Many people will do anything to have bulging muscles and leaner bodies. Supplements are a broad category, with many types and forms. They are taken to build stronger and bigger muscles, as well as to burn fat to lose weight. Supplements have one definite thing in common – all are drugs. The supplement industry seemingly provides a simple solution to the common stress of becoming better: take a pill or add a scoop of powder to your drink. However, this “easy” answer is not so safe.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Many supplements across the board are not approved by the NCAA due to their ingredients and potential safety. Athletes nationwide can lose scholarships and the ability to play because of unknowingly consuming a substance that happened to be in a supplement. Not only are some supplements detrimental to one’s athletic career, but also to overall health. Medications are sent to the liver when consumed in the human body. Taking supplements puts more stress on the liver, and can cause serious liver damage. Other side effects are possible, which can be as serious as death. Consider who formulates and markets these products. Some of the people who create supplements have had multiple criminal lawsuits and charges against them because of unsafe products and results/side effects from taking these medications. One designer of popular supplements (discussed in <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/07/25/bodybuilding-supplement-designer-matt-cahill-usa-today-investigation/2568815/" target="_blank"><b><span style="font-size: large;">this video</span></b></a>) had to lie about his profession (he said he was a construction worker) in order to purchase compounds he wanted to use for his product. If this isn’t a red flag, nothing is.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Sometimes, supplements may be recommended for certain situations. However, it is important to ensure that they are safe, effective, and NCAA approved. If you are an athlete or even a typical student, consult your sports dietitian, athletic trainer, or local RD to figure out what is safe and best for you.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br

class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">People often find themselves stressed out on travel days. A way to minimize this stress and help eliminate it is to make smart choices when it comes to food. Unnecessary calories are packed into the foods offered in the airport and even on the plane. Below are five tips to avoid consuming unhealthy foods and improve your eating while traveling.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">1.<span style="font-size: 7pt;"> </span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b>Eat Breakfast!</b><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Most of you know by now that you should always eat breakfast. It is one of the most important meals of the day for a reason – it kick starts your metabolism and improves bodily functions, physical and mental. Eating breakfast, whether it be eggs and toast or just a piece of fruit, can help you throughout the day. Making sure you are at your best on travel day is important for keeping track of tickets, boarding passes, times, etc.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">2.<span style="font-size: 7pt;"> </span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b>Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate</b><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Staying hydrated is extremely important when traveling, regardless of the method of transportation. Water is the best choice when it comes to drinks, however teas, juices, and flavored water work just as well (make sure you watch the sugar!). Other beverages such as sodas and specialty coffee drinks are not the best choice. Water helps you stay alert and focused, as well as aid in relieving common travel issues like headaches and fatigue.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in;"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">3.<span style="font-size: 7pt;"> </span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b>What to Avoid at the Airport</b><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The airport is full of temptations when it comes to food, especially if you have a long layover. Although the massive cinnamon rolls and fried chicken may taste fantastic, the results of consuming these foods are not. The obvious “unhealthy” foods, as you know, are packed with calories. For example, the Cinnabon Classic Cinnamon Roll has 880 calories alone. If you are on a 2,500 calorie-per-day diet, that one food right there is 35% of your daily intake. Thirty five percent may not sound like too much, but it has 36 grams of fat, 127 grams of carbohydrates, and only 13 grams of protein. Avoid foods that are comprised of empty calories: common fast food items, creamy soups and salad dressings, specialty coffee drinks, ice creams, and snacks like potato chips, cheese curls, and candy.