This study is looking at how education and metabolic testing can change adolescent female athletes' attitudes about eating carbohydrates. Many female athletes don't eat enough carbohydrates, which are important for energy. Researchers want to see if a 45-minute educational session, or that session combined with a 20-30 minute metabolic test (where you walk on a treadmill with a mask to measure breathing), can help improve these attitudes. You might be able to join if you are a female athlete between 13 and 19 years old, a non-smoker, and currently enrolled in an IMG Academy sport. The study will measure changes in your attitudes about carbohydrates using a questionnaire given at the start and again two weeks later. The study aims to enroll 60 participants, but its current status is unclear.

Study design

This interventional study plans to enroll 60 female participants aged 13-19. It compares the effects of education alone versus education combined with metabolic testing.

What's involved

You would participate in either a 45-minute educational session or that session plus a 20-30 minute metabolic test. You would also complete a questionnaire at the start and again two weeks later.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Your attitudes will be re-evaluated two weeks after the initial visit.
