Danica McKellar Ditches Dairy For “Dancing With The Stars”
Written by Vegetarian Star on April 4th, 2014 in Actresses, Food & Drink.
Does Math whiz Danica McKellar have the formula for a flawless performance with her partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy on Dancing with the Stars?
The actress and author of several books geared to spark girls’ interest in Geometry and Algebra may not have her entire theorem mastered yet, but she does know dairy isn’t part of the equation.
McKellar told reporters after a performance on the ABC hit series:
“I don’t eat gluten, I don’t eat dairy, I don’t eat sugar really, and the only thing I drink is water.”
“I eat really, really clean. I’m very strict.”
Non-dairy milk alternatives like soy, rice and almond all offer similar nutrients to cow’s milk, including Calcium, Vitamins and protein. And they’re often much lower in fat and calories than their animal-based counterparts.
Currently, lots of brown rice and vegetables are also part of the solution, but she’s still eating “lean meats.”
Who knows, maybe one night when McKellar is focusing deeply on triangles, variables and pi, she’s make the Nobel-winning discovery that plant-based proteins can be substituted for meat in the equation, still allowing her to arrive at the same end result.
