What is a Calorie?
A calorie/kcal is a measurement of energy:

We consume calories in food.


We expend calories during activity and to maintain normal body function.

How Many Calories you Need Each Day Depends on Your:


Age Height Weight Gender Amount of body muscle Amount of daily physical activity

Calculate YOUR Personal Daily Caloric Requirements


Follow the instructions for Nutrition Assignment #1 to calculate the number of calories you need to fuel an average days activities.

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4

Determine Resting Metabolic Rate. (RMR) Figure Out Daily Activity Level. Calculate the amount of calories burned during Purposeful Exercise. Determine Total Calorie Requirement.

Canada Food Guide Principles


Key Concepts:
Enjoy a VARIETY of foods. Emphasize vegetables &

fruits.
Choose lower-fat dairy

products, leaner meats and foods prepared with little or no Make wise choices: not only fat.
Limit salt, alcohol and

caffeine.

for overall health, but for optimal sporting performance!

Servings & Serving Sizes


How much food do you need everyday? Not everyone has the same food requirements. Refer to your Canada Food Guide for a chart on food needs for different ages and genders.
Eg. Food Requirements for 35 year old woman Grain Products Fruits & Vegetables 6 7 servings 7 8 servings

Healthy Eating
Fats 25 30% Carbohydrates 55 65%

Proteins 10 15%

Healthy Eating for Youth/Adolescents


Fats 30%
Carbohydrates 50%

Proteins 20%

Adolescents need more protein because they are growing.

Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates (CHO)
Preferred source of energy for the muscles and brain. The easiest way to increase carbohydrates is to add

more grain products, vegetables and fruits to your diet.

1 gram Carbohydrate = 4 calories

A Misconception that Carbohydrates are bad and need to be cut out

This is especially detrimental to athletes, who need the continual source of carbohydrate to fuel their exercise. Carbohydrates are crucial, because they are our bodys preferred energy source The primary role of carbohydrates is to provide the body with energy (in the form of blood sugar and muscle glycogen) The majority of our diet should be carbohydrates. A higher percent of carbohydrates are required for athletes who train exhaustively on successive days, and for athletes involved in endurance training. For a young athlete, the majority of their diet should consist of carbohydrates (a minimum of 50% of the calories they consume) however they also need to consume a bit more protein for body growth and activity The key is to consume wholegrain carbohydrates most of the time, the ones with fibre like whole wheat breads and cereals, brown rice, and to limit sweets and extra sugars and choose low fat foods more often. (ie. Aim for 6g sugar/serving of cereal, ~3/g fat/serving of cookies and crackers For a young athlete, the majority of their diet should consist of carbohydrates (a minimum of 50% of the calories they consume)

Healthy Sources of Carbohydrates


1. Grains:
- Wholegrain

2. Vegetables and Fruits:


- Colours

3. Dairy Products:
- % MF or % BF

4. Meats and Alternatives:


- Legumes (Dried Peas, Beans & Lentils)

Glycogen

The stored form of glucose found in liver and the muscles.(You may have about 400500g of glycogen in your muscles. That translated to about 1,500 - 2,000 calories stored in your muscles as glycogen.)

Exercise depletes glycogen stores (a high


carbohydrate diet replenishes glycogen stores)

Glycogen storage capacities vary: the fitter you are, the greater your storage capacity. Aerobic training and diet improvements greatly increases the amount of glycogen stored in the muscle!

Two Types of Carbohydrates


1.

Simple Carbohydrates are sugars.


digested and absorbed quickly for immediate use as energy.

Eg. Vegetables & Fruit Milk Products Extras


Athletes should consume simple carbohydrates during activity or immediately after for a quick burst of energy.

Types of Carbohydrates Contd


2. Complex Carbohydrates are starches and fibres.
slowly digested and absorbed into the bloodstream.

Eg. Grain Products Meat & Alternatives

Athletes should consume complex carbohydrates 2-4 hours before or immediately after an activity to add to/restore energy.

Two Types of Fibre


1. Soluble Fibre
Oats & oat bran Dried peas, beans, lentils Vegetables & fruits

2. Insoluble Fibre
Wheat bran, whole grains (wheat, rye, etc.) & rice Vegetables and fruits with skins

Slows the absorption of food into the body. Helps reduce cholesterol.

Provides roughage which pulls water into the large intestine. Reduces constipation.

Remember: if are trying to increase the fibre in your diet, do it slowly and increase your fluid consumption. Fibre without Water = CONCRETE!

Fibre Recommendations The average Canadian consumes 10-20 g of fibre/day.


