 | Lukaku about his diet at Inter: I reached a higher level, I did not feel stronger12-03-2021 |
Inter striker Romelu Lukaku emphasized the importance of his diet for the form he has been in since joining the club. When I came to Inter, my body was analyzed and so many things have changed since then. I eat a lot of salads and fish, which has a big effect on me. I take L-carnitine and vitamins as dietary supplements. My diet consists of a salad for lunch, lots of chicken breast and shirataki pasta. I don`t diversify much, because because of the way we play, I have to be very strong physically. Since following this lifestyle, I feel much better on the field and I am faster.
For carbs, I like to eat sweet potatoes and wild rice, but I don`t eat much pasta. Each country has its own focus on diet and I have always been a powerful player, but in Italy I have reached a higher level. I`ve never felt so strong. I reached different levels both physically and mentally. The day before a match I can afford more carbs. Hydration and sleep are very important, especially given the fact that I am getting older. After a match I eat two packets of gnocchi, but it depends on what the chef has prepared. My body absorbs them really fast and that helps. I eat and drink at the stadium in our special chair or bring food from home. I don`t sleep much after our matches, Lukaku said in the official podcast of Inter.
