Hear from sports nutrition experts as they discuss:

  • Are Ultra-Processed Foods the Latest Dietary Villain? Chris Rosenbloom, PhD, RDN, FAND
  • Updates on Hydration: What’s New and How Does it Inform Current Recommendations? Michelle King, PhD
  • The Science of Adaptogens and Physical Performance, Vicki Shanta Retelny, RDN
