A Food Pyramid for Swiss Athletes
نویسنده
چکیده
Earlier this year, I enjoyed an opportunity to speak at the Swiss Forum for Sport Nutrition in Zurich, organized by Dr. Paolo Colombani. One of my fellow presenters at this forum was Samuel Mettler, a graduate of the Movement Sciences and Sport course at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich). Samuel is about to finish his doctoral thesis on the glycemic index in sport and the influence of protein intake during weight loss in sport and was involved in the development of the Swiss Food Guide Pyramid for Athletes. In this interview, we ask Samuel to tell us more about how the food guide pyramid was developed.
