There is a lot of misinformation when it comes to blood sugar management. Carbohydrates are often demonized, when we know they are what helps you support your energy in training and beyond. In today's episode, Registered Sports Dietitian & Diabetes Educator Shannon Wilson MS, RDN, CDN, CDCES, CSSD, chats with us about blood sugar management for athletes.
In today's episode we cover:
-what is blood sugar? insulin?
-continuous glucose monitors
-what nutrients impact your blood sugar
-do athlete's with pre-diabetes or diabetes need to avoid fueling their workouts with carbs?
-impact of under-fueling on blood sugar regulation
and more!
