Maintaining a healthy diet is a challenge for most of us. One of the key reasons behind it is the lack of knowledge when it comes to what we need to consume and in what proportion. In this podcast, Professor Timothy Noakes weighs in on the importance of macro as well as micronutrients, the role of carbohydrates and fats, the difference between a diet for good health and a diet for performance as well as the importance of a good carb loading plan before an endurance event. If you are looking to learn a bit more about the different elements of a good diet, this is the conversation for you.
Prof Noakes is the author or co‐author of more than 250 scientific publications and is on the editorial boards of eight international scientific publications. He is the founder and director of the Noakes foundation, founder and medical director at Nutritional Network and the co-founder of Eat Better South Africa.
