Feed Your Family Like an RD with Dr. Kelly Pritchett, PhD, RDN, CSSD | Ep. 61

In this week’s episode we sat down with Dr. Kelly Pritchett to learn nutritional strategies and practices across the family lifespan.  Dr. Pritchett is a Board-Certified Specialist in Sports Dietetics, and an Associate Professor in Nutrition and Exercise Science at Central Washington University where she also acts as the Director of Sports Nutrition.  Her research and clinical work focus around pre- and post-exercise nutrition, energy availability in athletes, thermoregulation, and disordered eating.  She is also a triathlete, wife and mother of three active boys, and a passionate alumna of the University of Alabama.  Dr. Pritchett provided us an excellent look at how we can help develop a healthy relationship with food in ourselves and our kids, the importance of getting the family involved in meals, dealing with picky eaters, as well as some particular eating strategies that we can employ for kids at various stages of their athletic development.  We hope you find the conversation valuable, and thanks for listening!   Follow Kelly Twitter: https://twitter.com/kpritchettrd Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kpritchettrd/?hl=en CWU Sports Nutrition: https://www.instagram.com/cwusportsnutrition/?hl=en Inside Sports Nutrition: https://www.instagram.com/insidesportsnutrition/?hl=en     Mentioned in this episode   Child of Mine by Ellyn Satter: https://amzn.to/3X0F7X2   Nancy Clark’s Sports Nutrition Guidebook: https://amzn.to/3E6P2Se   Dr. AJ McCubbin’s work on Sodium and Sports Nutrition: https://journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/ijsnem/30/1/article-p83.xml   https://journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/ijsnem/29/4/article-p371.xml   If you found this podcast valuable, the best way to say “thank you” is to share it with others and leave us a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.   Want to be a part of the show?
