Abstract

The study aims to investigate the impact of healthy nutrition on the performance and output of Judo wrestlers. The study sample consisted of 50 senior male and female Judo wrestlers from the Mouloudia Algerian team (MCA) aged between 19 and 30 years. We found that the senior Judo team of (MCA) relies on healthy meals from various animal and plant sources, as well as milk and its derivatives, to obtain essential energy elements such as sugars or glucose, proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. These nutrients are vital for energy production in the body and are necessary for wrestlers. This sport relies on specific weight categories, requiring wrestlers to maintain their weight to avoid disqualification in official competitions. To prevent health issues such as fatigue and anxiety during dietary periods, wrestlers seek the guidance of a nutrition specialist at the beginning of the sports season and carefully consider a healthy dietary program during general and specific physical preparation. Additionally, wrestlers consume other healthy meals rich in vitamins and minerals to enhance their performance and output.
