Description

Immune health is intricately connected to nutrition, genetics, and activity level, with each person requiring a unique approach based on their genetic makeup and lifestyle. Chris ties in how nutrition, genetics, supplements and immunity all relate for active people and athletes.

Educational only; not medical advice.

You’ll hear about:

  • The one plate shift most athletes overlook—and why it changes everything
  • A simple number that helps you right-size protein for longevity and immunity
  • How certain genetics can influence your immune health, food choices and supplement strategy
  • A surprising pre-race sip that showed promise in a study 🤔
  • The trendy powder everyone’s asking about—and what we really think
  • Why timing beats megadosing for certain supplements for immunity
  • The unsexy lifestyle levers that quietly bulletproof your season (hint: wash your hands!)

Join Chris in a FREE webinar, 7 Steps to Longevity: Sustainable Nutrition & Performance for Active People where you’ll discover the exact framework we use with athletes and active adults to fuel their bodies properly, perform their best mentally and physically, and feel younger—without fad diets.
