Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Athletes may have increased nutrient needs due to the demands of their training and recovery processes, but there is no direct evidence suggesting that vitamin loss itself is substantially greater in athletes compared to the sedentary population. Nutrient needs, including vitamins, may be higher, but this does not equate to a greater loss of vitamins.
