    "If red meat is bad for you, should I stop hunting?" What's true- and what's not about red meat, health, and our hobbies.

    "If red meat is bad for you, should I stop hunting?" What's true- and what's not about red meat, health, and our hobbies.

    “I recently watched a documentary suggesting that meat is the source of all health issues- should I stop hunting?”
     
    This was a question we had on the documentary “What the Health”.  We looked at the main points in the documentary to determine what parts are completely false, what’s not the full story- and what part has some valid points.

    Listener Q&A Part 2: why calorie density for trail nutrition is a waste of time (PLUS: picking a bar for the backcountry and differences between liquid vs solid nutrition fuel).

    Mike and I continue our conversation this week in part two of the listener Q&A.  In this, we dive into a host of topics that will help give answers to questions you may have had about for peak performance on and off the trails.  We look at:
    Why aiming for calorie-density for trail nutrition is a waste of time.  
    Backcountry nutrition strategies and differences from home nutrition.
    We explore how the variables of mileage, intensity, and temperature can impact our nutritional needs.
    Wee look at how to utilize tools like MyFitnessPal accurately.
    Whether you are finding your way in mountain nutrition or at home, Mike's questions delivers some great and insightful lessons.

    Bonus: Lessons from the Ladies

    Bonus: Lessons from the Ladies

    Over 75% of the Valley to Peak audience is men- a huge following.  So, why in the world would I choose to do an episode ‘for the ladies?  Because many of you have told the women in your life about Valley to Peak (thank you!).  
     
    We also started to see that many of the women we talked to all had the same questions...the same goals...and the same struggles.  Who better to filter those questions through than two women who have shared the struggle, faced it, and been successful?
     
    Plus, what better way to say 'thanks' to the women in our life on Women's Day in 2024 than an episode dedicated to them?

    Q&A (with one of you!): Part 1: "What's the ACTUAL truth With Artificial Sweeteners?"

    Q&A (with one of you!): Part 1: "What's the ACTUAL truth With Artificial Sweeteners?"

    "You said the concerns with artificial sweeteners are overrated...how is that possible?"
     
    Part 1: I'm joined by a listen of the show- Mike Tennant- to talk through something I said WAY back in Episode 34.  In this, we tackle ALL things related to artificial sweaters. 
     
    Why did I make that comment?
    What does science say about them?
    Why does it seem like everyone who eats them is overweight if they're so 'healthy'?
    Isn't it better to just have the "real" thing?
    We tackle all of this and more.

Ozark Hunter ,

Go-to podcast for backcountry nutrition

V2P nutrition podcast is my go-to source for accessible information on nutrition and fueling strategies pertaining to backcountry hunting and backpacking in general. Kyle provides very applicable and helpful information that is easy to understand and incorporate into your nutrition strategy.

Great Info

Keep up the good work! I learn so much every time I listen, more importantly I think I come away asking more questions for myself than I had going in. I mean that in a good way. In other words it’s impossible for you to give specific advise to me but you give the knowledge and tools to ask the right questions for me and general how to find the answers. Thank you!

Highly Recommend

Excellent practical information that’s easy to understand and implement.

My daughter is a dietician/nutritionist and she says Kyle’s podcast information hits the bullseye every time.
