Micronutrients supplement for sports people A03SB Composite food simple ** Core term *

The group includes Micronutrients (such as minerals, trace elements and vitamins) supplement for sports people. In the case of restricted food intake, as is frequently observed in weight related sports, micronutrient intake could become marginal or deficient, which would justify supplementation. Intake of a number of minerals and vitamins such as magnesium, calcium, zinc and the anti-oxidants vitamins C, E as well as carotenoids, have been suggested to be critical in relation to physical performance. The products in this group are intended to address these real or purported needs. The part consumed/analysed is by default the whole marketed unit or a homogeneous representative portion.
