How Deepika Padukone approach her diet

In her March 2024 Instagram post, Deepika revealed, “I’ve always, for as long as I can remember, followed a ‘Balanced Diet’. And it is for me a way of life.” The actress emphasised that a diet should not only be effective but also sustainable over the long term. She avoids fad diets, opting instead for a practical approach that can be easily incorporated into daily life.

Does Deepika indulge while maintaining her fitness

Addressing common misconceptions about celebrity eating habits, Deepika clarified that she enjoys her food just like anyone else. “Surprised to see this on my feed? Well, I eat! And I eat well!” she exclaimed, sharing glimpses of some indulgent sweet treats. While a balanced diet forms the foundation of her routine, she doesn’t shy away from occasional indulgences, highlighting the importance of moderation and enjoying life’s simple pleasures.

Deepika’s dedication to wellness goes beyond diet. To mark self-care month, she shared a Yoga asana, Viparita Karani, with her fans, a pose known for its benefits to both mental and physical health. “But why celebrate ‘Self-Care Month’ when you can practice simple acts of Self-Care every day?” she reflected, reinforcing the value of making self-care a daily habit.
