Best of FFF: Nutrition Divas and Inflamed Athletes

On today’s episode of Fit Fat Fast, Debbie and Jon welcome Monica Reinagel, Master of Science, Licensed Nutritionist and host of the wildly popular Nutrition Diva podcast, on the show to talk about the correlation between nutrition and inflammation. In particular they discuss the role of carbohydrate and inflammation in the endurance athlete and the discussion reveals both really surprising and confirming theories, most notably that proper amounts of non-sugary carbs during and immediately after exercise are not inflammatory but any other time outside of that window of exercise they definitely are! They dive deep into what foods to avoid, what helps and how inflammation both helps and hinders human performance. Jon and Debbie also dig into some listener mail and discuss how to fuel an Ironman and what role Maffetone Training has in the gym.
