🌍 Climate change is the single biggest health threat facing humanity. At @physoc we are focused on understanding how the impacts of climate change will impact the health of us all, with particular focus on vulnerable populations. As the science of how the body works, physiology explains the impact of climate change on our health and productivity, and therefore, the very future of our species. Find out more about our recommendations for health at COP29: physoc.org/policy/climate-ch…

If you live in the USA you can get it direct from Human Kinetics. If you are ordering from Amazon, it will take about 10 days or so for it be released at Amazon (US) and a little longer for Amazon UK. Thank you for your patience. By the end of this month it should be in shops
Just released! This new edition of Sport Nutrition by @jeukendrup and @profmikegleeson is the ideal book to provide a comprehensive understanding of nutrition as it relates to sport, exercise performance, training, and recovery. ecs.page.link/aLZ5p #sportnutrition
