Nutrition is one of the most important lifestyle factors that affects the general health of the body and also the prevention, control and treatment of diseases. In the case of athletes, nutrition is also known as a factor affecting sports performance. On the other hand, one of the most important concerns of athletes in different disciplines is gaining weight and appropriate body composition or correcting it in different periods.
To search for articles used in English and Persian between 2020 and 2025, the keywords "Nutrition knowledge", "Nutrition Awareness", "Nutrition Education", "Body Composition", "Body Fat Percentage", "Body Analysis", "Fat Free Mass", "Lean Body Mass", "Nutrition Knowledge", "Body Composition" and "Fat Percentage" were searched in Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, Mdpi and Isc databases.
A systematic screening of 41 studies led to the selection of 18 eligible articles. Analysis of these studies indicates that athletes' nutritional knowledge and intervention in this regard can be related to their body composition. In most cases, better nutritional knowledge is associated with lower fat percentage, higher muscle mass and generally more appropriate weight or body mass index. In some cases, receiving education or supervision from reputable sources such as a nutritionist has a similar effect on athletes' conditions.
Better nutrition knowledge or receiving nutrition education from scientific sources can be effective in improving indicators related to body composition, including body fat percentage and muscle mass.
