Nutrition for special populations
Sports nutrition
The protein requirement for each individual differs, as do opinions about whether and to what extent physically active people require more protein. The 2005 Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA), aimed at the general healthy adult population, provide for an intake of 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight.[41] A review panel stating that "no additional dietary protein is suggested for healthy adults undertaking resistance or endurance exercise."[144]
The main fuel used by the body during exercise is carbohydrates, which is stored in muscle as glycogen – a form of sugar. During exercise, muscle glycogen reserves can be used up, especially when activities last longer than 90 min.[145]
Maternal nutrition
Paediatric nutrition
Adequate nutrition is essential for the growth of children from infancy right through until adolescence. Some nutrients are specifically required for growth on top of nutrients required for normal body maintenance, in particular calcium and iron.[146]
Elderly nutrition
Malnutrition in general is higher among the elderly, but has different aspects in developed and undeveloped countries.[147]
