Payal Shah Nutrition

Payal Shah Nutrition Nutrition for me is not just work, it's a passion that has always been with me for over 10 years. My inspiration: my kids who love to play sports.

Spreading awareness about the benefits of good nutrition to athletes, from grassroots to pros is my mission.

Save this reel to avoid the digestive disasters that ruin a swim session. Because swimming involves horizontal movement and hydrostatic pressure, your digestion works differently than it does on land.

Avoiding
- Carbonated drinks that cause painful gas traps
- High-fat dairy that leads to acid reflux, and
- Spicy foods that cause mid-stroke discomfort.

Instead, opt for low-fiber simple carbohydrates like a banana or white toast sixty minutes before you dive in.

These choices provide immediate energy without the bloating or heaviness that slows down your flip turns and stroke rate.
Could you please share this with your swim team to ensure everyone stays fast and comfortable in the water?

If you're vegetarian or vegan, Edamame is your plant-based recovery cheat code. As a nutritionist, I highlight it because it's a complete protein, providing all nine essential amino acids needed for muscle repair. One cup delivers eighteen grams of high-quality protein and eight grams of gut-healthy fiber, making it vastly superior to sugary protein bars. Simply steam the pods for five minutes for the perfect post-training snack that keeps you full and aids recovery.
