INTY: How to fuel your teen athlete

Send some quick feedback! Click here.

Nutrition can be confusing. It seems every six months we hear of new eating plans and diets and lions and tigers and bears, oh my.

Adding to the noise is how, exactly, do we get quality food in our teen athletes? Do they need to eat differently? And how do we encourage them to actually eat what is best for them to perform and recover well?

I'm beyond excited to share my conversation with Roberta Anding today. Roberta is a sports dietitian and has so many letters after her name I don't even know what they all mean.

Currently, Roberta serves as the sports dietitian for the Houston Astros, Rice University athletics, and Baylor College of Medicine Corporate Programs. She's also the former sports dietitian for the Houston Texans NFL franchise and Houston Ballet.

Topics Discussed

In today's conversation, we dig into fueling teen athletes. We cover:

How to create buy-in from your adolescentThe most important aspect of fueling wellWhat to do when your child visits Whataburger too muchProtein needs and the best way to fill themSimple, cost-effective ways to include more protein in your child's mealsResources for parents and teen athletes including websites and books.
