Introduction to the Program

The quality of nursing care to the athlete is conditioned by the updating of the knowledge that the nurse has in this field. Nursing has the necessary knowledge and skills to perform valuable functions in the field of sports”

Most of the factors that determine health are related to both nutrition and the regular practice of physical exercise. In athletes, a balanced diet must provide enough energy to meet all needs, while supplying all the necessary nutrients in the right amounts, considering individual characteristics and needs, and adapting intake to the type of sport performed and training schedules. 

An adequate diet, in terms of both quantity and quality, before, during, and after physical activity is essential to optimize performance. While good nutrition cannot replace improper training or regular physical fitness, an inadequate diet can harm the performance of a well-trained athlete.
