Welcome to episode ONE HUNDRED of The Eat for Endurance Podcast! Woohoo!
I’m excited to share my interview with Melissa Azzaro, RDN LD aka The Hormone Dietitian about how to get better sleep. Melissa and I talked for over 90 minutes about a TON of different factors that impact sleep, including nutrients, eating patterns, supplements, lifestyle behaviors, and more.

Sleep is a huge and complicated topic, and sleep problems are often linked back to numerous things.

Here are some of the things we highlighted:

  • Why hormone imbalances, including during perimenopause and times of low energy availability, lead to sleep issues
  • What types of dietary habits and patterns impact sleep quality and quantity
  • How eating enough, and including enough carbs, is so important for sleep
  • Why drinking alcohol is doing you no favors in the sleep department
  • The effects of caffeine on sleep and differences among indiviudals
  • Herbal and nutrient supplements that may improve sleep
  • How exercise can affect sleep, especially relating to timing
  • Other lifestyle factors that impact sleep (e.g. light, temperature, etc)
  • And so much more!

When thinking about how to get better sleep, your best bet is to start with some basic, foundational things. Listen to the episode for some recs and ideas!
Just a heads up - this conversation has large sections that are mostly focused on women, whether it’s talking about hormonal shifts and symptoms during perimenopause or relating to PCOS, or about other female-specific challenges. This is partly because Melissa is a women's health dietitian!
But don’t worry, we cover many things that are relevant to everyone too. I hope you enjoy the episode!
