Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) who specializes in bariatric nutrition therapy and weight loss. She graduated from Western Illinois University and has worked as a nutritionist at MultiCare Health Systems and Veterans Affairs.

“I’m focused on data over dogma!”

“…80% of chronic conditions can be prevented or delayed…”

-Carlee Hayes

In today’s episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, Brian and Christine have an awesome conversation with Carlee Hayes. Joining the show from Washington state, Carlee discusses how her frustration with the reactive world of nutrition and medicine lead her to join forces with a start-up tech company called NutriSense. Carlee, who currently serves as the company’s lead registered dietitian nutritionist, delves into the fascinating new world of wearables that she believes are key to improving metabolic health. “Continuous glucose monitoring, or CGM, is a 14-day patch that attaches to the back of your arm. It relays 24/7 data about your glucose levels to an APP on your phone.”  Carlee also discusses how this new technology developed by NutriSense may be the key to prevent or even delay the onset of various chronic conditions that are linked to the body’s inability to regulate glucose levels. And if that’s not enough, listen up athletes and runners!  You are going to fall in love with this new wearable that can help to track glucose levels to determine your individualized plan for optimal hydration and nutrition for all your future adventures! Let’s use data over dogma and take control over our health!

Gail also discusses what it was like to be raised by an Indian mother and English father who believed that paying it forward was a way of life. And if you were wondering, Gail was an exceptionally talented runner in her day who just happens to hail from a some very decorated Bannisters, including distant uncle Sir Roger, the first man to run a mile in under 4 minutes and one super-fast nephew, Olympic Gold medalist Matthew Centrowitz Jr.

From training the JETS to being flown around-the-country to work with top NBA players, Gail has made quite a name for herself as a flexibility specialist. I guarantee you will have a few laughs listening to Gail share some of her crazy stories of working with pro-athletes and beyond!
