Hello and welcome to PE Buddy's latest online course on Nutrition!

Have you ever heard the phase "You are what you eat?" Well, it's true! All of you is made up of what you've eaten throughout your lifetime!

This course focusses on basic nutrition essential for health, athletic performance and wellbeing! It covers:

• Macronutrients - Protein, Carbohydrates and Fat

• Energy - Calories and Kilojoules

• Micronutrients - Vitamins and Minerals

• Legal sports supplements - Bicarbonate Soda, Creatine and Caffeine

Not only will you learn what is in the food you eat every day, but you'll also gain the knowledge to change your food to suit your life goals; whether that is to lose weight, gain muscle, run further, play better at your sport, have more energy or be more healthy all round!

Nutrition is key to a long, healthy and happy life, but most people don't have a clue what they are putting in their bodies. Don't be one of those people!

You need to know the basics of nutrition and how to get the important macronutrients and micronutrients!
