Popis: |
Consumption of supplements and the use/abuse of drugs to support athletic performance is increasingly growing. The aim of this paper is to approach the phenomenon by providing a tool to develop critical awareness of these problems. By reviewing scientific articles, we collected information on the use of licit and illicit substances among professional and non-professional athletes, showing a widespread scenario also based on false myths. The use of supplements, drugs and doping substances represents a complex and still debated issue, that deserves greater consideration among both sportsmen and health operators. A more critical and informed approach to these topics can support empowerment and a conscious use of drugs by respecting eating habits, own health and healthy lifestyles. |
