Episode 84 Jennifer Kurtz PhD - Enhancing Endurance: The Role of Quercetin

Sports Science Dudes

Unlock the secrets of sports nutrition with Dr. Jennifer Kurtz from Appalachian State University, as she takes us on a journey into the world of quercetin, a powerful plant pigment. Discover how quercetin found in everyday foods like citrus fruits, elderberries, and onions, can potentially enhance athletic performance by managing inflammation and oxidative stress.
About our guest:

Dr. Kurtz holds a Ph.D. in Kinesiology with a concentration in Exercise Physiology and Nutrition from Georgia State University and both her M.S. in Health and Human Performance and B.S. in Exercise Science from Georgia College and State University. Dr. Kurtz teaches several courses, including Exercise Physiology and Nutritional Aspects of Exercise and Sports.

Her research focuses on physiological and nutritional interventions in sports performance, emphasizing nutrient timing, ergogenic aids, and preventative nutrition. She also explores hormonal impacts on metabolism, resistance training, and high-intensity interval training. Dr. Kurtz is affiliated with several professional organizations, including the International Society of Sports Nutrition, where she is a Certified Sports Nutritionist, and the American College of Sports Medicine as a Certified Exercise Physiologist. Additionally, she has published extensively on topics like quercetin’s effects on performance, nutrient timing, and sports nutrition.
