Resumen

El consumo de suplementos deportivos (SD) está en auge, trascendiendo a niños y adolescentes. La ausencia de estudios sobre los hábitos de consumo de SD en estas edades representa una brecha importante. El propósito de este estudio es identificar el patrón del consumo de SD en niños y adolescentes que compiten en natación, analizando los diferentes tipos de SD que emplean y evaluando si existen variaciones según la edad. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal en el participaron 148 nadadores que compiten en la Comunidad Valenciana (edad: 12,6±2,7). Para recopilar los datos de este estudio, se utilizó un cuestionario que constaba de tres secciones: datos personales y antropométricos, información sobre la práctica deportiva, y aspectos relacionados con el consumo de suplementos, incluyendo tipos, motivos, fuentes de asesoramiento y lugares de compra. El 66,9% de los encuestados informaron usar SD. El número medio de SD consumidos por la muestra fue de 2,6. La principal razón, sitio de compra y asesor elegidos por la muestra fue, la mejora del rendimiento (86,9%), las tiendas especializadas (62,6%) y los entrenadores/monitores (74,7%), Los tres SD más consumidos fueron barritas deportivas (73,7%), bebidas deportivas (69,7%) y multivitamínicos (36,4%). Este conocimiento es crucial para desarrollar programas educativos para prevenir el uso innecesario e indiscriminado de suplementos.
