Abstract des Autors
This study of 13 male and 14 female members of the US Nordic Ski team was conducted to analyze the nutrient content of their diet. The skiers recorded four sets of three-day dietary data during a year of training and competition. The results showed high caloric intake, as expected. However, fat intake was higher and carbohydrate intake lower than recommended amounts for optimal health and athletic performance. Iron intake by female skiers consistently failed to meet recommended levels, while cholesterol intake exceeded levels considered optimal. Intake of other nutrients reviewed in this report easily met recommended levels. Verf.-Referat
