We think of those in the world of fitness as exceptionally healthy people, but my next guest is helping to shine a light on an unhealthier aspect of the industry. Nats Levi was working as a fitness trainer when she experienced F.A.T - which is an acronym for Female Athlete Triad. It's a condition where women exercise their body to such an extent that they lose their menstrual cycle, bone density and energy. Nats says she succumbed to the pressure those working in the industry often feel to look their best, but was finally forced to confront what she was doing to her body. She's written a book her experience called 'From F.A.T to Fierce - Solving the Health Puzzle When Your Body is Not Responding'.
