“…The results of our study show that the physician was seen as the most frequently consulted (%84.6) and reliable (96.5%, neutral and more) source of doping knowledge by the athletes. Our findings are in contradiction with previous studies on French high school athletes and Iranian athletes, who declared their peers and coaches to be the primary sources about doping (Seif Barghi, Halabchi, Dvorak, & Hosseinnejad, 2015;Backhouse, Kenna, Robinson, & Atkin, 2007). It is important to note that physicians have the potential to influence athletes with regards to doping information.…”

The use of prohibited substances in the world of sport, in and out of competition, is a major global problem. A number of similar studies have been conducted in other parts of the world that investigate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of athletes about doping. The results of those studies cannot entirely be extrapolated to elite Turkish athletes. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate elite athletes' current knowledge of appropriate drug use, doping and use of supplements, and to explore the need for further education on these topics. A total of 202 Turkish athletes participated in this descriptive cross-sectional study. The data were collected through a questionnaire. A five-point Likert scale was used for questions. The most commonly used over-the-counter medications by athletes were painkillers (78.2%). A remarkable proportion of athletes considered painkillers (41.1%), protein powder (43.1%), and caffeine (41.1%) to be prohibited drugs. According to the athletes, physicians (84.6%) and coaches (78.6%) were the two most frequently used sources of information, and 87.6% of the athletes found the physician to be the most reliable source of information. Elite athletes have poor knowledge about doping in Turkey. There is an urgent need for educational anti-doping programmes to address the knowledge gaps observed amongst athletes in this study.

This paper aims to present a review of the concept doping in scientific journals published in the period 2008 to 2018. The diversity of approaches that position doping as a socially acute question (SAQ) allow us to recognize the implications of this concept in educational contexts. The state of the art methodology seeks to reflexively recover production on the meaning that is attributed in the literature to the knowledge, practices and social, political and educational implications of a subject as complex as doping. Among the trends found, the Analytical Chemistry approach is highlighted, associated with the studies carried out in the laboratories on techniques and methods for the detection of prohibited substances; the consequences in terms of costs and benefits of doping from biochemical and physiological studies; the set of ideas, conceptions and representations that people have against doping; the educational programs and the pedagogical proposals that study the psychological, epistemological and methodological foundations for the prevention of doping; and the legal aspects, public policies and debates around doping and competition rules.

“…They cautioned them about doping and its consequences. A study also reported that their respondents were concerned about the safety of supplements, although a considerable number of them considered it to be essential for success in international arena [33]. Most young athletes in a Canadian study [34] were reported to be consuming vitamin and mineral supplements only.…”

Adolescence is a transitional phase of development with the risk of adopting unhealthy behaviours, which is carried on to adulthood. Adolescent athletes tend to resort to unhealthy eating habits resulting in eating disorders and other clinical outcomes. Hence, it forms a crucial age to understand modifiable food habits and provide appropriate counselling. In India, coaches closely monitor the adolescent athletes, even concerning their eating habits due to the lack of multi-disciplinary support staff. Thus, our study aimed to understand the perceptions of coaches towards food, appetite and nutrition of adolescent athletes using In-depth interviews (IDI). Of all 14 coaches at the state-sponsored residential sports centre, 10 consented. The IDI were conducted in a standardized manner and were recorded and transcribed. They were coded manually, using the open and axial coding in the grounded theory approach to determine themes. They considered nutrition as key to performance and consumption of higher animal protein as important. Majority of them considered sprouts, dry fruits, fruits and vegetables as healthy foods, though were unable to define the quantities nor nutrients therein. Coaches considered protein as "important", while fat as "unhealthy". They also observed that athletes were avoiding fruits and vegetables, while consuming more rice. Meal timing, fluid and supplement intake were considered essential for international performance, albeit unaware of the specific requirements. Hygiene practices and peer isolation were considered to affect food intake. This lacunae in the nutrition knowledge and the modifiable nutrition practices explored can be targeted by developing a nutrition education and assessment tool for coaches and junior athletes. Further, a long-term engagement of a nutritionist with every sports academy in India is recommended.
