Fuel for Thought: A practical guide to fuelling for your adventures

Description:

Food should be really simple. It is the means by which we nourish our bodies, providing them with the nutrients and fuel we need in order to live, exercise and socialise. Yet, in recent years, food and nutrition have become more complicated, confusing and polarising than ever before.

Fuel for Thought by leading sports dietitian Renee McGregor is a practical and trustworthy guide to sports nutrition, whether you’re a world-class or real-world athlete, or just someone who wants to improve their relationship with food. Cutting through the jargon and misinformation, Renee draws on over twenty years’ experience of working with sportspeople from a range of disciplines and backgrounds to provide straightforward, accessible advice about how you can fuel your adventures.

The follow-up to More Fuel You, in this book Renee looks at sports nutrition through the lens of her own sporting passion – running. She urges caution over the explosion of social media nutrition and fitness experts, apps and programmes that all claim to offer bespoke dietary advice. Instead, she offers practical information based on her own personal and professional experiences, including an A–Z of foods and a section dedicated to her own tried-and-tested, budget-friendly recipe ideas which use simple, everyday ingredients. There is also guidance on how to recognise and get help with dysfunctional behaviours, from REDs to exercise dependency, and how to be informed about your hormonal health when you go in search of appropriate support.


Review

I used to be a track and field athlete (heptathlon) and I honestly wish I’d read this at the time. It is an absolutely essential read for young female athletes in particular.' – Ashleigh Spiliopoulou, freelance writer for Stylist magazine

Should athletes be taking collagen supplements? How about creatine, Vitamin D, cherry or beetroot? How is fuelling different at altitude? All of those and a feckton more key questions are answered in @r_mcgregor's ruddy bloody ace new book.' – ultrarunner Damian Hall

The book is logically written which I love and starts with “What type of runner are you taking into account everything in your life, not just the running. I’ve always thought that this is incredibly important.' – Nicky Spinks, long-distance runner

This book will become your bible when it comes to all things nutrition.' – Ashleigh Spiliopoulou, Marie Claire

In stark contrast to the shallows of social media, Fuel for Thought is approachable and deeply informative, brushing aside toxic diet culture and empowering readers to rethink their approach to nutrition. A must-read for anyone who wants to perform well while maintaining a healthy, balanced lifestyle.' – Greg Hackett, LoveReading
