The Bruce Lee Diet - Have Heard Of It?

Obviously people associate Bruce Lee as being a master of


martial arts who appeared in many films and had quite an


amazing life. But one thing people may not be aware of is


that Bruce Lee had a very strict diet which he stuck to,


to keep him performing at the peak of his fitness. The


Bruce Lee Diet consists of various factors which we will


examine below.

Obviously before even thinking about copying the Bruce Lee


Diet, you should consult a suitably qualified medical


professional to make sure you are fit and healthy enough


to start a new diet or weight loss program.

He worked on a basis that he didn't consume any calories


or carbohydrates that had no effect on improving his fitness.


So he didn't eat many products that contained flour, such


as biscuits etc. He enjoyed eating his native western food,


so Chinese meals were eaten plentifully. He liked these


especially because of the goodness from all the vegetables


that they contain.

Another major part of the Bruce Lee Diet was that he avoided


products that contained dairy, such as milk and cheese. He


would use a powdered milk. Anything Bruce did is what is


recommended on most of the popular diets in today's society


and that is to eat small and often. Avoid having large meals


and have 4-5 small meals each day. This helps to keep a


stable metabolism and encourage weight loss.

The Bruce Lee Diet also consisted of regular high protein


drinks and also taking supplements. Obviously these have


improved a lot since those days but he regularly took vitamin


tablets and made sure he was eating a lot of protein.

Obviously the Bruce Lee Diet was limited to what was available


at the time but his diet still makes sense. That's why he


was able to remain almost fat free but with a lot of energy


which he used in his martial arts.
