“The last 15 years has provided a wealth of research linking individual nutrients with brain function, mood and behaviour. Interestingly many of these nutrients also benefit immunity and can aid the concentration, judgement, decision making and hand-eye co-ordination of the player.”

-Lea Stening

Here are some of the key factors relating to these sports which must be considered when planning a nutrition programme.

  • e.g. Archery, Pistol Shooting, Golf, Bowls and Cricket.
  • Brain foods- nutrients affecting hand-eye co-ordination, concentration, accuracy, balance and judgement.
  • Maintaining blood sugars.
  • Management of hand tremors

Lea can show you how good nutrition can benefit your concentration not only in sporting endeavours but also in your academic and working life.
