🎧 Podcast: Why Calories Aren’t the Real Problem (MICROnutrients 101)
You can hit your calories.
You can hit your protein.
And still feel flat, foggy, hungry, and stuck.
That’s not a willpower issue.
That’s a biology issue.
In this episode of the Business Athlete Podcast, I break down one of the most overlooked levers in modern nutrition: micronutrients — the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and compounds that actually run your metabolism, hormones, and nervous system.
We unpack why:
• Energy stays low even when calories are “dialed in”
• Cravings aren’t a discipline flaw — they’re feedback
• Getting leaner and performing better increases nutrient demand
• Bloodwork removes the guesswork and shows you where friction really is
• Diet culture obsesses over restriction instead of nourishment
We also connect the dots on how micronutrients support sex hormones, thyroid output, insulin sensitivity, cardiovascular health, and why food quality and variety matter far more than chasing perfect macro splits.
If you’re doing all the “right” things but still don’t feel right, this episode will help you understand what your body is actually asking for — and how fueling the system properly changes everything.
