Heyyy! Welcome to the Dr K Show and the Fit and Healthy Athlete Podcast!
With the popularity of labs and micronutrient gaps sky-rocketing in the athletic world, you might be thinking that supplementation is the only way to fill in gaps AND is necessary for you to be both healthy and perform well. And I totally get it because micronutrients are becoming a more popular point of discussion as micronutrient deficiencies are being highlighted in athletes.
I’ve spoken on many podcasts and there are a lot of people and labs that are promoting micronutrient status which is awesome. But… supplementation may be limiting your ability to get stronger, faster… and it may even be causing a bit of toxicity. In this episode I’m diving into micronutrients and showing you the what’s, why’s, how’s and when’s so that you can be confident in your health and supplement (or lack of) routine.
