An invaluable resource for both exercise science majors and non-majors, ACSM's Nutrition for Exercise Science, 2nd Edition, demystifies the relationship between nutrition and exercise science and prepares you to confidently apply concepts to clinical practice.
Drawing on author Dan Benardot's extensive experience as an instructor, scientist, this engaging, authoritative text delivers an evidence-based yet accessible exploration of how nutrition impacts various aspects of active populations, from general health to muscle development, exercise recovery, injury prevention, and psychological well-being. Real-world examples and case studies bring difficult concepts to life, equipping you with the knowledge and confidence to support the nutritional needs of active populations throughout your healthcare career.
