I can’t tell you how many times, all is going well and then when I ramp up my marathon training, I seem to get sick. It’s usually something like a cold or in the most severe cases, more like the flu.
Guess what? According to David C. Newman, Dr. P.H., FACSM, who is a professor and director of the Human Performance Laboratory at Appalachian State University in Boone, NC, there’s a reason for this bad-timed bug. “During periods of heavy training, the immune system reflects the physiological stress experienced by the athlete, and illness rates climb.” So, that old saying “Too much of a good thing, can be bad.” is true!

Newman says that making sure you’re eating a balanced diet during this time is the best way to provide support for the immune system in its fight against viruses and bacteria. Research shows that vitamin and mineral supplements don’t really boost your immunity above normal levels, so why spend that extra money on bland tasting pills? Just eat a good diet. This basically supports my thinking in a recent post, “Supplement the Natural Way…Eat!” Continue reading 'Train hard, stay healthy!'»
