A sustainable nutrition model it is aimed to reduce environmental impact by ensuring food and nutrition security. Foods have effects on the environment. The main environmental impacts are greenhouse gas emissions, water footprint and agricultural land use. This is important in terms of affecting climate change. The environmental effects of foods of animal based are greater than those of plant based. Proteins are defined as an important nutrient in atheletes due to their effects on muscle development and muscle repair. Athletes have more energy and protein requirements than sedentary individuals. Foods of animal origin contain higher amounts and better quality protein than foods of plant origin. For this reason, the nutritional models applied by the athletes have the potential to create a high environmental impact. Athletes diversification of their diet with both plant based and animal based foods a positive effect on health and optimal sports performance. Current unsustainable nutritional systems have introduced alternative protein sources such as edible insects, edible algae and synthetic meat. Nutrition services in the organizations that athletes participate in should also include sustainability practices. This study aimed to evaluate sustainability specifically in sports nutrition.

Sürdürülebilir beslenme modelinde, besin ve beslenme güvencesinin sağlanması ile çevresel etkinin azaltılması amaçlanmaktadır. Besinlerin çevre üzerinde etkileri bulunmaktadır. Bu çevresel etkilerin başlıcaları sera gazı salınımı, su ayak izi ve tarımsal arazi kullanımıdır. Bu durum iklim değişikliğini etkilemesi bakımından önemlidir. Hayvansal kaynaklı besinlerin çevresel etkileri bitkisel besinlere göre daha fazladır. Proteinler sporcularda kas gelişimi ve kas onarımındaki etkilerinden dolayı önemli bir besin ögesi olarak tanımlanır. Sporcular sedanter bireylere göre daha fazla enerji ve protein gereksinimine sahiptir. Hayvansal kaynaklı besinler bitkisel kaynaklı besinlere göre daha yüksek miktarda ve daha kaliteli protein içermektedir. Bu sebeple sporcuların uyguladıkları beslenme modellerinin yüksek çevresel etki oluşturma potansiyeli bulunmaktadır. Sporcuların hem bitkisel kaynaklı hem de hayvansal kaynaklı besinlerle beslenmelerini çeşitlendirmeleri sağlık ve optimal spor performansı için olumlu etki göstermektedir. Mevcut sürdürülebilir olmayan beslenme sistemleri, yenilebilir böcekler, yenilebilir algler ve sentetik et alternatif protein kaynaklarını gündeme getirmiştir. Sporcuların katıldıkları organizasyonlardaki beslenme hizmetleri de sürdürülebilirlik uygulamalarını içermelidir. Bu çalışmada, sürdürülebilirliğin sporcu beslenmesi özelinde değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
