At the Hajduk & Römerquelle Marendin event, sports nutrition inspired by the Mediterranean diet was presented through creative dishes by Chef Ivan Pažanin. HNK Hajduk places great importance on the nutrition of its athletes, focusing on the quality of ingredients and their nutritional selection. Hajduk’s nutritionist Iva Tokić Sedlar emphasized the importance of proper nutrition in professional sports.

“It is clear to everyone, especially athletes and the growing number of recreational sportspeople, how important minerals are for a balanced diet. Römerquelle mineral water comes from a source located 250 meters underground, which gives it a unique natural mineralization, providing the perfect ratio of calcium and magnesium. Due to its combination of natural minerals, Römerquelle is the ideal water for meals and the perfect choice for refreshment after physical activity” said Iva Tokić Sedlar, Hajduk’s nutritionist.

Chef Ivan Pažanin is a promoter of Römerquelle water and did not hide his satisfaction with the event and the significance of the Mediterranean diet for everyone, especially professional athletes.

“Mediterranean cuisine is a true inspiration and can be adapted to be suitable for professional athletes. What is tasty can also be healthy, and healthy doesn't mean tasteless or boring” said Ivan Pažanin.
