Answer:

"Athletes need additional protein" is a false myth because overconsumption of protein can actually lead to weight gain. Giving the body extra work is not healthy. Vegan or vegetarian athletes can eat beans, nuts, and asian greens for high protein or can take protein in the form of tablets but do not need more than a regular protein intake to be an athlete. The overconsumption of protein can lead to weight gain because protein not only makes muscle but can also make fat. This can lead to obeisity and slow down/ make the activity harder for the person

Explanation:
