Which syndrome is associated with the energy imbalance caused by inadequate intake and excessive expenditure in athletes?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

In considering which syndrome ties together inadequate intake with excessive energy expenditure in athletes, we evaluate each option.
Option 1: Endocrine Fatigue Disorder. While hormones and energy balance can influence endocrine function and fatigue, this name is not a standard or widely recognized syndrome used to describe the energy imbalance seen in sport contexts.
Option 2: Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S). This term specifically captures the concept of energy deficiency relative to an athlete's expenditure, encompassing a broad spectrum of physiological and performance effects, and is the established framework for addressing insufficient intake combined with high energy output in athletes.
Option 3: Overtraining Syndrome. This condition relates to excessive training load and insufficient recovery, leading to fatigue and performance decline, but it emphasizes training stress rather than the core energy deficit from intake versus expenditure.
Option 4: Glycogen Depletion Syndrome. Glycogen depletion refers to substrate exhaustion in muscles during high-intensity activity; however, naming a syndrome this way does not reflect the systemic energy imbalance between intake and expenditure that RED-S describes.

Taken together, the description of an energy imbalance driven by inadequate intake and excessive expenditure aligns most closely with RED-S, which broadens the traditional concept of energy deficiency to the sport context and its multisystem effects.
