Everyone is trying to sell a supplement to you—but should student athletes actually be taking them? In Episode 33 of the Student Athlete Performance Podcast, I break down the truth about supplements and what athletes need to know before spending a dime on them.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
When to consider supplements
The most well-researched supplements
The importance of 3rd-party testing (NSF Certified for Sport or Informed Sport) to avoid banned substances and contamination.
Why you can’t out-supplement a bad diet
We’ll also discuss the supplements most likely to contain banned substances, how to avoid career-derailing mistakes, and practical steps to optimize your nutrition before turning to supplements.