Bottom Line: We all need to consume more fibre.

Fats

Functions of Fat in the Body


Fuel for health and athletic performance:
A major storage site for energy. Humans have an unlimited capacity to store fat

Carbohydrate and fat both needed as energy

sources:

Moderate intensity, long duration.

Carrier of fat soluble vitamins Vitamins A, D, E & K. Serves as shock absorber and protective shield for the

heart, brain and internal organs.

1 gram Fat = 9 calories

Fat Comparison
Apple (50 cal) vs. tsp of Butter (50 cal)

Both contain about 50 calories but because the butter is Fat those calories are much more condensed

Types of Fats & How They Relate to Health

Fat & Exercise


Limit intake of fat to 20 35% of daily calories.
Young athletes need about 25 35% fat.

Ultra low-fat diets:


Less than 20% of calories from fat.

Not recommended for athletes.

Conversion of fat to energy is

S L O W
Cannot sustain intense activity.

Recommended Daily Fat Intake


To determine the amount of fat you should be consuming on a daily basis for optimal health: Instructions Example:
1. Take your Personal Daily Caloric Requirement 2. Remove the Last Digit 3. Divide the number by 3 4. This is your daily recommended fat intake in grams 2200 220 73 73 g of fat/day

Remember:
1 tsp. Fat = 5 grams Choose better fats to fulfill daily intakes Read food labels carefully

Proteins

Protein in the Body


Proteins are found everywhere in the body: Muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, blood cells. Proteins are composed of building blocks called amino acids. The primary role of protein is to maintain and repair all the bodys cells and tissues. Proteins have other vital roles in the body such as:
a) hemoglobin (in blood) which carries oxygen to all cells in the body b) Enzymes control digestion, metabolism c) Antibodies involved in immune system

1 gram Protein = 4 calories

Protein Needs Vary Depending on Age & Activity Level


Protein needs are slightly higher for:
Adolescent athletes. Athletes who are restricting calories. Endurance & strength-training athletes.

Types of Protein
1.

Complete Protein
contains all essential amino acids.
Eg. Eggs, meat, fish, poultry & milk products.

2. Incomplete Protein is
missing one or more essential amino acids.
Eg. grains, soy, beans, lentils, nuts & seeds.

Complementary Proteins
Mixing of two incomplete proteins to provide all the essential amino acids.

Grains & Milk Products

Protein as an Energy Source?


Protein can be used as an energy source if

carbohydrates and caloric intake are insufficient.

Proteins are a very inefficient energy source.

The body prefers to use carbohydrates as its energy

source:

More efficient and cleaner burning fuel.

About 10 15% of our total calories should be from

protein foods. from protein.

For young athletes, 20% of calories should be

Protein Supplements
Not necessary: benefit is

usually from the extra calories, not the protein itself.


EXPENSIVE!!!
No regulations: Inconsistent ingredients Banned substances

For more information on supplements, please refer to the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) website: www.cces.ca

Vitamins & Minerals


Essential for health and growth. Vitamins
Water Soluble

Vitamin Bs & C Fat Soluble Vitamins A, D, E & K

Vitamins & Minerals


Delicate balance
High doses of individual vitamin and/or mineral

supplements ARE NOT recommended. Supplements ARE NOT food replacements.

Include a variety of foods from the CFG to obtain all essential vitamins and minerals.
The three major minerals important to athletes: CALCIUM, IRON & ZINC.

Whole foods are greater than the sum of their parts.

Calcium for Athletes


Major component of the bones and teeth. Also needed for muscle contraction and blood clotting. Groups at risk of insufficient calcium intake:
Athletes in appearance-based sports. Long distance runners.

Calcium Intakes
Adequate calcium is important throughout the lifecycle. Maximum absorption is 400 500mg Calcium at a time. 1 serving of Milk Products provides 300 350mg of Calcium.

Iron for Athletes

Iron is an essential component of hemoglobin:


carries oxygen to all cells of the body. Involved in the metabolism of other nutrients.

Athletes with increased caloric intake usually receive enough iron for their needs.

Two Types of Iron


Heme Iron
Animal food sources only
Readily absorbed by the body

Non-Heme Iron
Plant sources Poorly absorbed by the body ~ 35% absorption
Examples of Non-Heme Iron Sources Dried Apricots c. (125 ml) = 2.5 mg Breakfast Cereals = 4-18 mg

~ 23% absorption
Examples of Heme Iron Sources Hamburger, Lean 3 oz (90 g) = 7.5 mg Chicken, 3 oz (90 g) = 1 mg

Spinach c. (125 ml) = 2.3 mg


Peas c. (125 ml) = 1.6 mg

Athletes & Iron Deficiency


The bodys iron status is affected by the amount of

iron consumed.
When combined with menstruation and exercise at a high intensity and long duration, there is a greater risk of upsetting the bodies iron status, which may lead to iron deficiency anemia.

