Understanding sudden death syndrome in performance athletes – Heidi du Preez

Épisode 8

mardi 20 août 2024 • Durée 55:12

It has been estimated that 1 to 3 in 100,000 apparently healthy young athletes die suddenly during exercise; especially in sports like basketball, football, and American football (McKelvie et al., 2022). Cardiac events are considered the most common medical cause of sudden death syndrome in performance athletes: myocarditis, inflammation of the heart muscle, is considered by the American College of Cardiology a very likely reason for such traumatic events, with chronic inflammation and oxidative stress as the main underlying etiological factors.

In this podcast, host Ian Craig asks nutritional scientist and practitioner, Heidi du Preez, about the underlying factors that could contribute to sudden cardiac death susceptibility among performing athletes. Included within this discussion is a deep dive into sulphur metabolism and the importance of sulphation for cardiovascular health: the degree and position of sulphate groups in the endothelial layers of the heart has an important effect on its function. Additionally, the factors that contribute to the sulphate pool, and those that deplete it, will be explored. This podcast ultimately aims to provide nutrition and lifestyle strategies that should lesson the likelihood of sudden death syndrome during sporting events.

About Heidi

Heidi du Preez PhD candidate is a professional registered scientist, specialising in nutritional biochemistry. She obtained a masters degree in food science in 1995, and has been working in the arena of functional medicine since 1999. Heidi is currently registered for a PhD in Clinical Medicine at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, with sulphur metabolism as her area of specialisation.

What can we learn from the Blue Zones that can empower longevity in sport, and for life? – Prof Justin Roberts

Épisode 7

vendredi 9 août 2024 • Durée 54:09

Since the publication of the Blue Zones book, a National Geographic exploration of areas in the world where many healthy centurions are found, there has been an increasing interest in health and longevity; ‘healthspan’. But, what lessons can we learn from such populations that might be of interest to athletes and active individuals?

Professor Justin Roberts has done a lot of research into the Blue Zones, plus has experienced the zone in Sardinia first hand. Podcast host Ian Craig asks him to define key aspects of this way of life, that contribute to incredibly healthy states of wellbeing. Their conversation delves into eating patterns, communities, culture and faith, polyphenols, ‘downshifting’, and symbiosis with the environment.

But how do the Blue Zones relate to athletes? More and more active individuals view sport and exercise as a means towards better health and fitness, but the way in which we engage in exercise affects the health or ‘dis-ease’ experienced during it. These learnings also apply to longevity of a sports career (think of the footballer Ronaldo) and duration and quality of life thereafter. Tune in to learn more.

About Justin

Professor Justin Roberts PhD is a Professor in Nutritional Physiology for Health and Exercise at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge and Director of Research at the Cambridge Centre for Sport & Exercise Science, plus Program Leader for Muscle and Mobility platforms at Danone Nutricia Research. With over 20 years’ experience in sport and exercise physiology and nutrition, Justin’s current research interests include the effect of polyphenol phytonutrients on fat oxidation and cardio-metabolic health, as well as nutrition factors aligned with the ‘muscle-gut-brain’ axis, in particular probiotic and protein interventions to support muscle recovery and adaptations to exercise. He is a registered nutritional therapist with the British Association for Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) and the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC).

Harnessing our metabolism through the lens of nutrigenomics – Emma Beswick

Épisode 6

jeudi 4 juillet 2024 • Durée 01:05:14

Although we are genetically 99 per cent the same, differences in our genetic code impact every aspect of our lives: how we look, feel and behave… our DNA is what makes us – Us. Specific to this discussion, our unique code innately impacts our metabolism: how we absorb (digest), transport, and metabolise fats, carbs and proteins for energy, and how we build body tissue or store energy for later use. Emma and Ian discuss the genes that most impact individual ability and preference to use fats or carbs for fuel, and how this knowledge can inform our dietary choices with respect to optimally supporting exercise training, and improving athletic performance.

By revealing their personal ‘nutrigenomics of metabolism’ results, Emma and Ian compare and contrast their own unique macronutrient preferences in the context of sport, and also delve into a few genes that are particularly impactful for metabolism. They also consider the micronutrient and phytonutrition needs of these metabolic pathways, along with strategies to improve the metabolic flexibility of an athlete.

Ultimately, within potentially quite complex subject matter, the goal of this podcast is to join the dots between a deep dive analysis of the genes of metabolism, and the big picture application of this information within the personal perspective of a sports person.

