Nutritional Supplements for Immune Function and Exercise Performance

This workshop will focus on practical nutritional strategies to enhance exercise performance in both clinical and athletic settings, with a particular focus on modulating gut health and inflammation. We will explore the relationship between the gut, immune function and indicators of maladaptation to exercise training in athletes and how research findings in this area translate to practice and clinical disease. The mechanisms of and quality of evidence for a number of nutritional compounds will be discussed including colostrum, probiotics and protein.
