  • Programa De Suplementos Deportivos Del Instituto Australiano Del Deporte
    PROGRAMA DE SUPLEMENTOS DEPORTIVOS DEL INSTITUTO AUSTRALIANO DEL DEPORTE CAFEÍNA Apreciación global del suplemento La Cafeína o (1,3,7-trimetilxantina), es una sustancia que se encuentra naturalmente en las hojas, frijoles y frutas de una variedad de plantas, y es consumida regularmente por aprox. 90% de los adultos. La fuente dietética más común de la cafeína es el café, pero las bebidas tipo cola, las bebidas energéticas y también los alimentos y suplementos especializados para deportistas contribuyen con la ingesta de la misma. Carecemos de información exacta sobre las ingestas de cafeína diarias típicas de los australianos; sin embargo, es probable que sea de alrededor de 250-300 mg (3-5 mg/kg de masa corporal). La ingesta de cafeína ha sido vinculada con varios problemas de salud; pero no está claro si la cafeína contribuye con un mayor o menor riesgo de sufrir diversas enfermedades. Las diferentes agencias de salud de los países del mundo consideran que la cafeína sería un compuesto generalmente seguro cuando se consume en niveles bajos o moderados. Estos niveles se definen como: • Bajo: 80-250 mg/d (1.1-3.5 mg/kg de masa corporal) • Moderado: 300-400 mg/d (4-6 mg/kg de masa corporal/día) El consumo de cafeína por los niños tiene un riesgo mayor y se sugiere que los niños menores de 12 años limiten la ingesta de cafeína a menos de 2,5 mg/kg/d. El 1 de enero de 2004, la cafeína fue eliminada de la lista de prohibiciones de 2014 de la Agencia Mundial Anti Doping (WADA), lo que permitió que los atletas que compiten en los deportes bajo la legislación de WADA puedan consumir cafeína dentro de sus dietas habituales o con propósitos específicos de rendimiento.

  • Bob Hughes Vice President, Supplier Relations & Expositions
    March 30, 2018 Dear Members of the Nominating Committee: I am looking forward to our Nominating Committee during the NACS State of the Industry Summit and working with you to populate the board with qualified and diversified candidates. In the April meeting, we will select new, eager suppliers for the NACS Supplier Board. Along with deciding who the new members will be, we will have some challenges as you decide who moves up, who doesn’t and who, unfortunately, will rotate off. Decision One We promote Dave Riser to the chair. I would hope that is obvious, but we still need to vote him up. Decision Two Vice chairs in their 2nd (last term) are Tim Quinn and Drew Mize. Tim recently announced his retirement from Mars Wrigley (May 2018). With this information, we should consider promoting Drew to chair-elect. The other Vice Chair is Rick Brindle, who will be finishing just his first term and can remain Vice Chair for another year. Decision Three We currently have 21 of our allowed 25 supplier seats open (due to retirements or role changes). We like to have 1 or 2 seats open to give the supplier board flexibility to adjust and add a major CPG company or manpower if we are struggling on an initiative. We should also have two available Vice Chair seats, unless we promoted Rick which would give us three openings. The 2015 class that will term off in October 2018 are Brent Cotten and Frank Squilla. Both are very strong contributors that will hopefully find their way up to Vice Chair.

Available nearly everywhere, affordable and conveniently packaged, energy drinks represent an apparently simple solution to the worldwide exhaustion epidemic. Yet despite their widespread consumption and popularity - sales in the United States reached over $10 billion in 2012 - many questions still remain about their safety and efficacy (Meier, January 2013). To start with, most energy drinks contain ingredients that consumers are not familiar with, and that haven’t been studied for safe consumption in a laboratory environment. The goal of this whitepaper is to provide background information on what makes energy drinks different from other common sources of caffeine, examine the ingredients that give energy drinks their “boost”, and identify best consumption practices and potential safety issues.* I. What Are Energy Drinks Anyway? You might say that energy drinks are the older, stronger, jock brother of caffeinated soft drinks. They share some similarities – both are typically carbonated, contain caffeine and sugar, and are available everywhere. However, the biggest difference between energy drinks and sodas is how they are classified by the United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA).
