The passionate dedication to sports in Texas is deeply rooted in its history. The state boasts a rich high school football tradition that borders on legendary. But it`s not just football - it`s soccer, tennis, basketball, baseball, volleyball, and golf, and then the non-ball sports of running, swimming, cycling, gymnastics, and rowing, to name just a few. Chances are, if you have a child, that child is involved in at least one sport - or several! And yet, with all the attention and expertise focused on sports, parents are still concerned about their children`s - TEEN`s, in particular - participation in training and competition regarding their dietary habits…and rightly so. Adolescence is also a period of growth characterized by significant alterations in body composition, metabolic and hormonal function, organ maturation, and formation of nutrient deposits that may impact future health. Equally important, it is a vital time for establishing eating habits that will likely last a lifetime - setting them up for a healthy adulthood free of food anxieties or one possibly filled with health risks and dangerous weight-control practices.
