Hi guys! This is the first podcast episode with Casey Thomas, a performance dietician. I worked with him at 100 Thieves and his knowledge of how nutrition intersects with esports performance is incredible. In this snippet, we are talking specifically about the impact of hydration on our cognitive performance. We have caffeine and L-theanine coming up in the next episode, so watch out for that. The next time Casey and I sit down we will talk about game-day nutrition protocols--what can make your performance sink or swim on the big day! Please ask questions in the comments as I will be talking to Casey often and we'd love to discuss your ideas. 00:00 Introduction 02:25 The Worst Diet Casey Ever Tried 07:40 Defining Performance 11:33 Hydration 14:01 Dehydration 15:45 Study on Hydration in Students Sitting Exam 16:45 Common Habits In Gamers That Cause Dehydration 24:40 Water vs Other Forms of Hydration 27:35 When We Are Thirsty We Are Already Dehydrated 1HP: Physical and Nutritional services: @CaseyThomasRD on Twitter --------------------- If you enjoy my content and want to discuss it with other like-minded individuals, check out my public discord channel: You can support me by sharing my content, subscribing or following me on any of my platforms.
