An ideal pregame meal should include easily digestible carbohydrates as the primary source of energy along with some protein. High-fat and high-fiber foods, while part of a healthy overall diet, are less desirable before athletic events.
A pregame meal should include foods that are easily digestible carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are a key part of our diet and are often vital for those needing a quick, efficient energy source. They provide energy to the body, particularly through glucose - a simple sugar that is a component of many foods.
Fats provide more calories than carbohydrates, but they take longer to digest and can make an athlete feel sluggish or heavy during their game. High-fiber foods also provide volume and a feeling of fullness, but they may not be ideal before an athletic event as they can slow digestion and cause discomfort.
Proteins are essential as well, but they are not used as a primary energy source for physical activity. Instead, they are used to build and repair body tissues and produce enzymes and hormones. Therefore, an ideal pregame meal should focus on easily digestible carbohydrates, but also include some protein.
