In this episode of the AT Last Podcast, we welcome Dr. Tim Noakes—world-renowned exercise scientist, physician, and founder of the Noakes Foundation, to challenge some of the deepest-held beliefs in sports medicine.Dr. Noakes takes us through the history of hydration practices in endurance sports, from the days when marathoners didn’t drink water mid-race to the rise of sports drink sponsorships and industry-driven “science.” He explains how misconceptions about dehydration, performance, and heat stroke were shaped more by business interests than by evidence, and why athletes actually evolved to perform under fluid deficits.The conversation explores the broader implications of hydration myths: how sugar-laden sports drinks contribute to obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes, and why critical thinking is essential when science, money, and health collide. Drawing on decades of research and experience, Dr. Noakes equips both athletes and clinicians with evidence-based strategies to rethink hydration and prioritize true performance and health.-AT L.A.S.T.Website: WeAreATLast.orgEmail: [email protected]: https://secure.givelively.org/donate/athletic-trainers-leveraging-activism-for-social-transformationLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/at-l-a-s-tInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/atlastpod35% OFF Thorne Products compliments of http://raincrosshp.com/ go to https://thor.ne/Ch2Uc20% OFF Xcelerated Recovery products: Code Rain20: https://xrscience.org/Artwork by Jason Eisenberg Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dots_and_squares/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasoneisenberg00/Music by Willie B the Ichiban DonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ichibandon/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/william-brown-25945b168/Production / Engineering / Editing / Content Creation by Gerson SandovalWebsite: www.davyrover.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/davy.rover/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gersonsandovalengineer/-GuestWebsite: https://thenoakesfoundation.org/
