Item INTERVENCIÓN NUTRICIONAL EN DEPORTISTAS DE ALTO RENDIMIENTO CON ANEMIA(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera Nutrición y Dietética, 2024-09-25) Tuaza Manobanda, María José; Guevara Villacís, Mishelts VanessaSports nutrition, a constantly evolving science, focuses on providing athletes with the nutrients necessary for training, competition, recovery and rest. This includes adequate energy, macronutrients for muscle repair, and micronutrients for physical performance. "Sports anemia" is a concern, characterized by low hemoglobin levels that can affect performance. Iron deficiency anemia, caused by iron deficiency, is common in athletes and can affect the body's ability to transport oxygen. Intense exercise can induce changes in the hematological system, contributing to this apparent anemia. Iron intake and bioavailability are essential, highlighting the importance of combining iron-rich foods with absorption enhancers and avoiding inhibitors such as tea and calcium. In athletic women, high levels of hepcidin can inhibit iron absorption, especially during intermittent fasting, increasing the risk of anemia and menstrual problems. Athletes, especially women, have higher iron requirements due to losses during menstruation and increased metabolism. Therefore, special attention to iron intake is crucial to maintain optimal performance in sport.Item SUPLEMENTACIÓN PROTEICA COMO AYUDA ERGOGÉNICA EN EL DEPORTE DE ALTO RENDIMIENTO(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Nutrición y Dietética, 2024-09-25) Urbina López, Alex Andrés; Hidalgo Morales, Kattyta PatriciaAthletes in training and other people who increase their physical activity also increase their muscle mass and therefore need supplementary proteins during this period.(OMS, 1975) General objective: To analyze the consumption of protein supplements as an ergogenic aid in high performance sport. Methodology: A literature review will be conducted in Spanish and English from 2018 to 2023 of scientific articles, postgraduate thesis articles, scientific journal publications in PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, SciELO. Results: There are studies showing that the use of ergogenic aids such as protein supplements help the stimulation of muscle fibers and muscle and tendon recovery post-training. Conclusions: In order to carry out protein supplementation, the type of supplement to be given to the athlete, the additives that such supplement may have and the adequate amount so that it does not represent a risk to his health or an adverse effect to the expected one must be analyzedItem Evaluación de conocimientos, actitudes y prácticas sobre ayudas ergogénicas nutricionales en estudiantes que asisten al gimnasio de la Universidad Técnica de Ambato(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Nutrición y Dietética, 2023-08-01) Andrade Huertas, Freddy Santiago; Llangari Zurita, Mirian Isabel ND.The nutritional ergogenic aids are a set of intakes that aim to improve the sports performance becoming currently an indispensable complement of the athletes or physically active persons due to the physical wear and tear to which they are subjected during their training. Nowadays, it has been popularised at international level its indiscriminate use and without professional control making them a health problem by not having adequate dosage according to the type of activity and the needs of the athlete, becoming ineffective and even detrimental to the optimal state of the person. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes and practices on nutritional aids in students attending the gymnasium of the Technical University of Ambato. A descriptive cross-sectional study was programmed through a CAP survey of 10 questions, respectively, to determine the behavior of the population toward the problem described. It was hoped to determine the state of knowledge on the subject, the attitudes and practices they present after their use, and the use of them. Obtaining as a result that only 39.4% has an optimal level of knowledge of which the female sex was the predominant one. It is concluded that there is scientific knowledge about the nutritional aids, but they are not professionally prescribed and are used in an unconscious way. The highest consumption is creatine and protein powder