About Emma

Emma Beswick Bio MBA, BA (Hons), Dip (NatNut) is an experienced nutritional therapist and co-founder of Lifecode Gx – the foremost nutrigenetic testing and training company. Emma lectures widely on the subject of nutrigenomics and is well known and respected for her knowledge and ability to present complex aspects of nutrigenomics in an accessible and clinically relevant way. As a keen runner (and ‘good for age’ marathoner), she has particular, and personal interests in women’s health, sports nutrition and healthy ageing, and attempts to walk (or run) the talk by applying nutrigenomics in practice.

Protecting an athlete’s joints with nutrition and lifestyle – Dr Ruth Wilde

Épisode 5

lundi 24 juin 2024 • Durée 59:21

Medically, an athlete’s joints tend to be viewed simply as mechanical structures, to be replaced when they’re worn out! But thankfully Dr Ruth Wilde thinks and works differently – she sees joints as living, breathing tissues, just like the rest of our physiology, which must be nourished by what we consume.

What’s more, an athlete’s joints are affected by the training pattens and life load of the individual, plus the inflammation and oxidative stress expressed systemically by gastrointestinal and hormonal imbalances. Host Ian Craig asks Ruth, from a functional medicine perspective, how she assesses the condition of an athlete’s joints, and the types of lifestyle, nutrition and medical interventions she uses to sustain the health of an athlete’s joints for longer.

Self-empowerment is critical to any health intervention, and as Ruth makes clear in this podcast interview, when an athlete brings attention to aspects of their lives under their control, including training patterns, nutritional quality, and overall self care, their joints can enjoy a longer active career. Tune in to learn more.

Podcast hosted by The Centre for Integrative Sports Nutrition.

Why are athletes experiencing anxiety, and what can they can do about it? – Dr Patricia Worby

Épisode 4

mardi 21 mai 2024 • Durée 01:01:12

Ever since the delayed Tokyo 2020 Olympics, held during the times of Covid 19 restrictions, anxiety in sport has become an evident problem for many athletes. The most publicised case at the time was the highly medalled American gymnast Simone Biles, who withdrew from the women’s gymnastics team competition, suffering from anxiety.

But what is causing these anxiety problems in sport, and why does it seem so prevalent now? And what can highly focussed sports people do to maintain mental and emotional steadiness? These are just some of the questions that Ian will pose to his guest Dr Patricia Worby during this deeply applied and insightful mindbody discussion.

With the goal of consistent training and improved performances, mindbody resonance is of fundamental importance to overcome anxiety in sport, and according to Patricia, to achieve this we must lead life with our heart more than our (over) analytical mind. Tune in to learn more.

Podcast hosted by The Centre for Integrative Sports Nutrition.

Using functional laboratory testing to optimise physical excellence – Dr Warren Brown

Épisode 3

lundi 29 avril 2024 • Durée 53:59

The integrative systems biology perspective is slowly and progressively seeping into sport and exercise nutrition practice. This way of working considers the health of an athlete’s digestive tract, neuroendocrine, immune, and musculoskeletal systems, along with factors such as mitochondrial energy production from available macronutrients; all of which can be measured by laboratory testing.

Dr Brown has honed his craft to assess the state of these body systems using functional laboratory testing, and talks to Ian Craig about his clinical experiences. In this podcast, Warren considers what is different about an athlete’s body compared to that of a lay person, and shares some of his favourite tests that he uses in a sporting context.

What’s more, not all important clinical information can be found in laboratory test reports, no matter how detailed, so Warren tells Ian about the ‘X-factors’ that he includes within the assessment and treatment of his athletic clients.

Podcast hosted by The Centre for Integrative Sports Nutrition.

About Warren

Dr. Warren Brown earned his doctorate degree from The School of Naturopathic Medicine at Bastyr University in Seattle, Washington, followed by completion of a CNME-accredited, clinical residency program in Tacoma, Washington.

The Goldilocks Zone: is there a sweet spot for sporting adaptations? – Paul Ehren and Alex Kirchin

Épisode 2

jeudi 21 mars 2024 • Durée 01:00:12

In the current sporting arena, we are surrounded by extreme practices: extreme training regimes, extreme dietary manipulations, and extreme lifestyle measures. These are intended to create a hormetic driver to stimulate a physiological response for the betterment of certain health parameters and sporting adaptations. And in many cases that’s exactly what happens.

