Nourishing Your Body for Winter: Nutrition Tips for Harmony Sportsmen and Women

As winter approaches, it's time to adjust your diet to maximize your sporting performance. Opt for foods rich in vitamins and minerals to boost your immune system. Green leafy vegetables, citrus fruits and red berries are good choices.

Focus on lean protein sources such as chicken, fish and legumes to support muscle recovery. Don't neglect complex carbohydrates such as whole grains and sweet potatoes for a lasting supply of energy.

Stay hydrated even in cold weather. Drinking water is just as crucial in winter as it is in summer. Add hot herbal teas or soups to stay hydrated while enjoying comforting warmth.

In short, focus on vitamins, lean proteins, complex carbohydrates and maintain constant hydration. Adopt these nutritional tips to stay in top shape during the winter season.

Switzerland offers a variety of foods that reflect a healthy, balanced diet. Here are some typical Swiss foods that can contribute to optimal nutrition for you Harmony athletes:

Bircher Muesli: Invented in Switzerland, Bircher Muesli is a blend of rolled oats, fresh fruit, nuts and yoghurt, offering an excellent source of fiber, protein and essential nutrients.

Swiss cheese: Varieties such as Gruyère, Emmental and Raclette are rich in calcium and protein. They can be incorporated into healthy, high-energy dishes.

Wholemeal bread: Swiss wholemeal bread, often made from rye flour, is a source of complex carbohydrates, fibre and essential nutrients.

Fish: Freshwater fish, such as mountain trout, are an excellent source of lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids.

Swiss chocolate: In moderate quantities, high-quality, cocoa-rich Swiss chocolate can provide health-promoting antioxidants.

Rösti: This grated, cooked potato dish can be a source of complex carbohydrates, but it's important to eat it in moderation.

Local, seasonal vegetables: Vegetables such as carrots, leeks and cabbage, grown at altitude, are rich in vitamins and minerals.

Swiss wine: In moderation, Swiss wine, particularly white wine from our regions, can provide polyphenols that are beneficial to heart health.
