The Congressional Dietary Supplement Caucus, in cooperation with the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) and the Natural Products Association (NPA), recently hosted a speaker lunch briefing, “Sports Nutrition and Dietary Supplements.” This was the fifth in a series of speaker briefings since the inception of the Dietary Supplement Caucus in 2005. “There is a great deal of misinformation that gets circulated in the press and by athletes and this is a good opportunity to hear the facts from the experts,” said John Gay, executive director and CEO, NPA. Douglas Kalman, PhD, RD, a director at Miami Research Associates, spoke to nearly 70 attendees about the importance of proper nutrition for athletes and addressed concerns regarding steroids in dietary supplements. Dr. Kalman stressed that a proper diet and maintaining proper hydration were key to athletic training. “When it comes to issues surrounding sports nutrition, I really like to drive home the point that it is food first, fortified foods next and supplements with products that are geared toward promoting health, recovery and nutrition, come after,” he noted.
