Injury prevention still includes food

Athletes who under-eat to “get lean” in-season show up with bone stress, stalled rehab, and recurrent strains. We treat that as sports nutrition next to the structural plan - not a separate diet office.

Youth athletes need food first. Supplements are a later conversation. Parents in this corridor already use the same building for concussion baselines and training.

Does nutrition really prevent injury?

It cannot prevent a bad tackle. It does change tissue capacity and how well rehab holds. That is the prevention this page is about.
