Grateful to the Makati Medical Center - Department of Emergency Medicine team for inviting me to speak at the 28th Emergency Medicine Symposium on Fueling the Finish: Translating Physiology into Performance.

It was an energizing panel with Mr. Michael Jorge Peralta (Mikey Bikey PH) and Dr. Reil Espino, where we discussed:
πŸ‹οΈ The importance of periodization in training to keep athletes in peak shape pre-season and in-season.
πŸ›‘οΈ How to prevent injuries through smart fueling and recovery.
πŸ’Š Busting the myths and misconceptions about ergogenic aids like creatine, caffeine, and whey protein.

Here are a few key points I shared from my slides:
βœ… Energy availability is the foundation β€” athletes need fuel left for hormones, immunity, and recovery, not just exercise.
❌ Calories in vs. calories out is not the full story in sports.
⚠️ Supplements are tools, not shortcuts β€” food first, supplements second.
πŸ‘¨β€βš•οΈ Healthcare providers play a vital role in guiding safe and ethical performance enhancement.

Thank you again MMC EM for the chance to share insights on sports nutrition and athlete health! πŸ’ͺ
