In a video, she shared that she prefers eating raw fruits instead of drinking fruit juices. She eats small meals frequently throughout the day, avoiding processed and fatty foods completely. Instead, she chooses green vegetables. Drinking coconut water daily is part of her routine because it boosts immunity, aids weight loss, and improves metabolism.

Madhuri also ensures she finishes dinner by 7:30 PM. Her meals typically include low-calorie, high-protein foods such as tofu, chicken, and broccoli. She drinks herbal tea regularly, which supports bone health, reduces cholesterol, and improves memory. She strictly avoids aerated drinks, caffeine, and fad diets.

Malaika Arora

Malaika’s workout routines challenge many, but she balances her intense exercise with a healthy, balanced diet. She starts every morning with a glass of warm lemon and honey water.

For breakfast, she chooses from fresh fruits, upma, idli, or multigrain toast with egg whites. Her lunch usually consists of two chapattis, rice, vegetables, and chicken, accompanied by a salad made of sprouts. Dinner is typically a bowl of soup with steamed vegetables.

She added, “Ever heard the phrase ‘you are what you eat?’ If there’s one thing I’ve learnt (the hard-ish way) is that those words couldn’t be truer.”
