Overview

"This text discusses the growing body of information regarding the enhancement of human physical performance by dietary manipulations through ergogenesis. It balances the applications of nutritional manipulations between over zealous promoters and recalcitrant cynics. By offering a thorough review of what is known about ergogenic effects on nutrients in humans, it bridges the gap between common usage and scientific knowledge. ""Nutritional Ergogenic Aids"" covers in detail many popular product ingredients, illustrates areas awaiting future research and offers suggestions for avoiding the pitfalls of performing ergogenesis research."
