Welcome to the Boom Boom Performance Podcast, your resource for science-based training and nutrition,

data-driven coaching, and education-focused content. Before we get into this podcast, I just want to say

thank you for taking the time to listen and learn with me so that you can apply what you are

about to learn, take my strategies, use these tools, and finally

have some serious methods to see sustainable success with your physique, your mind, and your life.

This podcast was built on the foundation of applied education, and I'm excited for you to be here

so you can have that experience with me. Now without any further ado,

let's get on to the show. Today I have an absolute legend on the podcast, Dr. Susan Kleiner.

Dr. Susan Kleiner wrote Power Eating and that was actually the first textbook, first nutrition book or

manual that actually ever read.

I read it in college when I was 19 years old.

She came and spoke at the college, got to meet her then.

She has now come out with her fifth edition of this book, which I will link in the show notes.

So she is a really, really well read and written sports nutritionist.

She has worked with pro athletes.

She's worked with everyday people. She's done a lot of research in the female athlete and the

female triad and really studying the female metabolism as well as male metabolism and even

natural bodybuilders and how their metabolisms work. She's also a co-founder of the ISSN,

which is something I commonly recommend on this podcast

for you to go look at studies. And you can go to JISN.com to see their journal and really get

access to all these research articles. But Susan is unbelievably intelligent. She was a pleasure

to have on the podcast. We had a great time chatting about all things, nutrition, metabolism. Then we dove into whole grains and why you shouldn't be demonizing whole grains
