Their toned figure and disciplined lifestyle are not just admirable but incredibly aspirational to the common folk. Be it DIY face masks for radiant skin, workouts for quick abs, or a diet promising instant weight loss, if a celebrity has spoken about its benefits, it doesn’t take us too long to jump on the bandwagon.In a recent conversation with Mashable India, Soha Ali Khan and Krishna Shroff spoke at length about their fitness routines and workout staples. Talking about their dietary habits, the duo shared that even though their larger meals are healthy, the snacks push their calorie limit over the edge. “We are still good with lunch and dinner, but it’s the snacks that are not healthy,” said the Rang De Basanti actor.When Soha asked Krishna about her pre-workout meal, she replied, “I have a staple every single day. It doesn’t change. Sourdough toast with mashed avocado and then a half-fried egg on top of that,” with Soha agreeing and high-fiving her.But it healthy?Meenu Balaji, chief nutritionist at Pragmatic Nutrition, Chennai, told indianexpress.com that sourdough toast with mashed avocado and half-fried eggs is a good pre-workout choice, but it is not for everyone. Listing out the health benefits of this meal, she shared the following points:1. Lower glycemic index: It has a lower glycemic index because it contains carbohydrates, protein, and fat.2. Gluten-free: Sourdough bread has less gluten than white bread, making it an excellent choice for people with gluten sensitivities.3. Gut-friendly: Since it is made by fermenting the dough with bacteria and yeast, it supports gut health.Story continues below this ad Here are the benefits of this avocado toast (Source: Freepik)What should you be careful about?Despite the health benefits associated with this meal, Balaji suggested some tweaks to make it even healthier. “Boiled or poached eggs are a better option than fried eggs,” she said, adding that this pre-workout meal doesn’t suit every type of activity. According to her, this combination is high in fat. “Fried eggs and avocado increase the fat content of the meal. Fatty foods are hard to digest before a workout and may cause distress,” she pointed out.Timing plays a key role as well. This meal should be had at least 60 minutes before a workout to provide continued energy during training, said Balaji, adding that it is a great option for moderate endurance activity.“However, if you are training for high intensity or partaking in fast-paced activities, you can choose other pre-workout meals like Greek yogurt with fruits or a banana protein smoothie,” she suggested.DISCLAIMER: This article is based on information from the public domain and/or the experts we spoke to.
