| i gotta agree with Nat on this. too often the biggest bit of 'advice' i hear from nutritionists is 'eat a balanced/healthy diet'. well, duh.
my mother qualifies as a nutritionist based on this revelation.
i remember being told by a nutritionist way back when i was much younger NOT to consume diary products prior to swimming/games cos they were tough to digest and increased phlegm in the airways - which would make for potentially messy and difficult breathing. gobbing phlegm out your snorkel was not considered a good look even before we had cameras at worlds.
go to 5 different nutritionists, get 5 different answers i think.
perhaps we all need to careful in selection of the nutritionists we talk to.
Dr Nat, what qualifications should we be asking these folks to produce in order to prove their bona fides? |
