NORTH ROYALTON, Ohio - May 28, 2014 - PRLog -- It’s great to have a sport or an exercise that you do in order to keep your body happy and healthy. In fact, it’s almost necessary to have something like this and to work out your body like that in order to be happier and in order to prevent disease and to help keep the weight off and to look good. If you’re into sports, there also might be the benefit of competition and that’s another thing that could be a benefit as well from this sort of thing. Yet there is one part of it that a lot of people seem to forget and that’s in the realm of nutrition and that’s just as important as the exercise you get. In this article you will find out the benefits of nutrition for sport and exercise and why you should keep that in when you’re working out.
The first thing is you lose a lot of the key vitamins and minerals while working out. Water-soluble ones such as vitamin C are burned up pretty easily in daily affairs but the fat-soluble ones such as vitamin A and D are usually burned when you’re burning fat. When you do work out you lose them as well, and you need to replace it. Also two other key things that you have to have in your body are salt and potassium. If you don’t have those, then you could be in trouble when you work out. Some people have even gotten heat exhaustion from not replenishing that. You can do that while you’re working out too by taking salt tablets if you’re not a fan of all the extra sugars and stuff that Gatorade has. If you don’t take care of that it can lead to nausea, your body forming lactic acid because of the lack of oxygen, your body getting tired, muscle soreness, and it can even result in fainting. It’s an important part of nutrition for sport and exercise to keep this in and you will feel better as well.
Second of all another big part of this is you need to ensure you have the energy to do the exercises both before and after. Sure you could load up on some fast food or something before you work out and you’ll burn it off, but what are you getting out of that? You’re not getting nutrient-dense foods and instead you’re getting empty calories. That’s the big mistake that people make when they work out, and even though it may be a “reward” now you’re just shooting yourself in the foot for later on in life. You should make sure that you do get foods with good protein and fat in it to help your body process well and you live well as a result.
