Abstract

The goals of applying nutrition principles to the management of the older athlete are to improve overall health in addition to maximizing athletic performance. Both aging and exercise impact nutritional needs. Dietary advice can encompass current preventive health recommendations without adverse effects for most patients. Healthy weight control and eating patterns that may affect exercise performance are specific nutrition topics of interest to many older athletes. Patients who need individualized diet prescriptions and meal planning may benefit by referral to a registered dietitian. Verf.-Referat
