However, research has only recently brought this to light. Much of the previous sports nutrition research has been conducted on males and has assumed that the nutritional requirements of females and males are the same. \u003Ca href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10210857/\">Studies\u003C/a> by the International Society of Sports Nutrition in the last few decades have highlighted distinct metabolic and nutritional needs between the sexes.

Acknowledging that an individual’s gender identity may differ from their assigned sex at birth, this discussion will center around the ways that sex and the physiological differences of the male and female anatomy, regardless of gender identity, influence nutrition.\u003C/p>","",1774541270912]
