In this episode, Dr. Kyle Gillett returns a third time to explore with me the growing issue of Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S), how it affects athletes' performance and overall health, and strategies to mitigate its impacts.

We also touch on the influence of social media on health perceptions, the effectiveness of red light therapy for recovery and sleep, and the recent buzz linking high-mileage running to colon cancer.
