Fueling for Optimal Performance with Leslie Bonci

A conversation between Dr. Lee Kaplan and Leslie Bonci, sports nutrition consultant for the 2020 and 2023 Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs. Leslie is a registered dietitian, board-certified specialist in sports dietetics, the owner of Active Eating Advice, a nutrition consulting company, and co-founder of Performance365, a sports nutrition consulting company.  We discuss the role of a personalized nutrition plan in optimal human (and sports) performance, why your “hand to mouth activity" (what to eat, when, and how much) and internal fitness equipment (food and fluids) are critical to achieving your sports performance and body composition goals, the dangers of health halos, and the importance of muscle preservation and body composition as outcomes of proper nutrition.
