The ALL ME® Podcast Nutrient Timing - Lisa Heaton, MS, RD, CSSD Have you ever wondered if when you eat a particular type of food on whether it can impact your performance? For example, should you eat right before workout or does consuming carbohydrates and/or protein after workout improve strength and recovery. What if you are running a marathon as should you consume something during a 3-5-hour event? In this podcast, we speak with Gatorade Scientist and Sports Dietitian Lisa Heaton on the timing of macronutrients and how they impact performance, recovery, and endurance. Lisa explains the role of carbohydrates and protein, pre, during, and post exercise as well as how much we need to maximize performance. We also discuss the role of carbohydrate and protein type and how they influence the outcome.  Lisa has worked in the sports nutrition realm since 2007 and is a Board Certified Specialist in Sports Dietetics (CSSD) with interests in sports nutrition, recovery, hydration and performance.
