I got my BS in Dietetics from Florida State University, but after graduation I decided to pursue a career as a professional runner instead of getting my certification and starting to practice as a dietitian. Nutrition is still a passion of mine, so for an ongoing segment of my newsletter I’m calling “Ask the Dietitian,” we get to do just that. I’ve teamed up with a few professionals and given my fans the opportunity (via my IG) to ask them questions related to nutrition.
Ask the dietitian, Lisa Braden
What is the best way to deal with cravings?
What is the best mix of proteins, carbs, and fats (macros) for runners?
How do I stay satiated on a plant-based diet?
Is it bad to eat fruit because of all of the sugar in it?
If these questions apply to you…
Ask the nutritionist, Lindsey Elizabeth
Do you generally eat the same amount of calories each day when you are in a hard training cycle or do you eat more on hard days and less on easy days?
How many calories should I eat in a day if I’m a teen girl and running an average of 6 miles a day
What are the best foods to stay full? I’m always hungry again like an hour after a meal.
If these questions apply to you…
Ask the Dietitian, Lisa braden
I am injured and can’t run, how do I manage eating on a rest day or during off season?
Are carbs really bad for breakfast?
What is your opinion about eating multivitamins? Do we eat enough or should we supplement with them?
Are beets really as beneficial as everyone says they are for runners?
If these questions apply to you…
Are you a dietitian who works with runners? Would you like to be a part of my “Ask the Nutritionist” segment of my newsletter! Let me know!
