Fans concerned about Gwyneth Paltrow’s health and her “emaciated appearance” can rest easy – rumors about the strict diet she follows have been greatly exaggerated. Recently, Paltrow was spotted at a fast food joint in New York, where instead of opting for a light salad, she ordered a hearty $35 sandwich, fries, and a large serving of ice cream. According to witnesses, she thoroughly enjoyed every dish, which contradicted the strict eating principles she herself promotes.
Two years ago, in a podcast called “The Art of Being Healthy,” Gwyneth revealed her method for staying in shape. The secret turned out to be quite simple: she practices intermittent fasting, eating bone broth for lunch and following a paleo diet for dinner, which focuses on foods that could be obtained naturally through hunting or gathering. However, rather than admiration for her discipline, the actress faced criticism, particularly for her pale complexion and for promoting and selling this lifestyle on her brand’s website.
Paltrow was forced to defend herself, explaining that she adopted a special diet due to “very high levels of inflammation” and post-COVID syndrome.
“I focused on foods that don’t cause inflammation, and it really helped. This is based on the results of my medical exams and the numerous tests I’ve gone through over time,” Paltrow wrote on her social media, emphasizing that her daily diet “isn’t meant to advise anyone else.”
She went on to explain that while her new eating habits had been “very effective and beneficial,” it didn’t mean she had given up her favorite foods.
“I eat a lot more than just bone broth and vegetables. I eat full meals. And sometimes, I have whatever I want – like fries or anything else,” she shared.
