Eating Healthy – ‘The Japanesey Way’

One of her major secrets to a healthy diet is to eat like the Japanese! We’re all aware that the Japanese are the healthiest people on earth, aren’t we? And the credit goes to their delectable yet healthy cuisine. Hence, her diet majorly consists of seafood, tofu and sushi, a bowl full of soup with a side of poached mushrooms and assorted, leafy vegetables. Not only does this diet give her enough energy from all the proteins, iron, vitamins and minerals present in high quantities but also balances her heart health and blood pressure due to its low cholesterol value. It’s filling and delicious yet devoid of unhealthy fats.

What’s more, is that just like the Japanese, she prefers to eat her food poached, steamed or baked rather than grilling or frying it in deep oil. Now, isn’t that a sensible choice?

Breakfast

A bowl of nutritious oatmeal (savoury or sweet) or three scrumptious and gooey, egg whites between two toasts, followed by a cup of tea. Sometimes, she also loves indulging in kandha poha!

Lunch

A piece of chicken/seafood, some vegetables and a few carbs. She believes that a sizeable amount of carb is necessary to keep you well-energised for any physical activity that might take place during the day. Hence, she prefers to eat rotis made of bajra – rich in antioxidants and beneficial for eyes, skin and heart – instead of those made of wheat. She avoids eating rice entirely.

Mid-Meal Snack

She loves consuming dry fruits to satisfy her hunger pangs. Her idea of mid-meal snacks is a combination of nuts or a bowl of curd with half a fruit.

Dinner

She likes doing an early dinner around 7 or 7:30 as it helps in digestion and promotes weight loss by burning more fat. Her meal usually comprises of a small bowl of salad with some fish/chicken.

Drinks

She’s a tea-lover and needs a minimum of two cups of chai in a day to function.

She also chooses to drink sweet, coconut water instead of aerated, soft drinks.

Desserts

She’s got a sweet tooth! And that’s exactly why she practices portion control. Her weaknesses include sweet and crunchy, caramel popcorn or homemade til ladoos.

Madhuri Dixit’s Workout Routine – BUSTED!

For her youthful and glowing skin, Madhuri gives tonnes of credit to her healthy lifestyle. She believes in working out daily and staying thoroughly motivated. According to her, eating healthy is not enough. In order to stay fit, you must choose a workout that suits you the best and then follow it earnestly. She not only pushes herself to workout every single day but includes her family/friends in the routine as well.

1. Gym-Shim Workout Regime

Like many of us, Madhuri is not really a big fan of the gym. But she tries to take out at least two days in a week to do some vigorous training. Her workout is mainly a combination of cardio, power yoga and some weight training. This helps increase her stamina, flexibility and muscle strength for all her daily activities. It also improves the mental health that allows her to stay calm and stress-free.

2. Dancing Her Way To Fitness!

Madhuri had been passionate about dance ever since she was a little child. She learned Kathak for 8 years before she became a professional dancer. No wonder her dance in every Bollywood movie remained unchallenged and unbeatable – till date! But for her, Kathak was not just a dance – it was her first love and her favourite hobby in the world. And eventually, THAT became Madhuri Dixit fitness secret!

She decided to combine her love for dance and fitness together and incorporate Kathak into her workout regime. She realised that no other activity could rejuvenate her the way dance did. So, when she did something she enjoyed, it was bound to give her a spiritual high – even more than meditation. Since then, Madhuri never looked back. She practices kathak thrice a week which keeps her healthy, happy and fit. Do you know the best part? She never gets bored! We could learn something from her, don’t you think?

3. Come & ‘Dance With Madhuri’ 

On successfully achieving her fitness goals with dance for all these years, Madhuri decided to share her groovy secret with others. In fact, she wanted to teach them how to do it right, herself!
