CND 723 Personalised Sports Nutrition (2023)

Personalised Sports Nutrition not only relates to the 'elite' athlete but extends to the increasing number of individuals engaging in competitive sporting activities. A significant number of sporting individuals sustain injuries, train alongside other health problems and train in a way that puts their health under strain. The major aim of this module is for students to critically review the evidence base for tailored personalised functional nutrition interventions for the healthy 'competitive' athlete and the sporting individuals who are training alongside other health problems. This module is not aimed towards nutrition and exercise for rehabilitation following chronic illness.
