Examples for Gut Health & Fitness
Understanding BMR and TDEE
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the number of calories your body needs at rest, while Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) accounts for all activities. Knowing these values helps tailor your nutrition to avoid GI distress during exercise.
Pre-Workout Nutrition for IBS
Choosing the right foods before exercise is critical for those with IBS. Focus on easily digestible carbs and proteins, and avoid high-fat or high-fiber meals that may trigger symptoms.
Identifying Food Sensitivities
Use elimination diets to pinpoint food sensitivities that may contribute to GI distress. Gradually reintroduce foods while monitoring your body's response to better understand your triggers.
Tips for Gut Health & Fitness
- Incorporate probiotics into your diet to support gut health and digestion.
- Stay hydrated, but avoid large amounts of water immediately before workouts to prevent bloating.
- Keep a food diary to track what you eat and how it affects your digestion during exercise.
