Athletes today face a multitude of competing voices with health claims and products to enhance performance. This has led to both confusion and misconceptions about healthy dietary practices for athletes. Research has demonstrated that athletes do not understand the recommended nutritional requirements necessary for health. Further, improper study methods and research design can create and propagate misconceptions about how athletes view their own health and personal sacrifices. These misconceptions not only influence attitudes and recommendations by healthcare providers and coaches but can also affect legislation. Healthcare providers, coaches and trainers have the opportunity to positively influence healthy nutritional lifestyles in athletes. Research has demonstrated that the balance of expert power and referent power have been shown to emphasize personal empowerment and long term change.
如今的运动员面临着众多关于健康宣称和提高成绩产品的相互矛盾的声音。这导致了对运动员健康饮食做法的困惑和误解。研究表明，运动员不了解健康所需的推荐营养要求。此外，不当的研究方法和研究设计会产生并传播关于运动员如何看待自身健康和个人牺牲的误解。这些误解不仅会影响医疗保健提供者和教练的态度及建议，还会影响立法。医疗保健提供者、教练和培训师有机会对运动员健康的营养生活方式产生积极影响。研究表明，专家权力和参照权力的平衡已被证明能强调个人赋权和长期改变。
