Abstract | The article presents an interview with Samuel Mettler, a sports nutritionist who helped to develop the Swiss Food Guide Pyramid for Athletes. He discusses his involvement with the Swiss Society for Nutrition, the benefits of using a simple model such as a pyramid for communicating nutritional guidelines, and the difficulties inherent in crafting general recommendations which could apply to athletes from widely different sports. |
