Sport psychology is a specialty that employs psychological knowledge and abilities to solve difficulties related to athletes' optimal performance and wellbeing, the social and developmental elements of participating in sports, and systemic problems with sports environments and organisations. A doctorate in one of the major branches of psychology and licence as a psychologist are prerequisites for the APA to recognise sport psychology as a skill. Those who hold a doctorate in sport psychology but are not registered psychologists are not considered to possess this ability.

On the other hand, high glycaemic foods are associated with postprandial hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia, which can cause hunger and, ultimately, weight gain. Despite the fact that numerous studies have questioned whether sugar is the sole cause of diabetes (not specifically addressed in any randomized-controlled trial) or obesity, the majority of them have failed to ratify a single linkage. The primary pathological event is most likely excessive energy intake, which leads to overweight, obesity, and type 2 diabetes. These morbid conditions would not be caused by a single nutrient or sugar consumption per second. In fact, once total energy intake is taken into account, many published studies have found no link between sugar consumption and body weight.
