MODERN STATUS OF NUTRITIONAL BIOCORRECTORS USAGE IN SPORTS: ANALYSIS OF SOCIOLOGICAL SURVEY RESULTS AMONG COACHES
Abstract
This article presents a comprehensive scientific and statistical analysis of the results of a sociological survey conducted among 350 coaches in 49 sports disciplines operating in the Republic of Uzbekistan. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the current practice of using nutritional biocorrectors (dietary supplements) in the training process, and to examine the level of coaches' knowledge regarding the chemical composition, efficacy, and safety criteria of these agents. Systematic analysis and questionnaire methods were employed during the research. The results indicated that the vast majority of coaches (84,8%) advocate for the use of biocorrectors under strict medical supervision; however, a significant portion of respondents (24%) demonstrated theoretical gaps concerning application methodology and dosing. The paper thoroughly analyzes the role of biocorrectors in athlete recovery processes and provides evidence-based recommendations for enhancing the nutritional literacy of coaching staff. The findings substantiate the necessity of developing a unified digital information and methodological platform to optimize the nutrition system in high-performance sports and ensure compliance with anti-doping regulations.
