Food First - correct answer ✔✔-achieve optimal with food, supplement minimally with defined need
-food is rich in many things that we don't even know how they benefit us
Optimize - correct answer ✔✔-optimal nutrient is taking enough but not too much
-gov definition of benefit vs. athlete definition of benefit
, Individualize - correct answer ✔✔-optimal nutrition is highly variable based on individual and context

balanced with food variability (including foods with lots of different colors)
Unstable Nutrients - correct answer ✔✔-water and carbs are the most unstable nutrients (can change
rapidly with little reserves) and thus need to be a focus for athletes
***the body doesn't store a lot of carbs because it is stored as glycogens, in order to dissolve it (a lot of
carbs stored = a lot of water stored)***
Stable Nutrients - correct answer ✔✔-stable nutrients (do not change rapidly) also affect performance
(lutein, iron, creatine) but need long term consistent intake to achieve optimal
Don't Worry - correct answer ✔✔in many cases, elevated nutrient needs of athletes are met by their
increased food intake assuming consumption of a high quality diet. sport nutrition research seeks to
identify exceptions
Nutrition - correct answer ✔✔the total of the processes of ingestion, digestion, absorption, and
metabolism of food; assimilation of nutrient materials into tissues
Nutrients - correct answer ✔✔perform one or more physiological or biochemical functions in the body
(something the body needs, has a specific role)
