In this episode of The Hard Truth, Jeremy Fouts breaks down one of the biggest misconceptions in sports nutrition: that athletes need more supplements instead of more real food.

Drawing from decades of coaching and nutrition experience, Jeremy shares why true performance starts in the kitchen—not the supplement aisle. He explains how real foods provide the essential micronutrients—like potassium, calcium, magnesium, and vitamin C—that fuel recovery, energy, and long-term health. Through practical examples, Jeremy shows parents and athletes how to build meals that support strength, focus, and gut health without relying on processed snacks, high-sodium drinks, or misleading “zero sugar” marketing.

From understanding how bananas, yogurt, salmon, and sweet potatoes outperform supplements to exposing the truth about electrolyte marketing, this episode is a wake-up call for parents and athletes to get back to the basics—because real food still wins every time.
