To get the most out of your body when playing sport it is important to feed your body what it needs. The majority of people today are living off 40% if not less of their required nutrients. This is the reason that most of us are always tired, cannot deal with stress and don’t feel like we are performing as well as we could. If you feed your body the correct nutrients to run on top form you will definitely feel the difference. We should all be eating 5 to 9 portions of fruit and vegetables a day, 8 glasses of water and even more if you are exercising, 3 portions of fiber, protein and carbohydrates, and a source of omega 3 at least 3 times a week, this can include fish.

Unfortunately the majority of us do not get all these nutrients. An easy way to make sure you are receiving all the right nutrients is to take whole food supplements which are produced naturally by GNLD. When it comes to sports nutrition a buzz word is Amino Acids, which is the basest form of protein. There are 22 amino acids but few protein shakes on the market that provide all 22. It would be beneficial if you are sportsman to drink a Nourishake every morning as this provides you with all 22 amino acids as well as all the other nutrients your body needs. The vitality pack will also provide your body with the correct nutrients for your body. Phytodefense provides your body with many nutrients found in vegetables and is designed to improve your immune system. Salmon Oil provides your body with its omega 3 requirements helping your body to function better. Tre-en-en provides your body with essential fatty acids it needs to run properly and it most importantly ensures that your cells absorb the nutrients and get rid of any waste.

When you eat a meal at dinner time, aim for half of the meal to be vegetables or salad with a low fat salad dressing or none at all. You should aim for the rest to be a quarter meats or protein and the other quarter carbohydrates.

Depending on individual preferences and different sports nutrition needs will differ. For example someone who is an endurance athlete will need to carbo-load the day before training or an event as this is the most readily available source of fuel for your body. On the opposite side, a rugby player for example, would include a lot of protein in their diet in order to maintain muscle mass.
