More and more adults over 35 participate actively in athletics. Additionally, older adults are increasingly encouraged to pursue athletics for reasons of health and wellness. There is a growing need, therefore, for sports nutrition and physiology texts that focus on this population in detail, and not simply as a subset of a field that has been primarily oriented towards younger athletes. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSports Nutrition for Masters Athletes \u003c\/i\u003emeets this need with an intensive, evidence-based approach to the nutritional needs of athletes over the age of 35. Alert to the importance of diet in performance and the requirements of older athletes, the book offers a robust toolkit for maintaining athletic performance with age while adjusting for physiologic changes. The result is an essential contribution to a growing field of research and clinical practice. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSports Nutrition for Masters Athletes \u003c\/i\u003ereaders will also find: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e An overview of physiological changes associated with the aging process and their impact on performance.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Detailed insights into the relationship between nutrition and the mitigation of the inflammatory process.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Coverage of subjects including the determination of caloric and nutrient needs, dietary strategies, and many more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSports Nutrition for Masters Athletes \u003c\/i\u003eis ideal for those pursuing education in nutrition, exercise science, exercise physiology, health and wellness, and physical education.
