Answer:

The best answer to the question: Super sports salads are filled with colorful vitamin-rich vegetables, carbohydrates, a lite dressing, and:___, would be, B: Protein-rich beans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sports practicing people require a lot of different nutrients, and in much higher levels, than those of us who do not practice sports, because their metabolisms, and muscle structures, depend on these nutrients not just for energy production, but also for muscle build-up. Also, because of the overuse, and overexertion of muscular fibers, the body requires that an athlete´s nutritional habits provide it with the necessary building blocks for repair of normal wear-and-tear in muscles and ligaments. As such, in a salad, apart from vitamins, fiber, carbs and some lipids, athletes need to provide their bodies with extra proteins, both animal and vegetable, thus helping the repairing system of the body be much more efficient, than when diets are poor in these macronutrients. Such sources of protein, aside from animal meat, would be beans, like soybeans.
