3. •Dietary supplements are not intended to be used as a food or as a sole
item of ameal or diet.
•In a study of NCAA athletes at a Division I university, Froiland et al.
(2005) reported that 23% of the athletes take dietary supplements
atleast5 times aweek
•73% of theathletestakeenergy drinks (Gatorade,Red bull)

5. •Body carbohydrate stores provide an important fuel
sourcefor thebrainandmuscle duringexercise
•Optimal performance is achieved in competitive events
or training by modifying the timing, amount and type of
carbohydrate food and drinks according to the demands
of thesession and theindividual needs of theathlete.
•Optimal diet benefits include improved and consistent
performance, enhanced recovery, ideal body weight and
composition, andreduced risk of injury

6. •A carbohydrate rich meal or snack 1-2 hours prior to
exercise can provide a good fuel source to meet the
demands of generalexercise.
•During shorter periods of exercise (less than 45
minutes), carbohydrate intake during exercise is not
considered tobe necessary
•Carbohydrate-rich foods with a moderate to high
glycemic index is recommended for a post-exercise meal,
the most readily available source for muscle glycogen
synthesis

10. •Protein is one of the most popular dietary
supplements marketed to athletes and physically-
activeindividuals.
•Recommended to increase muscle mass, to prevent
protein catabolism during prolonged exercise, to
promote muscle glycogen resynthesis following
exercise, andtoprevent sports anemia
•Resistance athletes need 1.6–1.7g protein/kg body
weight while endurance athletes need approximately
1.2–1.4g/kg

11. •Whey and colostrum are two forms of protein that
aretheorizedtobe ergogenic.
•A significant effect of colostrum supplementation
wasfound on a 50-meter sprinttime.
•Ingestion of whey protein after exercise resulted in
increase in muscle protein net balance, resulting in net
muscle protein synthesis

Product description: Uses pureWhey Protein Isolates as the primaryingredient. Combined with ultra-filtered whey protein
concentrate, each serving provides 24 grams ofall-whey protein and5.5 grams ofnaturallyoccurring BCAAs which areprizedby
athletes fortheir muscle building qualities.
14. •Amino acids enhance performance by increasing
secretion of anabolic hormones, modifying fuel use
during exercise, preventing adverse effects of
overtraining,andpreventing mentalfatigue.
•Leucine, isoleucine, and valine called Branched-chain
Amino Acids (BCAAs) helps in muscle growth, protect
glycogen stores, increasing fat burn and reduce muscle
soreness
•Glutamine promotes muscle glycogen synthesis,
enhancesmuscularstrength.(considered ergogenic)
•Arginine is a substrate for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis,
a potent endogenous vasodilator that may benefit
bloodflowandendurancecapacity.

15. •Providing an ample supply of essential amino acids to
the muscle within 1–3 hours following exercise may help
tofurthermuscle proteinsynthesis.
•0.1 gram of essential amino acids per kilogram of body
weight (7 grams for a 70-kilogram athlete) during the 1st
few hours of recovery from heavy resistance exercise
produce a transient, net positive increase in muscle
proteinbalance.
•Small amounts of amino acids, combined with
carbohydrates, can transiently increase muscle protein
anabolism

17. •Creatine is chemically known as a non-protein nitrogen;
acompound whichcontainsnitrogenbutis not aprotein
•It is synthesized in the liver and pancreas from the amino
acids arginine,glycine, and methionine
•Creatine monohydrate is the most effective ergogenic
nutritional supplement to increase high-intensity exercise
capacityandlean body mass during training.
•Recommendation- 0.3 grams/kg/day of creatine
monohydrate for at least 3 days followed by 3–5 g/d
thereaftertomaintainelevated stores

18. •Vitamins function in the human body as metabolic regulators,
influencing a number of physiological processes important to
exercise or sport performance
•Many of the B-complex vitamins are involved in processing
carbohydrate and fats for energy production, form hemoglobin in
RBC that helps in oxygen delivery to the muscles during aerobic
enduranceexercise.
•Vitamins C and E function as antioxidants, important for preventing
oxidative damage to cellular and sub cellular structure and function
during exercise training

39. •Improving public information about use of dietary
supplements involves investments in professional training
programs, further studies of population and nutrient needs,
expanding the database information, enhancing
collaborations between governments and universities, and
translating dietary supplement research into useful
information for consumers, health professionals, scientists,
andpolicymakers.
•Future demonstration of efficacy from use of dietary
supplements requires high-quality clinical research using
rigorously-qualified products and compliance with
established guidelines for reporting of clinical trialresults