But how much is too much? How many tough training sessions can your body handle before maladaptation, injury, illness, and overtraining ensue? How regularly can you exercise fasted before running out of the ‘fuel for the work required’? And just how often can you immerse yourself in cold water before your body stops adapting in a desirable manner? These are just some of the questions that Ian posed to his guests Paul Ehren and Alex Kirchin during this philosophical and applied discussion of sporting adaptations.

If we can assume that health is a requisite to sporting success, it will then be pertinent for sport and exercise practitioners to help their athletic clients find the sweet spot for physiological health and sporting adaptations. Not too hard, not too soft; not too hot, not too cold; and not too little, not too much.

Podcast hosted by The Centre for Integrative Sports Nutrition.

About Paul and Alex

Paul K Ehren. Following a successful career in the City of London, Paul formed his own personal fitness consultancy based in Essex and East London, which he has now run for over 20 years. During this period, Paul competed as a Masters Bodybuilder and in a career that spanned some 20 years, became British Champion and also won various regional and international titles. The lack of competitions and the uncertainty surrounding the Covid pandemic forced Paul to retire from competition at the age of 62.

Paul’s current focus on ‘HealthSpan’ for practitioners and for clients has been prompted by observations he has made along the way in his career, together with reflections on his own life experience. Paul believes that individuals who work at the ‘coal face’ of practitioner-client interaction are best placed to navigate a path through the plethora of sometimes conflicting advice on healthy ageing, and to guide athletes to maintain optimal functional health throughout life stages. From extensive client experience he is well equipped to discuss sporting adaptations.

Immunity tips for athletes to thrive during the winter months – with Amy Desborough

Épisode 1

mardi 5 mars 2024 • Durée 57:11

Most athletes are only afraid of two things – injury and illness. Unfortunately, for many athletes the winter months can coincide with heavier training volumes or tough competition schedules, which can increase the incidence of an upper respiratory tract infection, or other type of illness. Immunity tips for athletes form a vital part of maintaining a regular training programme throughout the year.

In this interview, Ian Craig asks Amy Desborough, athlete and nutritional therapist, about what active individuals can do to support their immune system during the colder months. As you will hear, there are many immune strategies available to us, from basic lifestyle strategies through to specific supplement support.

Ian and Amy discuss the germ versus terrain theory of immunity, plus the effect that training load, stress, compromised sleep, and lack of rest can have on immunity for athletes. They also consider specialised immune strategies, including yoga and cold water immersion, and how much of these we should potentially be doing. Then they engage in a nutrition discussion, including consideration of a ‘rainbow diet’, anti-inflammatory strategies, and how to maintain vibrant gut-based immunity. Immune-supporting nutrition supplements are also discussed; including vitamins and minerals, such as vitamins C and D, the methylating B-vitamins, CoQ10, and zinc; plus certain speciality supplements like beta glucans and immune-active mushrooms.

Podcast hosted by The Centre for Integrative Sports Nutrition.

Nourishing a female athlete’s active phases of life – Karen Harrison

Épisode 9

mardi 1 octobre 2024 • Durée 58:45

Any woman will tell you that their health, training, and nutrition needs are different to that of a man, but yet much of the research data in the field of sports nutrition has come from male subjects. So, what if exercise and nutrition practitioners could personalise their advice to the particular needs of female athletes, and in particular, the unique case presentations of individual female clients? Would their health and performance improve?

In this podcast, host Ian Craig asks nutrition and genetic practitioner, Karen Harrison, about the way she works with female athletes, which leads into a guided tour of the phases of life in active women. Specifically, Karen addresses the now-popular notion of periodising training and nutrition around the menstrual cycle, she considers the peri-menopausal years, adding nutrition and lifestyle recommendations to make the transition into menopause easier, and she also talks about supporting active ageing women, who have ‘healthspan’ in mind. The ultimate focus of this podcast is to emphasise the individualised health needs of a woman, considering her nutritional intake, exercise training, stress load, and unique hormone rhythms.

About Karen

Karen Harrison MSc BSc is the owner of Team Gene, providing genetic reports for active individuals, looking into energy production, repair potential, sleep and lifestyle. Her main objective with genetic testing is to create a bespoke report specifically for the individual, depending on their health concerns and the type of training they are doing.
