CASE STUDY• Female athlete..way to the top• Hannah joined the track team her freshman year and

trained hard to become a lean, strong sprinter. When her coach told her losing a few pounds would improve her performance, she immediately started counting calories and increased the duration of her workouts. She was too busy with practices and meets to notice that her period had stopped — she was more worried about the stress fracture in her ankle slowing her down.

• Although Hannah thinks her intense training and disciplined diet are helping her performance, they may actually be hurting her — and her health.

What is Female Athlete Triad?

Some girls who play sports or exercise intensely are at risk for a problem called female athlete triad. Female athlete triad is a combination of three conditions: disordered eating, amenorrhea, and osteoporosis. A female athlete can have one, two, or all three parts of the triad.

What kind of diet is suitable for athlete?

What we eat has a huge impact on how our body function:A suitable diet for an athlete consist of approximately 65%

complex carbohydrates, 10 to 15% fat (preferably of vegetable origin), and 10% protein.

They have to take less milk, animal protein and fats because they are difficult to break down and use up a great amount of energy for digestion and assimilation.

Does she need to lose her weight in order to improve her performance?

Losing those few pounds generally doesn't improve performance at all because muscle required nutrients to perform optimum.

Why she is having a stress facture in her ankle?

Low estrogen levels and poor nutrition, especially low calcium intake, can lead to osteoporosis.

Does an athlete need to practice Hannah ways of life?

No, because Hannah didn’t practice a healthy lifestyle.

Why Hannah’s period had stopped?

Exercising intensely and not eating enough calories can lead to decreases in estrogen, the hormone that helps to regulate the menstrual cycle.
