Sponsored By: The Almond Board of California

Join us to learn from David Nieman, DrPH, FACSM, leading exercise science expert, as he presents his new research suggesting that almond consumption may promote muscle recovery and reduce fatigue after exercise. Engaging in exercise promotes a healthful lifestyle, but even when performed correctly, exercise causes fatigue and muscle damage. Recovery from exercise is important because it leads to muscle gain and improved fitness over time. In this webinar, Dr. Nieman will discuss the importance of nutrition in recovery from exercise and will share just-published findings on how almond intake may support muscle function, promote muscle recovery and reduce fatigue after physical activity.
