I am not a pro. Why do I need sports nutrition?
Sports nutrition is important for athletes and professionals because it provides a source of energy required to perform the activity. But that doesn’t mean that only a professional sportsperson or an athlete needs this kind of nutrition. Sometimes the diets that are prescribed by the nutritionist are based on daily activity and medical condition; hence sports nutrition is important even if you are not a pro.
The food we eat impacts on our strength, performance, training and recovery. That is why the type of food we eat is important and also the times we eat throughout the day has an impact on our performance levels and our body’s ability to recuperate after exercising.
How are you better than specialized sports nutritionists?
A sports nutritionist would only have a diet prescribed which is based on the strenuous sports activity that you are doing, on the other hand, our heath consultants offer needs and future health management through regulated food intake.
Our nutritionists are highly experienced and prescribe diet plans to all the individuals as per their individual needs and requirements which take care of their nutrition intake well.
How is this different from weight maintenance?