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">4.<span style="font-size: 7pt;"> </span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b>What to Choose Instead</b><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Many airports have healthier places to grab a quick snack or to enjoy a nice meal. If you are running short on time in the morning and can’t eat breakfast at home, choose a breakfast that is filling and satisfying. The key to a great meal is carbohydrates plus protein. For example, oatmeal with dried fruit and nuts is a good meal for breakfast, and can be found easily in an airport. If your airport has only big chain restaurants, still check out their menu – McDonald’s even has oatmeal! Another option for breakfast is a bagel with peanut butter or cream cheese. Try to pick bagels that are whole wheat, have fruits and/or nuts baked inside, or multi-grain. Bagels that are plain or covered in cinnamon sugar are full of empty calories. The carbohydrates from the bagel and protein from the peanut butter or cream cheese will make you feel fuller longer, and may prevent unnecessary snacking. If you have enough time to sit down for a meal, choose items that are not deep fried or covered in creamy sauces or dressings. Keeping your meals light and healthy will improve your mood and function during and after your trip. If space and time allows, packing foods from home is a great way to keep your eating healthy, and may even help reduce your cost of travel.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in;"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: -0.25in;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">5.<span style="font-size: 7pt;"> <b> </b></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b>Eating Because You’re Bored</b><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Everyone has at least once snacked for the sole reason of being bored. Waiting for flights is a fairly boring activity, especially when the layover is long. Keep yourself occupied to avoid unnecessary snacking. For example, bring a book, magazine, or puzzle to occupy yourself. You can also try walking laps around the terminal. This is a great way to waste time while waiting – you avoid the snacks and get some exercise! If you feel the need to eat something when you are not hungry, chew a piece of gum. This will give you the feeling of eating without the calories.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Following these five tips will help you decide what to eat the next time you take a trip. Remember to eat breakfast and keep drinking fluids, exchange common fast food items for healthier, delicious options, and take a walk instead of mindless snacking. If you always eat a cheeseburger every time you go to the airport, go for it. However, keep these meals small and eat them sparingly. Your travel day will improve significantly by making better decisions.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b>Contributed by:</b></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b>Lauren Marucci</b></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b>Dietetic Senior</b></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b>Penn State University</b></span></div><!--EndFragment-->Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17210794466624317481noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4204772665829132572.post-91987402384673800432013-06-06T11:38:00.000-07:002013-10-09T07:14:33.902-07:00Dorm Dining: How Does This Work?<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHAbM6aJPHBR0cozuLmDGP7eSe5UcxvW8GJ5eP8h5Zxglaq4MDMx6CDp6gYQygTltxnckDiuOJvgGV624h5wH35Y6yAwfy1qFbJiDL9ikuq2mtx0aFBSTJqQdNiZMOHOYod9BH60AGDemp/s1600/dorm+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHAbM6aJPHBR0cozuLmDGP7eSe5UcxvW8GJ5eP8h5Zxglaq4MDMx6CDp6gYQygTltxnckDiuOJvgGV624h5wH35Y6yAwfy1qFbJiDL9ikuq2mtx0aFBSTJqQdNiZMOHOYod9BH60AGDemp/s400/dorm+2.jpg" width="400" yya="true" /></a></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; mso-add-space: auto;"><br /></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; mso-add-space: auto;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">All schools have multiple rules about what can and cannot be kept in a dorm room. Although it would be nice to have items like a stove or oven, space is also limited. This makes it difficult to make healthy choices while living on campus. A big tip is to keep your room stocked with fresh fruits and vegetables, milk, bread, cereal, pastas, nuts, plain instant oatmeal, peanut butter, and limit the amount of snack foods. Also make sure you have utensils and dishes to eat with and on. The following are suggestions for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks that can all be made and stored in a common dorm room.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;

