But the actress does it with all the love.
Actress Gwyneth Paltrow has just turned 51, but she still looks great. But how does she actually achieve that? In the brand new Happy in Shape she tells everything about her healthy lifestyle, the controversy that has arisen surrounding her lifestyle and becoming parents.
Healthy lifestyle
The fact that Gwyneth has reached 51 certainly does not prevent her from continuing to be healthy. For example, she has been in the news many times with her fairly strict diet, where her list of prohibited products seems longer than everything she does eat. No gluten, sugars, dairy, frying, alcohol, coffee, ready-made meals and so on. And this lifestyle has often caused controversy. But Gwyneth herself is no longer impressed by that. Whether it’s criticism of the stone vagina egg she promoted or her vagina candles being ridiculed, Gwyneth doesn’t care. “I’m used to it. When I first started doing yoga, people would call me a witch and say, ‘What is that, yoga?’ And now everyone is doing it.”
Comfort food
Yet the actress also loves comfort food, she reveals. However, she started looking for healthy alternatives, which she then bundled in her cookbooks. “A whole world opened up for me, because there is so much food that is healthy and tasty. I often make smoothies, black rice pudding with fruit or chicken burgers with vegan mayonnaise, wrapped in lettuce instead of between a bun. I enjoy that just as much as a normal citizen.”
Become older
Now that Gwyneth is older, she is still working hard to keep her general health as good as possible. She already started to feel the aging process itself around the end of her thirties. “Slowly I started thinking: are those wrinkles? And should I be ashamed of that? And should I be ashamed of that? No, I’m proud of my wrinkles because they mark the good and bad moments in my life. I also notice that as I get older I have started to monitor my health more by having my blood, inflammatory values and blood sugar levels tested regularly. I’m even more careful that I get enough sleep, take the vitamins and nutrients that are good for me, and so on. Staying healthy just takes a little more effort than when I was younger.” Ah!
