Addresses the quality, quantity, and type of fat and protein intake as it relates to exercise and sports. This book offers information on fatty acids, including omegas-3 and -6 and alpha-linoleic acids, and protein and amino acid supplements (creatine, glutamine, and whey). It is suitable for nutritionists, and fitness professionals.
It is well known that fats, proteins, and carbohydrates are all energy-yielding nutrients that influence health and physical performance. Yet many recreational, collegiate, and professional athletes still consume more fats, saturated fats, and cholesterol than is recommended, as well as inappropriate amounts of proteins.

The book also focuses on proteins and the amounts, types, and combinations of selected supplements and their role in performance. Well-researched articles analyze whey, soy, and casein proteins; select amino acids such as creatine, glutamine, and branched-chain; and other beneficial supplements. The book concludes with a discussion of recommended intakes of the energy-yielding nutrients and, more importantly, recommended proportions of carbohydrates to fats to proteins.
