Immune Health for Athletes: Nutrition, Genetics & Smart Supplementation Ep 110

Immune health is intricately connected to nutrition, genetics, and activity level, with each person requiring a unique approach based on their genetic makeup and lifestyle. Chris ties in how nutrition, genetics, supplements and immunity all relate for active people and athletes.

Educational only; not medical advice.

You’ll hear about:

• The one plate shift most athletes overlook—and why it changes everything
• A simple number that helps you right-size protein for longevity and immunity
• How certain genetics can influence your immune health, food choices and supplement strategy
• A surprising pre-race sip that showed promise in a study 🤔
• The trendy powder everyone’s asking about—and what we really think
• Why timing beats megadosing for certain supplements for immunity
• The unsexy lifestyle levers that quietly bulletproof your season (hint: wash your hands!)
