Most nutrition programs are usually part and parcel of an exercise program and the nutrition side is really designed to enhance energy and strength as well as lose weight. The same benefits apply to exercise programs that work to build up pool players.

The sort of billiards nutrition that will become common will not be very different from what we see in other sports. The idea will be to have a diet of energy foods and foods that will help in building up endurance for a better and longer billiards matches.
