 2021), Chicago Cubs, and more. I've admired Marie's work and have been trying to get her on the show for many years, so I'm extra excited to finally share this conversation with you.In this episode, we're diving deep into the food matrix, including what it is, why it matters, and how it impacts nutrient absorption. As Marie explains, “Food is so much more than the sum of its nutrient parts.” We break down how nutrients interact within foods, how processing or cooking can change them, and what this means for fueling, recovery, and performance.Marie and I discuss:What the food matrix is and why it's so important for athletesHow the food matrix impacts nutrient absorption, hunger/satiety, gut health, and moreReal-world examples of how protein, carbs, and fat behave differently depending on food formThe role of fiber, antioxidants, and other plant compounds in long-term health and performanceWhy processed foods (like sports drinks, juice, or protein powders) can be the best choice for athletes in certain situations

Let's be real, as humans, we all get the occasional upset tummy (and this is perfectly normal). Our digestive system is a complex arena of microbiota, digestion, absorption, and processing. However, some people have more sensitive guts and this can lead to symptoms that impact quality of life and simply annoy the crap out of you (literally and figuratively here).One such condition that I have increasingly been seeing over the last few years, is IBS (Or Irritable Bowel Syndrome). I have worked with and helped many clients navigate this arena and regain “gut stability” and get rid of “funny tummy”.So what should one look out for?

You'll walk away with practical, evidence-based strategies to stay fueled, hydrated, and energized wherever life takes you.Key Takeaways:Why travel nutrition matters (and the most common fueling mistakes)How different types of travel impact your nutrition needsTips for commuting around town, work travel, vacations, plane vs road trips, and traveling for a raceHow to stay proactive and create a flexible but individualized planPacking the right sports nutrition and gear to stay active while you're awayHow to prep before and after a trip so you're not scrambling for food

Not all sports dietitians are created equal—especially when it comes to working with young, developing gymnasts. In this episode, I'm breaking down why your gymnast needs a pediatric/adolescent sports dietitian, not just any sports RD who's used to fueling adult athletes. The nutritional needs of gymnasts are not the same as grown adults like college or professional athletes. Your gymnast is still growing, developing, and navigating puberty—all while training like an elite athlete. That's a unique combination that deserves a specialized approach.As a parent, you want to work with someone who not only understands fueling for performance, but also knows how to support long-term health, hormonal development, injury prevention, and medical nuances like growth delays, allergies, or GI issues—all of which are way more common in this sport than most people realize. That's what sets a pediatric/adolescent sports dietitian apart.We're doing all the sports nutrition things—helping with fueling before, during, and after practice and maximizing recovery. But there's so much more to layer onto that. We're also doing what's called medical nutrition therapy, making sure these gymnasts are growing and developing on time. In this episode you'll learn about: Why young gymnasts aren't just “small adults” and can't be treated as such nutritionally even if they're athletesThe difference between a general sports dietitian and a pediatric/adolescent sports dietitian and all the training requiredWhy nutrition for gymnasts must be individualized and age-appropriate and can't be generalized  Links & Resources    The Balanced Gymnast® Program for level 5-10 female gymnasts Episode 129: Why gymnast growth charts are so important to success in the sportEpisode 112: Is your “tiny gymnast” actually underfueled, or growing normally for them?Connect with Christina on Instagram @the.gymnast.nutritionist or christinaandersonrdn.com

