Comments Off on Lara Dutta Loves Her Nuts
The 2009 International Indian Film Academy Awards

Bollywood beauty and ex Miss Universe Lara Dutta has been a vegetarian for 5 years and says she eats 5-6 small meals a day to stay healthy.

She gave Mid-Day an example of how she might start the day before filming scenes for the upcoming film Housefull, and high protein nuts are a big part of her day.

“Breakfast usually depends on the kind of day I’m going to have. If I’m looking forward to a relaxed day at home then I stick to eating raw food, say a bowl of papaya and maybe an apple, till about noon. If I’m shooting, then I have a big bowl of porridge with some nuts sprinkled on top, or maybe an omelette made from egg whites with whole-wheat toast. I do have one rule though — the first thing that goes into my system should not be caffeine.”

Lunch consists of more nuts–but never mixed with fruit!

“I usually eat a small cube of cheese and a few nuts like badams, pistas and walnuts. I never mix nuts with dried fruits, as it doesn’t suit me. I might even eat some low-fat yoghurt.”

Dutta tries to restrain herself at dinner time, but admits she loves her pasta too!

People sometimes harp that the PETA ads for vegetarianism have little to do with eating vegetables and more with objectifying woman. Now one their “Sexiest” is even questioning the point of the contests.

“I fail to understand who makes these lists?” Kapoor said after receiving the India Today Woman Award presented by Erin Brockovich. Yes, THE Erin Brockovich, the real life busty and brainy woman who Julia Roberts played in the 2000 movie based on the real story of how an everyday gal exposed a company for their anti-environmental practices.

“Instead of featuring on these lists, I would rather receive awards such as the India Today Woman Award,” Kareena added.

Kapoor was a winner in the arts category, who said this of her achievements.

“I believe in inner strength-that’s why I was able to reach where I am. There may be competition and negativity but if you have an inner belief you can reach your goals and fulfil your dreams.”
