F-Talks #08 | Francis Holway: Nutrición deportiva

In this episode of F-Talks, we chat with Francis Holway, one of the most respected sports nutritionists in the country and one of the clearest voices when it comes to separating science from noise. We talk about things that no one explains well: – Why so many people are confused about food – How to think about nutrition without falling into extremes – What habits truly change your health and performance – How to make simple decisions that bring order to your life – The role of culture, environment, and food education – Why science is a tool, not a weapon to get likes If you're looking to understand what to eat, why, and what for, this talk will help you get your ideas straight. No magic formulas. No myths. No fluff.
