He eats whole grain, fresh fruit and lean proteins available in fish such as swordfish, sea bass, sea bream and cod.
There is always a lot of salad on his plate and for breakfast, he consumes cheese, ham, low-fat yogurt, fruit and avocado toast. He considers chicken one of the magical foods: rich in protein and low in fat. He avoids carbonated drinks, eating red meats and frozen foods.
