Nutritional supplements are a multi-billion-dollar industry but what is the proof any of them benefit health or performance? The majority of studies involving the relationship between supplements and athletic performance have been carried out utilizing an endurance-exercise model. Although, most team sports have an aerobic component, they are characterized by bursts of high-intensity activity requiring power, speed, and quick decision-making. All athletes are looking for an “edge” and professionals working with athletes are charged with improving performance while keeping them safe. Sports Dietitian Kris Osterberg, PhD, RD, CSSD reviews the evidence supporting the food components and nutritional supplements that have been shown to improve some aspect of team-sport performance.
