In this episode of the Consummate Athlete Podcast, Molly Hurford chats with sports dietitian Lindsey Cortes. We explore the staggering statistic that up to 45% of female athletes engage in some form of disordered eating. We discuss the reasons behind this, how it happens, and the signs and symptoms of Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S). Lindsay shares insights on the biggest dietary pitfalls athletes face, not just during exercise but throughout the day. We also learn that RED-S can also affect athletes who aren't underweight, offering a broader perspective on this condition.    This Episode is brought to you by AG1- drinkAG1.com/MOLLYH – to receive your bonus of a free 1-year supply of Vitamin D and 5 Free Travel Packs   This Episode is brought to you by Consummate Athlete Event and Goal Based Training Plans, available in the Training Peaks Store.
