Description

Today I’m chatting with Albert Matheny - RD, performance nutritionist, and founder of PROMIX - all about what’s actually in your food and how to fuel your body in a way that feels good and supports your goals.


Albert has degrees in Exercise Physiology, Human Nutrition, and Human Performance, and he seriously knows his stuff. We get into why you might be crashing after meals (even “healthy” ones), how to read labels without overthinking it, and the sneaky ingredients like gums and sugar alcohols that could be messing with your gut.


We also talk protein, hydration, carbs, blood sugar, and how to make better choices without overcomplicating your routine. This one’s packed with info and super actionable, especially if you want to feel more energized, clear, and strong day to day!