For all teams, pre-season camp consisted of intense 2-a-day practices, team workouts, and meetings with: Academics, Compliance, Media, Athletic Training, and Nutrition.<br /><br />The extreme physical demand of camp requires adequate fuel and hydration for all athletes. Both nutrition education and fueling strategies were implemented to keep the Tigers energized to endure long & hot practices and to ensure full-body recovery.<br /><br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: large;">Here are some photos highlighting our FUELED TIGERS:</span></b><br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: #351c75;">ATHLETIC TRAINING TABLE</span></b></div>The first 3 photos are of our Athletic Training Table. Connected to "The 5" dining hall, the training table provides Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner during Pre-season camp and Dinner during the Fall & Spring semesters. Registered Dietitians (RD): Briggette Mosley- Director of Athletic Dining and Jamie Mascari- Coordinator of Sports Nutrition work together closely on the menu, which changes daily and consists of a variety of wholesome foods and beverages for the athletes.<br /><br />Both RD's attend each meal and assist the athletes with food selection and questions they may have concerning diet and nutrition. Each food item is labeled with a color-coded meal card signifying the fat/calorie content and an explanation of how that particular food helps with athletic performance and/or recovery. Educational flyers are posted around the Training Table as additional resources for the athletes.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS6LgouaUR_N3ujsAN7YV7r9b9QyqXrrpbXwkccq2968tZPobEiqkU1w1DMxBo5G3untA37_LN3ncBK8gCagGGJm_W-kAxsvC_8Q_QMZoInYyKg0cwJNVXwUKFTeafk2w_arDADk8Qg12E/s1600/IMG_0913.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS6LgouaUR_N3ujsAN7YV7r9b9QyqXrrpbXwkccq2968tZPobEiqkU1w1DMxBo5G3untA37_LN3ncBK8gCagGGJm_W-kAxsvC_8Q_QMZoInYyKg0cwJNVXwUKFTeafk2w_arDADk8Qg12E/s320/IMG_0913.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTG88CWKulm2fKaKs0Ni9N1a2-OtnDWho43OS4W1I27a5dlPDxaEFJWLVZC7nLFdeWvWwI7MXExC-8DqZJIRujfUM0kHw8dZyqHmpodXibD788Wk56dk6fVA2tEpS5tLDSDXlOEIe0iTCy/s1600/IMG_0062.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTG88CWKulm2fKaKs0Ni9N1a2-OtnDWho43OS4W1I27a5dlPDxaEFJWLVZC7nLFdeWvWwI7MXExC-8DqZJIRujfUM0kHw8dZyqHmpodXibD788Wk56dk6fVA2tEpS5tLDSDXlOEIe0iTCy/s320/IMG_0062.JPG" width="320" /></a><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN90NT_7vQySk4Hwu7g-EQ84kmEX1mjq-QSYDChS5T4TqpAddvhZClqItqAuyavCgFf9E8wpo1n-5zWAH07CYaoilxUCMvnozmg7uTwaOGvJMUdd18AVzWrr7DJ94wT1DRDoy7_NVVkCR_/s1600/IMG_1006.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN90NT_7vQySk4Hwu7g-EQ84kmEX1mjq-QSYDChS5T4TqpAddvhZClqItqAuyavCgFf9E8wpo1n-5zWAH07CYaoilxUCMvnozmg7uTwaOGvJMUdd18AVzWrr7DJ94wT1DRDoy7_NVVkCR_/s320/IMG_1006.JPG" width="320" /></a><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs0ChTT3clMLFzQRpy4gf5w7Y7q4uBRb4_wQg8ElneEMkh-Jkd1pRPbOsmDVl6-kMbDqRYD90RWpJRveIqJPHBvAjd1jrKaIaECSwJ8mw-aZM8KLFj2R7JYIxweCC9u5tlRWROoRnSaqmO/s1600/IMG_0080.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs0ChTT3clMLFzQRpy4gf5w7Y7q4uBRb4_wQg8ElneEMkh-Jkd1pRPbOsmDVl6-kMbDqRYD90RWpJRveIqJPHBvAjd1jrKaIaECSwJ8mw-aZM8KLFj2R7JYIxweCC9u5tlRWROoRnSaqmO/s320/IMG_0080.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: #351c75;">VOLLEYBALL</span></b></div>The Volleyball athletes enjoyed a light and healthy lunch during their first 2-a-day practice.

The new platform, called Emer.ge, and the app, called The Body Image Voice, were launched today by Body Evolution Technologies in collaboration with Pennington. "The vision of Emer.ge is to empower individuals to shift focus from unrealistic appearance ideals and move toward health, balance, and optimal performance," says Dr. Tiffany Stewart, director of the Behavior Technology Laboratory at Pennington and co-founder/chief scientific officer of Body Evolution Technologies. "It seems basic, but science supports the idea that until we regard our bodies better, we won't treat them better," she says. The Body Image Voice app focuses on a single component of body image: the role media and advertising play in shaping our ideals of health and beauty. App users rate the impact of images and ads they see to assess which messages they think are helpful or harmful. The app will soon be available as a free download in the iTunes store.

