Bruce Lee's diet

This article is an article that the editor of Muscle.com found on an overseas Chinese website. It is very valuable. I would like to commemorate a generation of martial arts masters.

Bruce Lee was a martial arts master, a kung fu movie star, and a senior physique sculptor. He firmly believes that diet plays a vital role in building body shape. Although he is not a nutrition expert, he has read various fitness magazines, tried different dietary methods himself, and finally found the best diet to help shape his body shape.

1. Do not eat powder

Generally speaking, Bruce Lee did not eat any food made from refined powder, nor did he eat toast, biscuits, or cakes. He said these were "empty calories." It is worth mentioning that many people now suffer from acute gastroenteritis due to eating too much refined food. His point of view is: If a food is not beneficial to the body and only provides calories, then don’t eat it. This is very similar to what the Buddhist scriptures say: You should eat in moderation and only eat enough to stay healthy. Too much food will block the smooth flow of breath, make the body tired, drowsy, and lifeless. Just as overeating is bad for your health, being hungry can also have bad consequences. ?Hunger makes the body thin, the eyes are dull, and the whole body is weak. Everyone should control their food intake according to their own needs.

2. Chinese food

Bruce Lee liked Chinese food the most. He said Western food was tasteless. His favorite Chinese dishes include beef in yak sauce and tofu. He also likes to eat steak and pork liver, but what he advocates most is that Chinese food is nutritionally balanced, while Western food puts too much emphasis on the intake of protein and fat, and ignores the intake of carbohydrates from vegetables, rice, etc.

3. Do not eat dairy products

Bruce Lee didn't like dairy products. He ate milk powder instead of fresh milk just to absorb protein.

 4. Eat smaller meals more often

Bruce Lee not only paid attention to diet structure, but also paid attention to the portion and frequency of eating. He eats four to five meals a day. Many bodybuilders now do this, eating a small meal every four hours to supplement the protein needed by the body. Protein is an essential nutrient for muscle growth and repair. butEating too frequently will also increase the burden on the stomach and eventually lead to indigestion. This is why frequent snacking is not good for your health.

5. Drink protein drinks

Bruce Lee drank one to two cups of protein drinks a day, plus fruit juice. Although there are many types of proteins, they mainly fall into the following categories:

Non-instant milk powder-it is said that this type of milk powder contains higher calcium than ordinary milk powder.

Eggs - eat eggs raw.

Wheat germ/wheat germ oil

Peanut butter

Banana

Beer yeast (rich in vitamin B)

Fiber sugar supplements (Fiber sugar is found in many foods, especially cereals. Fiber sugar is responsible for the health of cell membranes, especially brain cells, bone marrow, eye cells and intestinal cells.)

6. Vitamin supplements

Vitamin C

Lecitin

Vitamin E

Wheat germ oil

7. Drink fruit juice and other carbohydrates to replenish carbohydrates

For people who exercise at high intensity, carbohydrates are the main source of energy. He often drinks fresh fruit and vegetable juices to replenish his energy. He often mixes carrots, celery, bananas, etc. into juice and drinks it.

8. Honey and ginger

He often drinks honey and ginger because it can quickly replenish energy in a short period of time. Royal jelly is rich in vitamins, pantothenic acid, and minerals. According to traditional Chinese medicine, ginger can replenish qi, accelerate qi and blood circulation, and enhance physical fitness.
