AB  - Although  research  has  shown  that  ingestion  of  carbohydrate  (CHO)  and  fluids  can  improve  performance,  this  is  not  necessarily  true  for  all  individuals  in  all  situations.  The  amount  of  fluid  and  the  amount  of  CHO  that  should  be  ingested  are  dependent  on  the  goals  of  the  individual,  the  nature  and  duration  of  the  event,  the  climatic  conditions,  the  pre-event  nutritional  status,  and  the  physiological  and  biochemical  characteristics  of  the  individual.  The  circumstances  of  each  athlete,  each  sport  and  each  competition  must  therefore  be  considered  when  choosing  what  or  whether  to  eat  and  drink;  it  is  not  possible  to  give  ‘one  size  fits  all’  advice.  In  a  few  situations,  athletes  can  get  it  wrong,  and  performance  can  suffer  if  the  type  or  amount  of  food  and  fluid  ingested  are  inappropriate.  Drinking  too  much  may  be  even  more  harmful  than  drinking  too  little  (Hew-Butler  et  al.  2008).  Inappropriate  intake  of  nutrients  can  also  contribute  to  gastrointestinal  problems  during  exercise,  and  the  symptoms  can  be  so  severe  that  they  will  have  an  adverse  effect  on  performance.  Personalisation  of  sports  nutrition  for  performance,  and  to  support  training  and  promote  recovery  and  adaptation,  is  therefore  required.
