Managing Extremes in Hostile Mountain Environments [Dr. Brent Ruby, Pt 1.)-Nutrition
Release Date:
Nutrition demands in the mountains are extreme. Add factors like a heavy pack, varying terrain type, heat, weather, smoke, and you can wind up with nutrition needs that seem more like the calculation for an atoms potential than a calorie calculation.
Luckily for us, Dr. Brent Ruby spent more than 25 years studying this to help us understand exactly how it works. He joints us for two parts- one on nutrition (this one) and the physical demands and training for such tasks in part 2.
