Disordered Eating Concerns
The purpose of this policy is:
1. To make it clear to student-athletes, coaches, and health-care providers that the Cornell University Department of Athletics and the Cornell Health view eating disorders as a serious health problem.
2. To facilitate cooperation among student-athletes, coaches and health-care providers in identifying and providing education, support and treatment for student-athletes suffering or recovering from eating disorders.

Nutritional Supplement
It is the philosophy of the Cornell University Department of Athletics and Cornell Sports Nutrition and the Cornell Healthy Eating Program that student-athletes are able to meet 100% of their nutritional needs through a balanced, nutritious fueling plan that provides for both health and performance. 

CSN promotes food as a superior method for fueling active athletes. Student-athletes and coaches must comply with the procedures above and are expected to use the services of the sport dietitian/nutritionist as directed. Following these procedures will ensure compliance with NCAA rules, and most importantly will protect the safety and well-being of student-athletes.
