I want to make sure my athletes know how to recognise symptoms of deficiency but also how to fix it, quickly.Joining me in this episode is fellow Advanced Sports Dietitian Rebecca Hall aka Beccy. She has recently submitted her Masters in Iron supplementation for endurance athletes travelling to altitude with the goal of increasing haemoglobin mass.She is well across the research in this space but is also excellent at translating that deep science into something practical and easy to understand.
