Nutrition for injured athletes

Poor nutrition can lead to conditions that increase the risk of injury. But injuries are often an unavoidable
aspect when participating in any physical activity. An injury can be particularly distressing for the eating-
disordered athlete. Psychological support is important. No change in diet is necessary when a quick
recovery is expected.
There is a need in modification of food intake when an injury limits activity for less than a week. The need
to reduce food intake is necessary to meet lower energy needs, if recovery is expected to take longer
than a week. Long-term recovery may require an absolute reduced diet.
Surgical trauma, fever, or infection requires dietary changes. In these cases, protein intake should be
increased during the early stages of recovery, because proteins repair damaged tissues.
Protein is important for immune function. If a slow recovery is expected, the injury might cause significant
emotional stress. Fear, anxiety, and anger are all typical reactions to injury. These emotions can increase
the secretion of epinephrine (adrenaline) from the adrenal gland. This in turn can cause a series of
metabolic changes that result in increased loss of nitrogen (protein) through the urine.
In general, the importance of psychological support for injured athletes varies depending on length of
recovery and injury severity. Anxiety about the injury might lead to increased food cravings, more free
time and less structure in the daily routine can lead to boredom and increases opportunities to eat more
and it may result in weight gain. Some injured athletes simply do not adjust their energy needs and
continue to follow their typical training diet.

Nutritional need while travelling

Maintaining good nutritional practices while travelling to and from events may affect an athlete's health
and athletic success.
A slightly lower carbohydrate and higher protein intake for strength athletes (40-48% carbohydrate, 20-
26% protein, and 34% fat),stress the importance of eating natural and whole foods.
Sports nutrition experts recommend that athletes should have multiple small meals per day (five or six
feedings). Travelling with snacks helps to ensure that caloric needs are being met, despite unpredictable
travel delays. Fresh vegetables and fruits, fruit smoothies, energy bars, nuts, bagels, and raisins are
suggested to carry while travelling.

Q) Which of the following leads to higher risk of injury?

Eating disorders

Excessive travelling
