Recently, actress Deepika Padukone shared a sneak peek of her pregnancy diet, stating that she prefers to eat well rather than following fad diets. Mom-To-Be, Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone opens up the secret behind her balanced diet. Scroll down to read more about it.

Deepika Padukone reveals her balanced diet

Deepika Padukone took to Instagram on July 17, 2024, and shared a collage of three pictures of delicious food items. In a lengthy letter, the actress said that although some may think she doesn’t eat well, they might be shocked to see desserts and snacks on her feed. Deepika shared the secret to her diet, advising her followers not to believe anything else they read or hear. She wrote:

“Surprised to see this on my feed? Well, I eat! And I eat well! Ask anyone who knows me. So don’t believe anything else you might hear or read. The trick? Balance, Consistency and Listening to YOUR Body. There seems to be a lot of misunderstanding around the word ‘Diet’. We often believe that ‘Diet’ means to starve, to eat less and to eat all of the things we detest.”

Deepika continued in her long letter by saying that an individual’s total intake of food and beverages is what constitutes a diet. Diaita, a Greek word meaning “way of life,” is where the word “diet” originates. Rather than partaking in trendy diets, the soon-to-be mother revealed that she has always maintained a balanced diet in her writing.

“I’ve always, for as long as I can remember, followed a ‘Balanced Diet’. And it is for me ‘a way of life’. I’ve never followed a diet that I cannot be consistent with or one that is a fad. Now, do I indulge? Of course, I do, as demonstrated above! But it most certainly isn’t my way of life. 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.”

At Anant Ambani’s wedding, Deepika Padukone flaunted her baby bump 

Deepika Padukone was recently in Mumbai for Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding. The actress looked stunning in a regal Torani outfit. She accessorised her anarkali with a dupatta that matched, and she showed off her baby bump with adorable charm. Glam makeup, an antique choker, and a hairstyle adorned with gajras completed her appearance. In contrast, Ranveer looked sharp in a classic black outfit. In a photo from the celebration, he could be seen tenderly petting Deepika’s growing baby bump.

Deepika Padukone’s prenatal yoga journey

On July 3, 2024, the expectant mother took to Instagram to share a photo of herself lying on a mat with her leg up the wall. Viparita Karani Aasan, which relieves pregnant women’s swollen ankles and feet, aching muscles, and joints, was observed being performed by Deepika. Deepika also wrote a note about yoga for pregnant women.

“I love a good workout. I don’t work out to ‘look good’ but to ‘feel fit’. Exercise has been part of my lifestyle for as long as I can remember. However, when I can’t fit in a workout, I practice this simple 5-minute routine. I do this every day, whether I work out or not. It’s especially useful after a long flight or just to decompress.”
