About This Bowl

Knowing the healthy eating facts when it comes to sports nutrition can play an important role in daily eating, not only for those serious about sports and performance but also for the everyday exerciser who is looking to improve performance or achieve certain body goals.

Athletes need proper nourishment to fuel up and feel good for optimal performance, sustainable activity, and injury prevention. It's important for active people to focus on getting key nutrients from foods to help fuel their lifestyle. Certain vitamins (and minerals) are especially important for energy metabolism, the formation of red blood cells, and combating oxidative stress. In particular, high quality protein products are key to help maximise lean muscle growth and ultimately achieve your personal exercise goals. For someone who is working out or playing sport there comes an increased need for protein, which is why protein supplements are extremely popular among gym trainers and sports players. Exercise instigates muscle growth whilst protein facilitates recovery and adaptation. As we exercise, the demand of a positive protein balance and protein breakdown are increased, therefore as exercise increases so too should your protein intake.

To gain the most from your training and to help the adaptations to take place, protein is essential for muscle growth and repair, hence our Betterbowl focuses heavily on veggie protein.
