THE PERFORMANCE NUTRITIONIST
meet Shantih Coro
Welcome to Fight Fuel Nutritionist! I’m Shantih Coro, and I’m passionate about helping athletes achieve their highest potential through tailored performance nutrition and support. With a background steeped in professional sports, strength and conditioning, performance nutrition, and personal training, I bring over 30 years of experience to the table, specializing in helping elite athletes reach their full potential through performance nutrition and lifestyle interventions.
My Journey
HOW ALL STARTED
My journey began with a deep passion for sports and a commitment to uncovering the science behind athletic performance. Originally from Genova, Italy, and now based in Naples, Florida, I’ve built a career that blends my love for traditional Mediterranean cuisine, my experience as a lifelong athlete, and a strong foundation in professional sports. With a diverse background in athletics, martial arts, strength and conditioning, and performance nutrition—alongside my own journey of recovery from Crohn’s disease—I bring a unique perspective on optimizing health, performance, and recovery.