This could be the case, as athletes are extrmemly active and burn calories like crazy, <strong>BUT</strong> will these poor food choices help with their overall performance? Choosing well-balanced meals, snacks, and fluids... before, during, and after athletic events/training sessions can help promote increased energy levels, strength, stamina, and even a higher chance of SUCCESS. <br /><br />The Plano West Soccer team utilized the guidance from Karin Hosenfeld, a board certified sports dietitian) and incorporated healthier pre-practice snacks and food choices in their daily diets.

But who says recovery has to be boring? On Thursday, March 22nd, the LSU football team had some fun at their Training Table meal as they joined many LSU students in The 5 dining hall singing and dancing with the DJ. Defensive Tackle, Anthony Johnson, took over as the mic man and kept the party going. Never a dull moment at LSU!

However, this is not usually the case...especially with elite athletes. Many factors go into what makes performance improve. In some cases, an increase in calories is needed to sustain the training regimens. In others, maybe the diet needs to be modifyied to included better quality food.

"Same thing with us. If you're eating pizza and drinking beer every night, you can't expect your body to perform at its top capability every day."<br /><br />It's important for athletes to understand the concept of "balance." With daily workouts, long practices, and late games, it's tough to have a perfect diet every single day. That's where planning comes into play. Planning nutritous meals and snacks- pre and post workout- will ensure adequate fuel and recovery for the athletes' active bodies. <br /><br />The 80-20 rule is a great way to think about your diet. 80% of the time, athletes should focus on wholesome carbohydrates, lean meats, and heart-healthy fats. 20% of the time, have fun and enjoy your favorite dish... even if it is a bit higher in fat or calories that is typically recommended. Remember, it's all about "balance." Your body deserves a treat every now and then.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="font-size: large;">Food is your Fuel... use it to your advantage.</span></strong></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">To read the full azcentral.com article, click here: <a href="http://www.azcentral.com/sports/diamondbacks/articles/2012/03/07/20120307arizona-diamondbacks-nutrition.html" target="_blank"><strong>Diamondback Article</strong></a></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17210794466624317481noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4204772665829132572.post-69594932530587578192012-03-02T08:54:00.000-08:002013-10-09T07:14:34.871-07:00Stay Thirsty My Friends<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwT0iOGrtWOf-0IhATcCBycdIu7HJHs41ZBOR7AWiELTvgixZ4sAfaJVHpTfe0Inrt0xOY-r7wyq166bF6FppRlp3mh59EBTMMeL_HLUuxdGFwy1dHfV2OcOYASoeZZbRp_m3ybDRmlAop/s1600/hydration.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwT0iOGrtWOf-0IhATcCBycdIu7HJHs41ZBOR7AWiELTvgixZ4sAfaJVHpTfe0Inrt0xOY-r7wyq166bF6FppRlp3mh59EBTMMeL_HLUuxdGFwy1dHfV2OcOYASoeZZbRp_m3ybDRmlAop/s1600/hydration.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">As athletes, we know that we need to drink water to stay hydrated while going through vigorous practices and games, but how much do we need and what are the consequences?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many people have heard that 8 glasses of water per day is the correct amount of water to drink.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is correct; however as athletes we are not the average bear when it comes to hydration.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><strong><u>Why is it important?</u></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">It is essential for us to maintain a balanced amount of fluids in our bodies each day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Having adequate hydration improves your ability to train and your overall performance on the field or court.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Without adequate hydration, it is common to have cramps, heat stroke, sickness, lethargy, and an overall lack of performance.</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><strong><u>Assessing Hydration</u></strong></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">So how do you know if you are hydrated or not?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The best indicator to tell by is the color of your urine.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The lighter the color, the more hydrated you are.

