With a portfolio of clients that has included the Boston Red Sox, Boston Celtics and Olympians from a variety of sports, Nancy Clark, sports nutritionist and nutrition author, will present “Nutrition for Performance: How to Fuel for School, Sports and Life,” on Monday, Feb. 22.

Specializing in nutrition for exercise, health and the nutritional management of eating disorders, Clark is a nutrition columnist and is featured in New England Runner, Adventure Cycling and American Fitness . She is a frequent contributor to Runner’s World and is on the advisory board for SHAPE magazine. Clark also writes a monthly nutrition column called “The Athlete’s Kitchen,” which appears regularly in more than 100 sports and health publications, including Active.com and the Running Network.

Clark has written several best selling sports nutrition books including “Nancy Clark’s Sports Nutrition Guidebook” (Human Kinetics, 2008), “Food Guide for Marathoners: Tips for Everyday Champions” (Meyer & Meyer, 2007) and “Cyclist’s Food Guide: Fueling for the Distance” (Sports Nutrition Publishing, 2005), co-authored with Jenny Hegmann.

A fellow of the American Dietetic Association (ADA), Clark is the recipient of its Media Excellence Award, an active member of ADA’s practice group of sports nutritionists (SCAN), and recipient of SCAN’s Honor Award for excellence in practice. Clark is also a fellow in the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and recipient of the Honor Award from ACSM’s New England Chapter.

Clark studied nutrition at Simmons College in Boston, completed her dietetic internship at Massachusetts General Hospital, and holds a master’s degree in nutrition with a focus on exercise physiology from Boston University.
