Henry Shefflin and Noel McGrath highlight the importance of dairy in sports nutrition

HOW sports nutrition has changed. When ten-time All-Ireland hurling champion Henry Shefflin first started playing with Kilkenny, he used to make regular visits to the chipper after training.

He’s still partial to a good takeaway, he admits. Now, however, he indulges only occasionally and always at the end of a week that is filled with nutritious food and exercise.

“I must say, the good habits I picked up as a player have stayed with me,” he tells Feelgood.
