Dear Runner Bod,

Your Running Nutrition Is a Hormone Intervention (Whether You Know It or Not)


Listen Later

What if improving your hormone health didn’t require supplements, protocols, or “fixing” your body—just fueling it properly?

In this episode, I break down how eating enough and fueling intentionally as a runner can inadvertently support hormone health. We’re talking improved fertility markers, fewer PMS symptoms, better cycle regularity, increased sex drive, and more support through perimenopause—all without chasing hormone hacks.

You’ll learn:

  • How underfueling disrupts key reproductive hormones
    • Why carbs are not the enemy of estrogen or progesterone
      • How proper running nutrition supports ovulation, libido, and cycle health
        • Why many hormone symptoms are actually energy availability issues
        • If you run—and have hormones (so… yes)—this one’s for you.
