Integrative sports nutrition is a subsect of the nutrition field which examines health and athletic performance from a holistic approach. Nutritionists help clients to eat and life in a way  that reduces stress, manages inflammation, and promotes more robust sleep. Through a real food diet that is personalized to the client's unique needs and goals, our clients are able to look, feel, and play their best without negatively impacting their well-being and long-term health.

A solid nutritional foundation complements your training and athletic performance by allowing your body to recover more optimally, repair muscles, and prevent injury. A proper fueling plan is imperative to achieving mental clarity for sharper focus, as well as efficient and full digestion. Nutrition allows athletes to feel nourished, light, and ready to conquer their competition. 

After all, training only gets you so far. Nutrition is the missing key to unlock your greatest potential. 

While we are most known for our work as Team Nutritionists for the Chicago Blackhawks and Rockford IceHogs, as well as other professional athletes and elite athlete prospects, we have a wide range of clients from aspiring youth athletes to fitness fanatics.

For more than 30 years, SportFuel’s expertise has helped shape the application of sports nutrition. When founder Julie Burns debuted her individualized, real-food approach to sports nutrition in Chicago in the ‘90s, it was met with doubt and disapproval from her peers. Today, personalized performance nutrition is the gold standard upon which the sports industry rests. SportFuel has paved the way for athletes everywhere to stay on top of their game––and competition––while reaching their unique goals through a scientific and customized nutritional approach.

The SportFuel Team cannot make specific product recommendations to non-clients, however we do believe that people can benefit from real food products, such as The Sportfuel Bar and  Sportfuel Greens, as well as micronutrient supplementation. You can find SportFuel®-recommended daily supplements for competing athletes and non-competing athletes at the SportFuel® Store. 

All pro athlete supplements and products can be found on the SportFuel Store. Active SportFuel® clients receive 15% discount on all products at the SportFuel Store and gain access to SportFuel’s health dispensaries.
