    Top 5 Supplements for Endurance Athletes

    In this episode, Michael and Liz Raynor discuss five supplements that can be beneficial for endurance athletes. Whether it’s to help improve performance, aid recovery, or help shore up gaps that endurance athletes often have in their diets, these are some of the most well researched supplements for endurance athletes.  Before you dive in, it's important to note we recommend starting with a food-first mentality, meaning, as an endurance athlete, your focus should be on making sure you have a balanced diet providing you all of the nutrients you need, and then you can start looking to supplements as icing on the cake or for those marginal gains.  If you're an endurance athlete who's been curious about supplements, give this episode a listen!
