About "Sports Nutrition"

Athletes need more strength, power, and endurance to train, so giving the body enough water and a balanced diet is essential. An athlete’s diet should be carefully monitored by a nutritionist, who will form a diet plan depending on the athlete’s age, weight, physical condition, and the type of sports played. Some tips for athletes are:

• Drink small amounts of water at regular intervals.
• Drinking cold beverages will lower the core body temperature and sweating.
• Consume fruits, vegetables, bread, cereal, and rice for carbohydrates, which is the most important source of fuel.
• 12 to 15 % of the daily calories should come from proteins like meat, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy products, and nuts.
• And 20 to 30 % of the daily calories should come from healthy fats.
