Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is the continuation of our Special Issues “Research on Sports Nutrition: Body Composition and Performance” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/jfmk/special_issues/Sports_Nutrition_Performance) and "Research on Sports Nutrition: Body Composition and Performance 2.0" (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/jfmk/special_issues/Sports_Nutrition_Performance_2).
I have volunteered my time to handle a Special Issue in the Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology. This issue will focus on research in the field of sports nutrition with particular emphasis on body composition and/or performance. The aim of this Special Issue is to attract papers that address the role of sports nutrition in the field of competitive athletics as well as the general population. It is clear that sports nutrition and supplementation plays a significant role vis a vis body composition and human performance. There are several supplements with robust data to support their use such as: beta-alanine, creatine, beet root, protein, caffeine, probiotics etc. Authors are invited to submit original research papers, meta-analyses, and/or systematic reviews.
Dr. Jose Antonio
Guest Editor
