Nutrition in the physical exercise and control of body weight
Abstract
The obesity happens when a balance loss is had between the alimentary ingestion and the energy expense. The physical exercise has been indicated as a mechanism for the reduction of the corporal fat and the weight control. It is known that an appropriate diet aids the acting, since it supplies the energy substrata and the practice of regular exercises improves the ability of the organism in using the nutrients. In general the proportions of macronutrientes of the athletes' diet are not very different from the recommendations for sedentary individuals. In function of the accentuated energy demand imposed by the physical exercise, those individuals have increased needs of calories, and great part of this energy should be to the carbohydrates costs. Besides the amount, the choice of the type of the ingested carbohydrate is important in the improvement of the physical acting and in the recovery process. However, certain carefuls should be been in the adaptation of the carbohydrates in individuals that look for the control of corporal weight. The present work has as objective verifies the amounts and the carbohydrates types used for the improvement of the acting, without causing damage for the athletes that seek the reduction of corporal fat associated with the practice of physical exercise.
