    Women in Sport Week – Special Episode of the Irish Athletics Podcast with Dietitian Elle Kelly

    On day three of Women in Sport week Athletics Ireland brings you a special episode of our weekly Irish Athletics podcast that covers all the basics of RED-S, also known as relative energy deficiency in sport. While not an exclusively female phenomenon, female athletes in certain categories of athletics are at higher risk of developing it and the loss of periods is just one of the many signs of the disorder. Elle Kelly is an Irish sports dietitian that works in eating disorders and disordered eating. She had over five years' experience working in eating disorder services in the NHS in England before going full-time with her own private practice, EK Nutrition. She is a keen runner (stay tuned to see how her progress is going) and played many sports as a teenager. In this episode Katie Kirk (qualified sports nutritionist with a master’s degree in the topic) asks Dietitian Elle all your burning questions about RED-s and will help to dispel some of the mistruths about the disorder that can have long lasting impacts on health and wellbeing for athletes.
