While most books on sports nutrition focus on the professional or competition-level athlete, little research in this area has considered the very health conscious baby boomer generation. Judy Driskell, one of the top experts in sports nutrition, turns her attention in this book to the nutrition needs of the middle-aged athlete. She brings together current research on energy-yielding nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and fluids and hydration. She also includes information on recreational activities including endurance and strength training exercises, age-related disorders, and public health policies, as well as the role of diet and physical activity in reducing risk and treating age-related diseases.
