Nutrition for Young Athletes – Ask a Nutritionist
Show: Dishing Up Nutrition
Got young athletes in your life? In this episode of Dishing Up Nutrition’s Ask a Nutritionist, Registered Dietitian Teresa Wagner tackles a great question from a mom wondering how to fuel her active teens. Teresa dives into what real food nutrition looks like for young athletes - from muscle-building proteins and energizing carbs to hormone-supporting healthy fats. She also shares snack ideas, hydration tips, and smart supplement options (plus a few not-so-great trends she’s seeing on the sidelines!). Whether your kid is on the field, in the gym, or just loves to move, this episode is packed with practical, doable ways to help them feel and play their best.
