Beschreibung
Every person who embraces an active lifestyle often grapples with the question of when and what to eat. Nutritional timing, or the optimal timing of the intake of the right nutrients, which supports the maximization of performance and energy, is very important for muscle tissue development, and thus for the enhancement of strength, speed, and endurance. The optimal selection of foods in terms of macronutrients and micronutrients even improves immune system function, accelerates recovery after exertion, and helps prevent injuries. The authors utilize the latest findings based on current research in their book, highlighting a number of controversial and often risky issues, separating hypotheses and myths from truths, and attempting to clarify some contentious questions, such as the issue of MCT fats, the function of carnitine, the role of hormones, and many others. The publication contains many valuable tips and advice, examples of sample meal plans and dietary strategies that will benefit not only athletes engaged in strength and speed sports and endurance activities but also those interested in healthy, balanced, and dietary nutrition.
