LATEST ISSUE
WHY THIS EXISTS
Every issue picks one topic, pulls the real research, and gives you an honest take on what it means for athletes
The research most people skip
The peer-reviewed studies behind recovery, nutrition, sleep, and daily habits. The stuff that matters but doesn't make headlines.
Written from inside the locker room
This comes from an active season — bus rides, hotel rooms, the middle of a three-in-three. Not a content studio. Not a desk.
No agenda
Nothing to sell you. If the evidence is strong, you'll hear it. If it's weak or mixed, you'll hear that too.
Who Writes This:
I'm Ethan Edwards — professional hockey player. A few years ago, a single experience with a natural anti-inflammatory changed how I think about recovery. I started pulling research on everything I could find.
I'm not a scientist or a nutritionist. I'm an athlete who got tired of guessing and started looking things up. How I recover and what I put in my body matters — it's my job. This newsletter is where I share what I find.
