which of the following is a good nutrition plan for an athlete who is taking a few months off after an injury?
A) Reduce caloric intake
B) Increased caloric intake
C) Maintain caloric intake and reduce sugars
D) Adjustment to caloric intake is not needed
The best answer would be C. Maintain caloric intake and reduce sugar. Dieting will do no good when injured, but remaining at maintenance calories and eating clean will help recovery speed up a little. Sugar is less critical to other nutrients for fast recovery.
