Optimal ratios and quantities of nutrients, vitamins, and minerals for achieving maximum power, strength, and performance
How to avoid gastrointestinal distress during activity
The most popular supplements and their effects on your athletic performance
Strategies for balancing fluid and electrolytes to avoid dehydration and hyperhydration

Sport-specific guidelines for power sports, endurance sports, and those that require both power and endurance

To further assist you in distilling the science into practice, you'll find 13 practical nutrition guides in the appendix. Curious about pregame nutrition, hydration, high-carb snacks, or macronutrient intake? These quick reference sheets help you easily apply the principles to your own nutrition plan. With Advanced Sports Nutrition, Third Edition, you get practical advice for how best to put nutrition science to work for you. Earn continuing education credits/units!
