A high dietary intake of protein will also increase an athlete's need for: Low glycemic foods Fluid Fat Essential amino acids
alexira [117]

When consuming high protein, it is necessary to increase the intake of water or fluids along with it.

When a high-protein diet is taken, the athlete must increase the consumption of water or fluids as the kidneys are under strain and need to work more to get rid of excess ammonia. Protein is needed by athletes to repair and strengthen their muscles. Ammonia is the bi-product of the metabolism of protein which is converted to urea and is collected by kidneys which is then removed by the body as urine. Increased levels of ammonia can lead to permanent renal damage.

Answer:

Mevalonate is building block for the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Hence, lovastatin inhibits cholesterol production by inhibiting synthesis of mevalonate.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