Is it good for me? Bad for me? “Will it make me fat?” Should I follow Ellen DeGeneres and go on a “sugar cleanse”? Should my kids eat sugar? In the media, sugar is regularly blamed for childhood and adult obesity, diabetes, fatty liver disease, metabolic syndrome, and even cancer. Lost in all this confusion is the simple fact that our bodies run on sugar. Sugar (glucose to be precise) is the only fuel that our brain and nerves can use under normal circumstances. If all we did was lie in bed and watch TV all day, our brain would still need about 100 grams (400 kcal) of glucose to fuel its activity.<br /></div><div>Improved performance is the most important benefit of drinking Powerade ION4 during exercise, a benefit that results from preventing dehydration and supplying energy to muscles. That energy is sugar. Sugars (carbohydrates) such as sucrose, glucose, and fructose are quickly digested in the intestine (in the case of sucrose), rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream, converted into glucose by the liver (in the case of fructose), and immediately transported to muscles, brain, nerves, and other tissues throughout the body. Active muscles take up glucose<br />(blood sugar) from the bloodstream and break it down to produce the energy required to keep active bodies going longer and stronger, one reason why sports drinks consistently beat plain water when it comes to performance.</div><div><br />There is absolutely no reason to apologize for or be defensive about the sugar in Powerade ION4. To the contrary, Powerade ION4 contains sugar for reasons rooted in strong science:<br />• The sweetness of sugar encourages voluntary fluid intake during exercise and that reduces the risks associated with dehydration;<br />• During exercise, sugar is such a powerfully positive signal to the brain that just the presence of<br />sugar in the mouth improves performance, even if the sugar is not swallowed;<br />• Sugar stimulates rapid water and nutrient absorption, an important attribute during exercise when sweat loss is high and the body needs energy and electrolytes;<br />• Sugar in the intestine and bloodstream provides feedback to the brain that the body is adequately fueled and that helps make exercise feel easier;<br />• The sugar in Powerade ION4 is used by muscles to produce energy and improve performance;<br />• Consuming sugar during prolonged, intense exercise actually reduces the stress hormone response to exercise and maintains the activity of certain immune cells;<br />• Finally, active consumers wary about sugar have a great option: Powerade ZERO.</div><div><br />Sugar critics often cite sugar intake as a cause of obesity. As evidence, they point to the fact that both obesity and sugar consumption in the US rose markedly from 1980-2003. But in the UK and Australia, sugar intake has fallen in that same time period, yet obesity rates in those countries have continued to rise. There is no doubt that too much of a good thing can be a bad thing; that’s true of sugar as it is of protein, water, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients. For sedentary people who are overweight or obese, consuming a diet high in sugar may well contribute to negative health outcomes. But for healthy, physically active people - and especially for athletes in training - sugar presents no risk to health and is absolutely essential to fuel physical and mental performance. And that’s certainly true for the relatively small amount of sugar in Powerade ION4.</div><div> </div><div>Powerade: Sports Drink Science, Feb 2012</div></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17210794466624317481noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4204772665829132572.post-25771365981383260582012-02-24T12:12:00.000-08:002013-10-09T07:14:35.169-07:00Supplement 411: a Great Resource for Information on Dietary Supplementation<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHP40t6Tf1biT0n_SVJ13Di10DlDTkzaNmCWA01X69M19EDfOz7Q4zzuzjDHVavALcvCjMPBEanLcETajWwTYO61Z8kLIUui-CzRMUwP3Efs9Ehd4IiygrvcnFYc9HnrfHFRYWxaHqCCw/s1600/Supplement+411+Logo.png"><img style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; width: 165px; height: 120px; float: left; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5712814570478256482" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHP40t6Tf1biT0n_SVJ13Di10DlDTkzaNmCWA01X69M19EDfOz7Q4zzuzjDHVavALcvCjMPBEanLcETajWwTYO61Z8kLIUui-CzRMUwP3Efs9Ehd4IiygrvcnFYc9HnrfHFRYWxaHqCCw/s200/Supplement+411+Logo.png" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfQYxz1j_VxQmdYpDXkqVtYk3gD3xMPE-syS3ERzTTuLqqdS_3Sh-PO-706jjKY9hIkkzBpXYnFfEJjRn1p8SG4MJWNoVqrrGOG4UJxisDtxoUOegrn3qWc_L4p-zuAZj4iVt91hUiiOY/s1600/Supplement+411+Logo.png"></a><div>Take some time, perhaps as much time as you would spend shopping aimlessly for your dietary supplements, and navigate to a website called <a href="http://www.usada.org/supplement411"><span style="color:#663366;">Supplement 411</span></a><span style="color:#663366;"> . </span><span style="color:#000000;">USADA (United States Anti-Doping Agency) has created this website to help guide athletes in their never ending search for the magic supplement...the pill or powder that will elevate their game to the next level.
