Abstract in brief

  • The American Dietetic Association, Dietitians of Canada, and the American College of Sports Medicine agree that optimal nutrition enhances physical activity, athletic performance, and recovery, focusing on food, fluid intake, timing, and supplements.
  • The position emphasizes the importance of meeting energy, carbohydrate, and protein needs during high activity times to support body weight, replenish glycogen, and repair tissues, while also ensuring sufficient fats for essential nutrients and energy.
  • Athletes should eat and hydrate appropriately before, during, and after exercise to maintain blood sugar, support performance, and improve recovery, but body weight and composition should not be used as performance measures, and daily weigh-ins are discouraged.]

@ninaforskno @forskningno 1. Vegetarkost egner seg godt også for de som driver med idrett, noe både forsking (Rodriguez et al., Barr SI et al.) og tallrike utøvere har vist. Dette gjelder ikke bare for mosjonister og hobbyutøvere, men også for de som satser i eliteklassen. https://t.co/EZ5A8iyRY8
