Manage episode 437880871 series 1659694
Kelly Slovin is a Sports Dietitian and expert on Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs) with a background in helping athletes, and active individuals fuel their bodies for peak performance. After navigating her journey with hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA), which she now identifies as REDs, Kelly has become a passionate advocate for educating others about the critical importance of proper nutrition and menstrual health.
In this episode, Kelly and I discuss the nuances of REDs, how it differs from the older concept of the Female Athlete Triad, why maintaining a regular menstrual cycle is vital for athletes, the detrimental effects of over-exercising and under-fueling, signs and symptoms of REDs to be aware of, challenges in researching female athletes, strategies for long-term management and prevention of REDs, and more. Enjoy the episode!
