In this episode, Reilly and Jenna discuss the importance of iron for athletes. They highlight the role of iron in energy production and its impact on red blood cell production and oxygen delivery to the muscles. They differentiate between heme and non-heme sources of iron, and what this means for athletes. They also talk through fueling approaches for athletes to ensure adequate iron intake through a balanced diet, including both heme and non-heme sources. They also caution against unnecessary iron supplementation without proper lab testing and guidance from a healthcare professional.
