LEA & RED-S Infographic

Sports dietitians play a crucial role in guiding athletes toward optimal nutritional patterns for peak performance. Maintaining adequate energy availability (EA), measured as kilocalories per kilogram of fat-free mass (kcal/kg FFM), is essential not only for exercise performance but also for essential physiological functions and daily activities. The line between optimal and deficient nutrition can be very narrow, especially in endurance, weight class, and aesthetic sports. Our LEA & RED-S infographic provides clear guidance on managing these delicate balances to support athlete health and performance.

Anti-Doping Toolkit

In addition to nutritional guidance, dietitians must also help athletes navigate the complex landscape of doping risks associated with nutritional and ergogenic supplements. Our Anti-Doping Toolkit equips dietitians with comprehensive knowledge of doping rules, the risks of contamination in nutrition and supplements, prohibited substances, and the rights and obligations of athletes and support personnel. The toolkit is aligned with the WADA Code, ensuring that dietitians have the necessary information to prevent doping violations and maintain the integrity of their guidance.
