Basketball is a popular team sport worldwide. Nutrition is one of the key aspects for
the optimization of performance and subsequent recovery. Female athletes have unique nutritional requirements as a result of daily training and competition, in addition to the specific demands of gender-related physiological changes. However, inadequate, or erroneous nutritional
behaviours are commonly observed. Thus, the aim of our work is to provide concise nutritional
recommendations for female basketball players. Based on a review of the literature, there is
limited evidence that comprehensively assesses health attributes as well as behaviours, habits,
and nutritional knowledge of physical activity by gender in basketball players. Recent research
highlights the need for nutritional strategies to develop tools to help manage energy deficiency
in women’s sports. We suggest that individual adjustment of dietary energy value is the key
factor in the physical performance of female basketball players; information that could be used
to optimize the training process and health maintenance. The recommended intake for athletes
involved in moderate levels of training, such as elite basketball players (2-3 h/day for 5-6
times/week), is 50-80 kcal·(kg·day)-1, with specific recommendations of 1.6-1.8 g·(kg·day)-1
protein. For physically active women, it is recommended that 1.2-2 g·(kg·day)-1 of protein be
consumed, with fat intake of 20-35% of total kilocalories and 5-8 g·(kg·day)-1 of carbohydrate
to adequately meet performance demands.
