'Sports Nutrition Myths' - In this episode, special guest Faye Townsend, Registered Sports Nutritionist (AfN & SENr) discusses her 'Top Five Sports Nutrition Myths', in order to help soft tissue therapists guide clients on what & how to fuel their performance.
With a first-class bachelor (BSc) degree in 'Nutrition with Food Consumer Science' and postgraduate degree in 'Sports and Exercise Nutrition (SENr)', Faye Townsend is a highly respected specialist in nutrition for athletic performance. In her daily work, however, she is keen to highlight how food is not only fuel, but also a daily source of pleasure & comfort, for socialising and for reward. Striking a balance between both pleasure and health can be difficult, filled with complications and confused by marketing messages.
