In endorsing this position statement on behalf of the Coaching Association of Canada ( CAC ) , Dr. Marielle Ledoux , Registered Dietitian and Chair of CAC's Sport Nutrition Advisory Committee says , Athletes and their coaches are understandably looking for the best advice on diet and exercise performance to gain that competitive edge.Unfortunately , there is a great deal of misinformation associated with sport nutrition.As the interest in this specialized field has increased , so has the sale of performance-enhancing ( ergogenic ) aids , supplements , herbal preparations and diet aids.These products alone have little , if any , effect on achievement of top performance.At the very least , many of these substances are an unnecessary expense , and at worst , some may not be safe to use..
