Is there a place for recovery shakes?


In this Ask a Sports Dietitian segment, Dr Gemma Sampson discusses the importance of recovery nutrition, focusing on recovery shakes and their role in muscle recovery. She emphasises the four Rs of recovery: restoring carbohydrates, rebuilding with protein, rehydrating, and revitalising with micronutrients.


The timing of nutrition intake post-exercise is crucial for optimal recovery, and she provides insights into choosing the right recovery shake based on individual needs and preferences.
