RED-S: Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport is a co $RED-S: Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport is a condition that occurs when an athlete‘s nutritional fueling is insufficient to meet the demands of their training and daily activities. Essentially, the “energy in” is less than the “energy out.” This energy imbalance can impact multiple areas of the body, including: endocrine, metabolic, hematologic, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and immune systems. It also affects psychological health. Athletes with RED-S might exhibit a variety of symptoms, including: *Frequent injuries: Repeated stress fractures, muscle strains and other injuries *Delayed recovery: A harder time healing from injuries, taking longer to recover. *Fatigue: Persistent tiredness and inability to recover from training sessions. *Hormonal effects: For female athletes, irregular or loss of menstrual periods. For men, a hypogonadal state results in lower testosterone and decreased libido. *Decreased performance: A noticeable decline in athletic performance such as running slower, reduced endurance, and impaired agility and coordination, despite rigorous training. *Mood changes: Irritability, depression and anxiety. *Gl issues: Frequent stomach problems, such as bloating and constipation. Frequent illness: Recurrent colds or increased rate of “getting sick.” With RED-S, your body is not receiving the proper amount of fuel for the demands placed upon it. Initially, a caloric deficit can bring about seemingly positive changes such as weight loss, increased energy and PR's in the gym. If this continues for too long, then shit may happen. This used to be considered only a "female issue" because of amenorrhea (loss of period), but this condition is present with different signs/symptoms in men and in post-menopausal women. Many times people don't recognize the signs. Long term implications may include: poor bone health, hormone imbalance, impaired metabolic and cardiovascular health. If you have any concerns this may be you - please contact your physician. A team approach of nutritionist/dietician, physician and mental health provider can get you back on track.
