NUTRITION

QUINOA IS CONSIDERED A “SUPER FOOD”

… BUT ATTENTION!

TEXT FERNANDA MACIEL //

The Incas referred to quinoa as chisaya mama or "mother of all grains". Quinoa is very good to have before a race because is gluten free and considered easy to digest.

Quinua (in spanish), from Quechua: kinwa, a species of goosefoot, is a grain-like crop grown primarily for its edible seeds. It is apseudocereal rather than a true cereal or grain. Quinoa is closely related to species such as spinach, beets.

04 // MAY 2013 // WEEKLY NEWS NUTRITION

Quinoa seeds contain essential amino acids and good quantities of calcium, phosphorus and iron.

Is useful for who are lactose intolerant. Because of all these characteristics, quinoa is being considered a possible crop in NASA's Controlled Ecological Life Support System for longduration human occupied spaceflights.The nutrient composition is very good

compared with common cereals. Quinoa seeds are in general cooked the same way as rice and can be used in a wide range of dishes. The protein content is high (14% by mass), yet not as high as most beans and legumes, and attention it’s still a grain, so it’s a starch. It certainly beats white bread, but it can’t hold a candle to a chicken breast.

People tout quinoa as a greasource of protein. But is true?

www.compressport.com

Take a look at Quinoa’s nutrition info: NUTRITION FACTS CALORIES 127 (532 KJ) TOTAL FAT 2G TOTAL CARBS. 23.5G DIETARY FIBER 2G PROTEIN 4.5G There are 4 calories per gram of protein and carbohydrate, so percentage-wise this works out to: • Starch: 23.5g total carbs – 2g fiber x 4kcal/gram = 86kcal of starch (68% of the calories are from carbs) • Protein: 4.5g x 4kcal/gram = 18kcal of protein (14% of the calories are from protein) Also, keep in mind that plant protein is roughly half as “complete” as animal protein (quinoa is actually better than most plant protein sources). So, you need about 2g of veggie protein to equal 1g of animal protein. So the numbers for protein above should really be halved.

On the other hand, lets check out the stats on a chicken breast: Calories 142 (593 kJ) Total Fat 3.1g Total Carbs. 0g Dietary Fiber 0g Protein 26.7g • Starch: 0g x 4kcal/gram = 0kcal of starch (0% of the calories are from carbs) www.compressport.com

• Protein: 26.7g x 4kcal/gram = 107kcal of protein (75% of the calories are from protein) Lets think that you are preparing for a race… one day before your race, for example, is better to have quinoa than a chicken breast. With quinoa you have a bit of

protein, bit of starch (carbs), bit of amino acids and it gives you an easy digest. Quinoa is brilliant.

But if you are a sportive person and would like to have more protein in your diet, you can think about a chicken breast and then quinoa.

ARIANA DORMITORIO OF TEAM

//ASIA-OCEANIA

THIS WEEK IN PHILIPPINES

KTM-NUTRISPORT MAKES A STATEMENT!

BY WINNING ALL OF THE 2 STAGES OF THE 2013 VUELTA DAGUPAN ROAD BIKE RACE, AND GOING HOME AS THE OVER-ALL FEMALE CHAMPION, SHE SHOWS EVERYONE THAT SHE IS NOT JUST A MOUNTAIN BIKE CHAMPION, BUT A ROAD BIKE RACE WINNER AS WELL.

The Vuelta Dagupan is a challenging road race in the northern part of the Philippines that runs up the winding, perilous inclines of Marcos Highway and Kennon Road.

Though this is not her first road bike race win, she went into the race as the under dog to her more seasoned lady road bike racer rivals.

Not able to train on her road bike recently due to her busy mountain bike race schedule and also unfamiliarity with the race route, she played out a game plan formulated by her father/coach, which was to just be reactive to what her rivals are going to do and refrain from attacking early and focused on the last 5 kms of the race before making any move. This she did perfectly and came out the champion once again.

06 // MAY 2013 // WEEKLY NEWS THIS WEEK IN PHILIPPINES

Barely a week after her Vuelta Dagupan road bike race, where she won all of

the two stages and crowned as the Female Champion, Ariana goes back to what she does best, which is winning mountain bike races.

