Serum ferritin and anemia in trained female athletes

Article Abstract:

Research supports the need for detailed background information in establishing causes of iron deficiency anemia in women athletes. Low serum ferritin levels can be influenced by a wide range of variables, including body size and type of physical activity. Weight-bearing training was found to produce higher serum ferritin levels than nonweight-bearing in comparisons of rowers and basketball players.

Pre- and postgame macronutrient intake of a group of elite Australian football players

Article Abstract:

Research on elite Australian football players indicates the need for a different expression of carbohydrate recommendations. Since players' energy expenditures and individual body mass vary widely, grams per kilogram of body mass is a more appropriate formula for basing nutritional requirements, rather than on pregame or postgame carbohydrate intake percentage.
