Many health professionals today seem to approach sports nutrition and physical activity recommendations with a 'one size fits all' approach. Surprisingly, little consideration goes into addressing the changing needs of athletes as they progress in age. ""Nutrition and Exercise Concerns of Middle Age"" addresses the specific nutritional and physical activity needs of active individuals thirty to sixty years old. Judy A. Driskell, one of the world's leading experts in the field of sports nutrition, brin Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record Subject Middle-aged persons -- Nutrition.
