I heard carbs are good to eat before a game. I've also heard that the food you eat the day before you play is the food that really counts. Are sports drinks better then water like they claim?

A.C.T. is good. It has guarana (an adaptagen), green tea, 5 grams carbs, 22 calories, a lot of good stuff - it WILL give you energy!!!

The snack should contain 40 to 100 grams of carbohydrates, and low in fat. Too much fiber may stimulate the digestive system at an inappropriate time.
•Milk and 12 crackers, 2 tbsp. peanut butter (54 grams carb)
•Banana and yogurt (56 grams)
•Bagel with jelly and juice (83 grams)
•Cereal (1 oz.) and milk (34 grams)
•Juice and pretzels (50 grams)
•Sports drink, 16 oz (30 grams)
•Sports bar and water (20-50 grams)
•Fresh fruits such as oranges or bananas (15-25 grams per)
•Low-fat vegetable soup, chicken noodle or tomato and crackers (40-50 grams)
•Blueberry muffin or fig bars and milk (45 grams)

The night before we need to fill up on carbohydrate. The muscle stores much of that and releases it the next day. Anyhows pasta is great and many others. During the athletics we need more easily digestible carbohydrates [sugars]; fruit juice is still a world classic and brilliant. Also try creatine [it's the agent that takes fuel to the muscle].

You should eat a high carb meal the night before and lot's of water to stay hydrated. At half-time, gatorade is good to replace the electrolytes in your system to maintain hydration and energy.

I've played soccer all my life, and carbs I heard are the best. Spaghetti and things like that will give you the energy to play.

Drink gatorade, powerade and/or vitamin water. All three taste sooo good and I have found that I feel more energetic when I drink these.
