At 50, Jennifer Aniston has still got one of the best bodies in Hollywood, and we’re always in envy of her flat stomach and radiant glow! We all know that this A-list actress is a big fan of yoga and Pilates to trim and tone, but it’s what Jen eats that really keeps her looking fabulous over 40.
Her rules for living a healthy and balanced lifestyle and looking so good in her forties?
“Eat as much organic fruit and vegetables as you can, keep sugar [intake] low, drink tons and tons of water, and get good sleep” the star said.
The award-winning actresses revealed that the ‘Jennifer Aniston diet’ consists six days a week she sticks to a gluten-free, low carb and high protein diet with lots of vegetables thrown in, then for one day of the week she eats whatever she wants!
Aniston once revealed to Yahoo! Food that both she and her former hubby Justin are great cooks. The couple loved to experiment with new healthy dishes at home: “Justin and I both love to tinker in the kitchen”, she said.
Despite her strict diet, the former ‘Friends’ star still likes comfort food. But, she cooks hers with a healthy veggie twist – like this tasty sounding vegetable lasagna:
“You have zucchini, eggplant that acts as a paste, and you layer it with different cheese and put it in the oven,” she told E! News.
Her ex-husband Justin Theroux also makes a mean Cabonara dish, but they substituted fatty bacon with a much leaner meat. Jen revealed, “We substitute turkey bacon for real bacon.”
If she fancies a snack, she keeps it super healthy. Her favourite is frozen grapes, which she first discovered whilst enjoying a little spa break:
“I was at a spa one time, and they gave me a little cup of frozen grapes after my mud bath soak,” she told Women’s Health.
