This time, Energia Ülekanne welcomed nutrition counselor Krete Junson. Energia Ülekanne is a podcast focusing primarily on where energy comes from, what we can do to have more of it in our lives, and what we should avoid doing so that it does not disappear. Since Krete is undoubtedly one of the most energetic people in all of Tartu, she is absolutely the right person to have as a guest.
Besides being a nutrition counselor, Krete is the recreational sports manager at the University of Tartu Academic Sports Club and a doctoral student at the University of Tartu. She is also a coach and trains actively herself. Krete’s doctoral research focuses on the nutrition of elite athletes and coaches—in other words, how to get the absolute most out of nutrition to achieve excellent results. The current impression is that the people who should be the greatest experts on nutrition may not actually be so, and even they may have gaps in their general knowledge. So what does that mean for the average person?
In the podcast, we discussed how eating white bread and pasta is not actually harmful to your health. We answered questions such as how to eat more without gaining weight and what snacks to serve when you want to enjoy gin and tonics with friends while keeping things as healthy as possible. Of course, we also discussed what a nutrition counselor is and who can be considered one. We also touched on the University of Tartu Academic Sports Club’s plans for the future—namely, how to get Tartu residents off the sofa and into the sports club.
