About this listen

What we eat has a huge impact on our physical and mental health and on our performance in our chosen sport, whether we’re elite-level athletes or enthusiastic amateurs. But with so much information out there, how do we choose a way of eating that is right for us?

More Fuel You is a clear and authoritative guide to making the most of your nutrition. Leading sports dietitian Renee McGregor looks at fueling needs for sporting participation, training, and competition and analyses some popular diet options, including low-carbohydrate, vegan, and intermittent fasting.

But this is not just another sports-nutrition book. Renee recommends a holistic view: by understanding the human body and being self-aware, you can find the ideal nutritional approach for you personally. Significantly, Renee also discusses areas of sports nutrition in populations that are often overlooked, including women’s health and menopause, healthy aging, and the inclusion of individuals who don’t necessarily conform to the stereotype of an athlete, such as people living with chronic health conditions.

Whatever your race, genetics, gender, age, socioeconomic status, body type, or ability, it’s important to be your own athlete, fuel appropriately for your body, and enjoy what you do.

Whether you’re a world-class or real-world athlete, if you’re serious about sport and nutrition, you can’t afford not to listen to this book.

One of the most trusted names in nutrition

Renee gets it. This is a fantastic evidence-based book in a time of misinformation overload. And importantly, Renee also has a deep understanding and respect for the individuality of nutrition.

The final chapter should be essential reading for all human beings.

Renee's voice and kind spirit made this an especially enjoyable listening experience.

My favorite excerpt: "Not all public health messaging applies to you."

Outdated keto advice for athletes

I am an athlete that follows a ketogenic diet for years. I have an autoimmune disease and insulin resistance. Although the author suggests the ketogenic diet is good for people with things like insulin resistance the useful information stops there.
So far I was able to run marathons and haven't suffered from the side effects that she mentions people on keto have.
I would go so far as to say the book is outdated on this topic. Just Google "Matt Carpenter UK low carb", If I'm not mistaken his research was published in 2021 (before this book was released) so either the author didn't do her homework or just cherry-picked research for supporting carbs-heavy diets.
Just to clarify, I do eat carbs on race day even though I'm on a ketogenic diet. I consume carbs when I'm exercising but way lower than what she suggests like 1/4.
I'm glad other people can eat carbs but I can't because of bad insulin resistance and mistakes I did in my youth years that led to that. This book is not for keto even if it has a chapter on it.
