The microbiome is an aspect of nutrition that often gets overlooked, especially in the athletic community. However, our bodies have co-evolved with thousands of species of bacteria, to the point where we now rely on their function to optimise our health. Providing your microbiome with the proper nutrients can have vast implications on your health and your ability to achieve peak performance.

Ultra-endurance refers to your body’s capacity to sustain exercise for a very long time period. It is mainly determined by the body’s ability to generate and utilise energy through multiple metabolic processes. Ultra-endurance is growing in popularity, with events that last hours, days, and even weeks becoming more common in the athletic and recreational fields.

Endurance refers to your body’s capacity to sustain exercise for an extended period. It is determined largely by the ability to distribute oxygen around the body and utilise it for energy production within the muscles. Many sporting disciplines require an endurance component, and in many cases, it is the key determinant for success.

Strength and power are two terms that generally refer to short, explosive exercise efforts. They are essential components of many sports, and athletes often develop specialised training to maximise their efficiency. Many metabolic processes contribute to strength and power, and utilising relevant nutritional concepts can help to maximise force production.

Our move to an entirely Plant-based meal range is a step forward in our journey to develop nutritional products of the highest quality. At Radix, our priority is to create products that optimise metabolic health and performance. In order to achieve this, we’ve worked through an extensive development process, taking into consideration the quality, nutrient density, flavour, texture, and convenience of every meal. During this development phase, we realised our plant-based products were outperforming our meat-based products in almost all key areas.

Protein is an essential nutrient that mainly serves as the “building blocks” for the cells in our bodies. It is a broad term that accounts for a vast number of molecules. Protein structures are made up of combinations of 21 smaller molecules, called amino acids. Aside from structural and functional roles, protein can also be broken down to function as a source of energy

Damian Browne and Fergus Farrell are attempting one of the hardest challenges on the planet. Termed “Project Empower”, their goal is to break the world record for the unsupported pairs row across the North Atlantic from New York City to Galway.

Jemima Montag is an Australian race walker who won Gold in the 20km walk at the 2018 Commonwealth Games and finished 6th at the 2022 Tokyo Olympic.
We discuss the nutritional demands of elite sport with Jemima Montag, as well as why she chooses Radix Nutrition to help her fuel her success.

We are excited to launch the most effective, technologically advanced protein powder on the market. Since our conception, we have been providing nutritionally superior meals and recovery smoothies designed to support the specific needs of athletes’ bodies’. We have been fuelling Olympic Athletes and Extreme Adventures

Macronutrients are the nutrients that the body requires in larger amounts to function every day. These include carbohydrates, protein and fat. Fibre is also often categorised as an additional macronutrient. Although correctly speaking, it is a form of carbohydrate and can still be included.

Everyone wants to feel their best daily, although it's no secret recovery is one of the last things we prioritise when life gets busy. Proper recovery is essential to optimise our health and performance. We can give our bodies the best chance to perform better, recovery fast, and live healthier with great nutrition.

Whole foods are those that have either no processing or undergone minimal processing. Examples include whole grains, legumes, fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. In most instances, these are foods you will recognise in their natural form, with a perishable date, and without a list of preservatives and additives.
