<p>Vitamins and minerals are also crucial in energy metabolism. In order to obtain vitamins and minerals, athletes need to eat a wide assortment of nutrient-dense foods in amounts that will maintain energy balance. Even athletes whose energy intakes may be about 2,000 kcal/day can meet their vitamin and mineral needs from food alone.</p>
<p>As long as a wide variety of foods are eaten, vitamin and mineral intake is adequate. High in vitamins are fruits and vegetables. High-color food choices mean high vitamin content thus high energy storage. Grains also contain both vitamins and minerals.</p>
<p>Supplements should never be replacements for food. While many sports supplements contain the antioxidant beta carotene, at least 450 carotenoids are only found in food. Minerals for injury prevention</p>
<p>Minerals like calcium, iron, and zinc are especially important for athletes.</p>
<p>Recommendations of calcium intake are based on levels than can promote calcium retention, maximize bone mineral density, and inhibit bone loss. Lower calcium intake subjects the athlete to increased risk of stress fracture. Iron depletion, the first stage of iron deficiency is the most common type of iron deficiency among athletes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>sports nutrition and exercise have been part of man&#8217;s life and his culture since the ancient times. Earliest forms of athletics, however, were part of man&#8217;s basic need for survival, either to gather food or protect his family from physical harm.</p>
<p>Eventually, cave man regular hunting activities had developed into some form of physical acts, without so much need to hunt.</p>
<p>History of athletics was born. Athletics eventually developed into a contest of strength, speed, and other skills. Sports would later developed out of this, with the simple contest developing into a more complicated form of physical activity, and with it the need for sustenance, completing the equation of sports nutrition and exercise.</p>
<p>In the earliest time, athletics or sports was never a monopoly of the male sex. In the Heraen Games for instance, women raced in honor of the goddess Hera. The Egyptians had their acrobatic gymnastics for their temple related activities. And, of course, the sports dance had evolved from religious related dance performed in every major temple in antiquity.</p>
<p>Nutrition patterns of the Greek Wariors</p>
<p>In the Mediterranean world, Greeks particularly, goats is the most common source of meat, and occasionally, beef from sacrificed cattle. Just like in the modern day, milk was also considered as a must for a good meal, especially for the warior. Sports nutrition and exercise among the Greek Wariors meant also the inclusion of other source of protein, fish for instance, which the seas of Mediterranean is known for in the ancient times.</p>
<p>The Romans, Persians, just like the Greeks, used vegetables such as cabbage not only as food, but also as antidote for their drunken soldiers. Beets, turnips, artichokes, and radishes also form the long list of edible vegetables cultivated and used during this period.</p>
<p>The ancient knight&#8217;s, warior’s, athlete’s  diet</p>
<p>From the foods that consisted the regular diet of the ancient athletes, such as cheese, figs, and meal cakes, the attempt of the ancient trainers to developed special meal for their athletes were apparent.</p>
<p>Though meat was not consumed in large quantities by the athletes during originally, it was observed later that athletes who are given regular dosage of meat for protein source, had more long lasting strength. It was in the fifth century BC, when meat became a craze among the ancient athletes.</p>
<p>During this time, Slymphalos, an Olympic champion in the in the long-distance race, introduced the meat diet to help athletes in their exercises. It was the earliest attempt of a professional athlete to come up with a systematized sports nutrition and exercise. Milo of Croton, won five Olympic awards from 536 to 520 B.C., was reputed to have consumed 9 kilogram of meat during his training period.</p>
