Supplements
The consumption of performance-enhancing supplements, protein powders, amino acids, plant extracts, herbal supplements, and other non-food substances is perhaps the trendiest area of sports nutrition. Athletes and laypersons believe that these supplements will give them a competitive edge when, in fact, they may be harmful to both health and performance. The types of supplements used by athletes are continuously changing. There is a wide range of substances used. Substances are often marketed without any supportive scientific data to indicate the potential benefits or possible harmful side effects. Food and performance supplements are NOT regulated by the Federal Food and Drug Administration as many people believe. In fact, there is no independent or federally sanctioned agency that regulates the purity and safety of food supplements. Therefore, the use of any performance enhancing supplements is not recommended, endorsed, or encouraged unless prescribed by a licensed medical practitioner (Physician, Nurse Practitioner, or a Physician’s Assistant).