Iron deficiency anemia may reduce the bodys ability to provide oxygen to working muscles.

Zinc for Athletes


Zinc required for: Maintenance of immune response. Energy production during exercise. Skeleton and brain development Growth and reproduction Repair of tissue
60% of bodys total zinc stores are found in the muscle.

Athletes and Zinc


Endurance athletes - at risk of low intake and

low zinc stores. Why???


Diets:

High in carbohydrates Low in meats

Zinc is lost through increased sweating.

Muscle breakdown increases urinary zinc loss.

Zinc Sources
Meat & Alternatives Seafood

Oysters, King Crab

Beef, Liver & Poultry Legumes Dried peas, beans & lentils Nuts & Seeds

Grains Wheat Germ Whole Grains Enriched Breakfast Cereals

Recommended Intake of Zinc


Canada Food Guide recommendations will provide

healthy amount of zinc.


Zinc lozenge = 5 10 mg of zinc Recommended daily intake for adults = 10 mg DO NOT exceed a maximum daily intake of 40 mg. MORE IS NOT BETTER!

Achieving a Healthy Weight Body Mass Index (BMI) Healthy Weight Loss Gaining Muscle Mass Snacks for Weight Loss & Weight Gain

Eating Disorders
Female Athlete Triad

Aside from the limits imposed


by heredity and the physical improvements associated with training, no factor plays a bigger role in exercise performance

than does nutrition.


- Dr. David Costill (Exercise Physiologist)

What is a Healthy Weight?


Canadas guidelines for

healthy eating recommend we all achieve and maintain a healthy body weight by enjoying regular physical activity and healthy eating. A healthy body weight is different for everyone. There are a range of body weights which are healthy for each person.

Body Mass Index


Body Mass Index (BMI) is a method used to determine ideal body weight ranges for the general population. There are limitations with BMI and your BMI factor may not be so accurate if you are: 1. Pregnant 3. Very Muscular 2. Breast Feeding 4. Under 20/Over 65 not be determined by % fat or by body weight.

Ideal competitive weight is individual for each person; this can

All body composition measurements have a minimum

of 3% error.

Weight Maintenance:
Calories consumed = Calories expended

Maintaining a Healthy Weight


Cardiovascular exercise burns body fat:
Eg: Biking, Running & Swimming

Strength training increases muscle mass which boosts metabolism. 1 lb body fat burns 2 calories per hour at rest. 1 lb body muscle burns 40 50 calories per hour at rest.

Weight Loss:
Calories consumed less than Calories expended

Healthy Weight Loss


Should be gradual: 1 2 lbs per week maximum: any more and you could be losing muscle mass.
Should be done during off season training, but not

during competitions.

To lose the recommended number of lbs/week, decrease calories by 500 per day.

Weight Gain:
Calories consumed greater than Calories expended

Gaining Muscle Mass


Strength training program is essential! Weight gain should be gradual:
0.2 0.9 kg/week or 0.5 2 lbs/week.

Slightly increase caloric intake by increasing foods from all four food groups.

Should be supervised by professionals.

Disordered Eating?

Anorexia (or self-starvation) is the most dangerous, due to its medical complications.

Disordered Eating?

Its not our bodies that need changing. Its our attitudes.
National Eating Disorder Information Centre www.nedic.ca

Eating Disorders

Affects both men and women. The prevalence of eating disorders in the general population is 3 5%, while among athletes, the occurrence is as high as 46%! Among athletes, eating disorders are most common in:
1. 2.

Long distance runners. Athletes of appearance-based sports.

Disordered Eating Signs & Symptoms


Abnormal Eating Habits Increase or decrease in weight Not related to a medical condition Intense pre-occupation with weight and body image Compulsive or excessive exercising Self-induced vomiting Periods of fasting Laxative, diet pill or diuretic abuse
From Eating Disorder Education Organization Website: http://www.edeo.org

Disordered Eating & Athletic Performance


Reducing food intake removes the essential nutrients needed for performance:
Energy Source Result:
Recovery from training and competition slowed. Secondary energy source unavailable which means poor performance. No energy available body moves to the next energy source fat If fat is unavailable, then protein is used. When protein is used to fuel the body, it results in reduced muscle mass a harmful outcome for training and performance.
