| Publisher Description: As an athlete, your physical health is key to an active lifestyle. You depend on strength, skill, and endurance, whether you're going for the ball or making that final push across the finish line. Being your best takes time, training, and patience, but that's not all. Like a car, your body won't run without the right fuel. You must take special care to get enough of the calories, vitamins, and other nutrients that provide energy.Athletes require a lot of energy and nutrients to stay in shape. Because of this, strict diet plans can hurt your ability and be harmful to your health. Without the calories from by carbs, fat, and protein, you may not have enough strength. Not eating enough also can lead to malnutrition. Female athletes can have abnormal menstrual cycles. You increase your risk of osteoporosis, a fragile bone condition caused in part from a lack of calcium. Get medical help if you and your coach think you need to lose weight. Be sure to talk to your doctor before making major nutrition changes. |
