IN THE SPOTLIGHT: LEADERS IN SCIENCE

Unit Nutrition interviews Dr. Louise Burke, OAM to take a deep dive into carb-rinsing and sports nutrition over the years, and what’s to come in the future.

Question 7: What’s the next frontier in sports nutrition?

"I think the brains got a lot more that we can do to make use of its power to tell us how fast we can go and how well we can do things and it turns out there's quite a few nutrients or other constituents in food that also react with brain function. We’ve got menthol that allows us to feel cooler, which could be really useful in a hot environment like Tokyo. There's the bitter sensation that's often used with Quinine that gives you a flight or flight experience, that sudden shock where you sort of find another gear that you didn't think you have. We think we can mouth sense with caffeine. 13:50 // 14:19 So I think the brain is an untapped organ in terms of sports performance. We’ve spent most of the last 40 years looking at what the muscle needs but we forget that we are whole human beings, and we’ve got a head on top of our muscles that often directs the traffic in terms of our sports performance. So there are things we can do to exploit the brain and the nutrient interactions with the brain. I think that's going to be a big news concept in sports nutrition for at least the next couple of decades."
