Changes in dietary intake, immune function and performance monitors throughout a season in professional rugby league players
Throughout a rugby league (RL) season players are exposed to a high volume of competitive fixtures. Cumulative loads and inadequate nutrition may supress immune function, which would have negative consequences for health and performance. As no study has monitored immune function and dietary intake throughout a RL season, the aim of the study was to identify the pattern of dietary intake and critical time points where immune function and selected performance monitors are compromised.
