Start to Fitness Feeding the Young Athlete

Thursday, September 25, 7:00-8:00 PM
Held at Mercer Island Community Center, 8236 SE 24th Street, Mercer Island, WA 98040

Meet Cynthia Lair, author, nutrition counselor, professor at Bastyr University and host of the online cooking show, Cookus Interruptus. She will discuss how food and the body work as a team, and how the nutritional aspect of playing sports is the most “fixable” aspect of any athlete’s performance problems. Eating the right food at the right time not only provides the necessary fuel for energy, but sharpens concentration hence preventing injuries.
