Dear Reader
If youβve ever been feeling unusually tired, picking up every cold going, or noticing a dip in your running performance, low iron might be to blame.
In my latest article, I explore why endurance runners are particularly at risk of iron deficiency β and how simple changes to your diet can help protect your energy, immunity, and recovery.
π Plus, there's a list of Iron-Rich Meal Ideas for Runners to help you fuel your day with iron-rich meals, whether youβre plant-based or omnivorous.
Available at Amazon UK/US/CA/EU and other countries. NB Ebook only in AUS.
Plus Virtual Goodie Bag
Scan QR code in the book for helpful downloadable pdfs: menu planning help, kitchen time savers, athlete plate graphics, food lists, templates and checklists.
We discuss the potential causes of iron insufficiency/deficiency, the effects of iron status on running performance then highlight nutritional factors to support OPTIMAL iron status.
