In this episode of Heated Conversations, registered dietitian Kerry Bair shares valuable insights on what nutrition truly means, offering definitions, practical advice, and ways for athletes and parents to educate themselves. Learn how proper nutrition can help athletes get the best out of their body, mind, soul, and spirit.