She mastered once again her rivals in bagging the Female Champion trophy of the 2013 Nuvali Dirt Weekend Invitational Mountain Bike Race held

at Nuvali, Sta. Rosa, Laguna, last April 27, 2013.

At a tender age of 16, Ariana is already a force to reckon with in the local (mountain bike and road bike) cycling circuit. And Compressport is there with her through training, racing, and recovery.

Congratulations, Ariana!

We wish you continued success and more podium places in the future.

VITESSE - ENDURANCE WORLD

CHAMPIONSHIPS BOL D'OR PHILIPPE VINCENT MISS VICTORY, BUT STILL ON THE PODIUM !

2nd time in the official chrono session, the race will be very technical cause of the alternance of Rain/Sun. Not wet enough to race with soft rain tires, riders will have to take care of the grip.

After a good beginning, the Suzuki of Philippe was already fighting for the Lead, but a big crash (he touched a slippery white 08 // MAY 2013 // WEEKLY NEWS THIS WEEK IN FRANCE

line) left him on the side, scary to have his foot and hip broken.

Hopefully, he was still conscious and quickly went back to stand to repair the official Suzuki. Back in 33rd position at 15 laps of the leader, it was over...but the riders have experience and speed.

The manager quickly decided to go back on the

fight and after a long night of racing, with very good lap times, Philippe and the Suzuki crossed the line in 3rd position : on the podium once again !

Congratulations to the all Team, next race 8H of Suzuka (Check the COMPRESSPORT Stickers on the top of the helmet !!)

KRISTIN MĂ–LLER WIN THE IRONMAN LANZAROTE 2013 After her two first IM victories in Wales and UK two years ago and in Pesacar (IM 70.3 Italy) last year, it's probably the biggest and the most important success for the 29 years old german triathlete.

Beginning of this year, everything had to begin from zero because of the end of her team, the Abu Dahbi Triahlon Team around the IM world champion Faris Al Sultan.

It means new sponsors, new bike, new shoes, new goals and as we see today new motivation and new success.

With the fastest bike split of the day and a fantastic 2:58:37 run (with some problems but with her favorite socks!), Kristin finish this very tuff race, one of the hardest IM of the world, with a very comfortable gap from over 30' as 15th overall!

Thanks a lot Kristin, congratulation and see you in Frankfurt :-) www.compressport.com

CATRIN JONES Catrin Jones of Victoria, BC is off to a great start this year. 2 half marathons including the First Half in Vancouver where she ran a 1:17 and the win, and a win at the Comox half as well.

In March, Jones was fortunate to run the first ever Rift Valley marathon in the small village of Tebason, Kenya which sits at about 7000 feet of elevation. Jones stated after the event "It was an incredible experience and indeed the most unique marathon I have ever run to date. It was a small event, but the opportunity to run with the Kenyans in Kenya itself was amazing.

I would do it all over again if I could!".

Two weeks after the Rift run, (with the Comox half in between) was her first Ultra trail race. The Gorge Waterfalls 50k was absolutely perfect for an intro ultra. "The views, the trails, the weather and the support were incredible. I started out in about 6th place and managed to work my way up to 2nd during Most recently, she ran the BMO marathon in Vancouver the last 25k. On top of that, it gave me a chance with a comfortable first half and a stronger second half, she finished 3rd overall and the first Canadian woman in a time to try out the new of 2:48.18.

COMPRESSPORT R2 Jacques from Loeberen in Denmark had his first run in Compressport R2 sleeves with a first place at the Hammer trail 50km race Thanks a lot for making my 50k Trail run a lot easier with sleeves from Compressport.

During most of the race my legs actually felt really well and i could really keep up a good pace and push it hard!

There is no doubt that without sleeves my legs would have been more sore and 'heavy' during, and after the race. I finished first overall on a 50k trail-run with 1800+ meters of elevation in the time of 04:57:00 The days after the race my legs was not as sore as i might have worried - and I could begin my training a few days after!

I really look forward to get some great experiences and races with my Compress Sport Sleeves :-) The compression in CS is definately worth it!