In this episode of Mind Your Fitness, we are joined by Aaron Flores, a registered dietitian and host of the podcast Men Unscripted, for a compelling conversation on the intersections of eating disorders, diet culture, and the male experience. Aaron shares his journey as a dietitian healing his own relationship with food/body and how unlearning traditional nutrition training helped him adopt a weight-inclusive, intuitive eating approach to support other men. He joins us to unpack how modern masculinity, performance culture, and diet trends intersect in harmful ways. From teen boys chasing gym gains to tech bros obsessed with fasting and supplements, this episode challenges how we define "health" for men. The conversation also dives into under-discussed topics like low testosterone from restrictive eating, how male libido can signal nutritional imbalance, and the gaps in identifying and supporting those men struggling with body image and/or disordered eating concerns. A must-listen for clinicians, parents, and anyone supporting men on their wellness journey. Aaron Flores is Los Angeles-based registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN), Certified Body Trust® Provider, and one of the few men very active in the space of intuitive eating. Aaron is a true trailblazer with his podcast Men Unscripted, where he holds conversations that give insight into the struggles that men experience when it comes to their body, food, and fitness. He has been featured in the New York Times, Huffington Post, Buzzfeed, and on the 10% Happier Podcast.  

Let's be honest – choking down another gel at hour three on a long ride isn't anyone's idea of fun. If you’re done with flavour fatigue, you’ve been struggling with nasty GI issues or you’ve crawled home like a zombie after bonking mid-ride, this episode is for you. While gels and sports nutrition products have their place, they're not the only answer to fuelling your long rides. Fuelling doesn’t have to be expensive or gut-destroying. There are loads of real food options that taste amazing and keep your energy up from start to finish. Today I’m sharing five of my go-to real food ideas for long ride fuelling. Why Real Food Matters When it comes to sessions longer than two or three hours, proper fuelling isn't optional—it’s essential. Without effective fuel, you're risking poor performance and compromising recovery and immunity. Consistently under-fuelling can lead to fatigue, poorer training adaptations, and even hormonal issues. Let's avoid that by being strategic about our nutrition. Common Mistakes in Long Ride Fuelling Overreliance on Sports Nutrition Products: A lot of athletes exclusively depend on gels and sports drinks but this can lead to GI distress, let alone the flavour fatigue due to their sweet, monotonous nature. Choosing the Wrong Types of Real Food: Opting for heavy, high-fiber or high-protein snacks can be really hard on your gut, especially over extended periods. For the extended sessions, you need to focus on easy-to-digest carbohydrates that deliver quick energy without the bloat. Inadequate Packaging and Practicality: Your snacks need to be accessible on the bike, otherwise they become soggy, melt, or fall apart. This is one of the major appeals of gels and other sports nutrition products but there are ways to package homemade foods properly. Flavour Fatigue and Lack of Variety: There aren’t many athletes out there who are actually happy to chew on the same gummies or choke down the same gel hour after hour. So many athletes ask me how to change it up, including savoury options and varying textures. It can be done! Mismatched Fuelling to Ride Intensity and Duration: Not all rides are created equal which is why you need to tailor your nutrition strategy to match the intensity and duration of each session. Top 5 Real Food Ideas for Long Rides Rice Cakes: Light and versatile with sweet or savoury flavors. Perfect for long, steady aerobic rides. Energy Balls: My recipe is portable and customisable with endless flavors. Ideal for a mid-ride energy boost. Dietitian-Approved Bike Bars: This is my take on a homemade muesli / granola bar for a nutritious, easy-to-digest mid-ride snack. Fruit Puree Pouches: Quick carbs in a mess-free option. Great for sensitive stomachs and hot conditions. High Carb Muffins: Sports-specific muffins offer a delicious and practical treat for long endurance rides, without the excess fat and fibre of store bought options. You can find these specific recipes and loads more in my  Fuel Your Adventure Recipe book, which is packed with recipes to help you fuel better and power your body to perform at your best. LINKS:

The guest, sports dietitian and 18x-marathoner Meghann Featherstun of Featherstone Nutrition, talks with hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Amanda Loudin, about:  -how GLP-1 agonists work on various parts of the body; -how to “eat around” these drugs to fuel (+ refuel) runs; -balancing carbs and proteins given reduced appetite;  -concerns about runners using these Rx's for “vanity” weight loss; and, -whether you can train for a marathon while on these drugs.     The guest joins around 8:26, but first Amanda tells about learning to curl (yes, as in, the icy Olympic sport!).    When you shop our sponsors, you help AMR.
