Creating a Healthful PlanCreating a Healthful Plan
(1) Aim to have 3 different types of foods at each meal
(2) Choose whole, natural foods more often; ie- fresh fruit vs. juice, whole grain bread vs. white bread, etc.
(3) Eat/think in moderation; make room for favorite foods
![Page 9: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Basic NutritionBasic Nutrition
• Minimum of 6-9 svgs of fruit & vegetable/d
• Make your Carbs count= choose high fiber, whole grain choices
• Limit saturated fat and concentrated sweets
• Increase overall variety in diet of whole, natural, nutrient rich foods
• Ensure adequate hydration

CARBOHYDRATES & EXERCISECARBOHYDRATES & EXERCISE
• MOST important in controlling energy; affects fat-burning & muscle-building
• Most immediate energy source for cells (blood glucose- BG, muscle & liver glycogen)
• Body prefers to burn CHO vs. Pro, Fat
• Efficient fat burning requires the availability of adequate CHO
![Page 12: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
DO CARBS MAKE YOU FAT?DO CARBS MAKE YOU FAT?
• Sedentary people → perhaps• Active people & athletes → NO!• BUT……
-Eat a variety of whole CHO foods (beans, fruit, vegetables, whole grains)-Exercise sensitizes your cells to insulin
• Insulin & CHO are NOT the problemCalories & poor diet planning
![Page 13: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
DO CARBS MAKE YOU FAT?
BOTTOM LINE
Poor dietary choices
Eating more calories than you burn
INCREASED BODY FAT

CHO: AMOUNT & TIMINGCHO: AMOUNT & TIMING
• Preworkout CHO: ½-2h before- small meal of CHO(25g) & Pro(14-15g)
-For a quick boost→ drink a liquid CHO (sports drink, fat-free or low fat milk- cow or soy)
• During workout: depends on activity, how long you are exercising
• Postworkout CHO: CHO w/Pro
![Page 18: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
ProteinProtein
• Building blocks: AMINO ACIDS
• ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY for the growth, repair, and maintenance of body tissue
• Hormone secretion, water balance, transportation of nutrients, O2 transport, regulation of blood clotting
• **Muscle Cells: Protein is key in
the repair and construction of
muscle tissue
![Page 19: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CHOOSING THE RIGHT CHOOSING THE RIGHT PROTEINPROTEIN
• Vary your protein intake
• NATURAL, WHOLE foods first
• Animal Pro: 95-99% absorption & use by the body
• PLANT Pro: > 80% absorption & use by the body
![Page 20: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
PROTEIN SOURCESPROTEIN SOURCES
• Egg (ovalbumin) high quality protein
• Fish (low fat & chol, vitamins, omega-3)
*Mercury- Check FDA & EPA warnings
• Red Meat (lean cuts; iron, zinc)
*Key is to control amount of saturated fat
• Fat-free or Low-fat dairy
*Whey & casein; soy milk
• Plant protein (soy products, nuts, beans/legumes)
![Page 21: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
TIMING OF PROTEIN INTAKETIMING OF PROTEIN INTAKE
• Consumption of protein BEFORE & AFTER exercise dramatically enhances recovery -Replenishment of muscle glycogen-Synthesis of new muscle protein
• Pre-exercise: small meal with protein• Post-exercise: small meal of lean
protein combined with a high GI CHO-Jumpstarts glycogen replenishment
![Page 22: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
HIGH PROTEIN DIETS: HIGH PROTEIN DIETS: DANGERSDANGERS
• Low CHO and high Pro intake leads to loss of muscle during weight loss
• Metabolic rate decreases due to muscle loss
• High in saturated fat & cholesterol
• Low in fiber
• May lead to DEHYDRATION
• Avoid: diets that drastically limit CHO or completely OMIT CHO altogether
![Page 23: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
FatFat
Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range
(AMDR) for Total Fat:
20% - 35% of total energy intake (Moderate)
Limited Saturated Fat- <10% of energy
In agreement with ADA Position: Athletes NOT to restrict dietary fat intake because very low fat diets (< 15%) have not been proven to enhance performance.
![Page 24: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
FAT FACTSFAT FACTS
• Triglycerides, cholesterol, phospholipids
• Saturated fat in the diet is used by the liver to produce blood cholesterol
• Excess Chol leads to fatty plaques; high Chol levels lead to CVD
• Omega-3 FA (lower inflammation, BP, and control cognitive function)
![Page 25: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
FAT & EXERCISEFAT & EXERCISE
• FAT stores are nearly impossible to entirely deplete; most efficient storage
• 1g Fat= 9 kcals
• Broken down ONLY in presence of O2
• Takes ~20-40m of exercise before FAT is used for energy
• Strength training & aerobic exercise improve the body’s ability to
burn fat for energy
![Page 26: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
CHOOSING THE RIGHT CHOOSING THE RIGHT FATSFATS
• Reduce the bad fats in your diet-Saturated Fat (whole milk, fatty meats)-Select leaner cuts of meat-Limit egg yolk intake (NO more than 1/day)-Limit/avoid processed snack foods-Avoid trans-fats (hydrogenated)
20% - 35% of total energy intake

Micronutrients: Micronutrients: Vitamins & Vitamins & MineralsMinerals
• If energy intake is adequate, physically active individuals will have vitamin and mineral needs comparable to those of healthy, moderately active individuals.
Therefore, the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) are appropriate guidelines. Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA)- adequate intake level for ~ 98% of healthy people.Adequate Intake (AI)- value estimated when RDA is unable to be determined.
• However, supplementation may be required for athletes with excessive losses through perspiration and urine.

Pre-exercise FuelingPre-exercise Fueling
• Adequate carbohydrate-rich foods in the hours before you exercise
• For activity < 1 hour: eat foods that are digested easily; high carb, low fat- banana, whole grain crackers, cereal, or toast
• For activity > 1 hour: choose a snack with a little protein and fat as well- oatmeal with LF milk, egg & toast, whole grain bread and peanut butter
![Page 34: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Pre-exercise FuelingPre-exercise Fueling
• Limit high fat foods; choose smaller servings of leaner protein sources such as turkey, eggs, LF milk
• Use caution with sugary foods/drinks pre-exercise (soda, candies, etc)
• Leave enough time to digest:
-3-4 hours for large meals
-2-3 hours for a smaller meal
-< 1 hour for small snacks
• Don’t forget the fluids!!!
![Page 35: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
REFUELING & RECOVERYREFUELING & RECOVERY
• CHO stimulates insulin release
• Insulin helps transport CHO into the muscle cells to replenish depleted glycogen stores
• Combining CHO with protein is the best way to refuel and build muscle because it reduces cortisol production
![Page 36: Sports Nutrition for Beginners Basic Eating Tips for Active People Sabrina Candelaria, MPH, RD, LD/N Registered Dietitian- Medical Wellness Center University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032706/56649dff5503460f94ae7499/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
REFUELING & RECOVERYREFUELING & RECOVERY
(1) Replacing fluid losses- every 1 pound of weight lost= ~16oz. fluid lost during exercise
(2) Replenish glycogen stores with carbohydrate-rich foods with some protein
-A glass of low fat chocolate milk
-Fruit smoothie made with yogurt or milk
-Bowl of whole grain cereal, low fat milk and fruit

TAKE HOME POINTSTAKE HOME POINTS
• Eating a healthy, balanced diet of nutrient rich foods throughout the day is the best tool for success
• Moderation is key• Hydrating yourself before, during,
and after is critical• Supplements and sports foods are
NOT substitutes for eating whole, natural foods, and should be used appropriately
