The true hotbed of nutrition over the past 20 years has been in the sports category. The sports nutrition community has produced a huge body of research, and they’ve been on the forefront of dietary supplement development as well. In fact, this segment has expanded so much that there’s now an entire career path dedicated to sports nutrition and performance enhancement.
Athletes continue to push the envelope of possibility in a wide variety of sports, and one of the biggest factors has been the use of performance supplements. This all started with the creation of Gatorade® back in the 1960’s, but we’ve seen huge strides in recent years. Whether you’re training for your first 5K run or you’re gearing up for next season on the professional tour, almost everyone has the same goal—we want to perform well!
Luckily, there are numerous supplements that improve performance in surprisingly different ways. Some are targeted to endurance athletes and some are designed for more of the strength training crowd, but the important points here are that they’re safe and effective. Despite this seemingly good news, there are even more products that simply don’t work, and many supplement companies simply don’t really care. Unfortunately, uneducated consumers will buy their products regardless of efficacy.
The moral of the story is—do your research before deciding to use a performance supplement. Anytime Health is a great place to do just that.
