Nushrat Bharucha Diet Plan
Nushrat is very particular about drinking. She said, “I begin my day with one serving of collagen in the water on an empty stomach to improve my skin’s elasticity and fight free radicals. Apart from this, I make sure to drink three to four liters of water every day, and take Omega 3 supplements too.”
To keep that metabolism ticking, Bharucha follows a high-protein, low-carb nutritional plan which is broken down into three major and two minor meals.

Also, consuming small meals at regular intervals, keeps me going.”
Health And Fitness Mantra
Nushrat truly believes in the phrase- ‘You are what you eat!” Even I agree with this notion as whatever we eat will certainly have an impact on our face and body. So, to be fit and healthy you need to eat good food. The 33-year-old actress gave utmost importance to healthy meals in an individual’s daily life and also shared some health tips for youngsters.
“Eating is as important as eating right. I feel that millennials today are very pressed for time and are constantly on the go. I genuinely wish there were 42 hours a day because I have so much work to do. Often when on the run, meals are skipped, and we feel that a meal skipped means we are not putting on any weight. But the truth is that it is a bad idea! In fact, skipping meals is not at all needed. Avoiding your lunch or dinner meals will not only make your body weak but you will end up putting on more weight in the long run. Eating regularly and the right food is equally and as important as your diet,” said the actress.
So if you are also skipping your meals in order to lose weight, stop doing that right now! There is a better and healthier way to do it. One should always eat on time and follow a healthy diet plan. Never skip your meals rather make your meals healthy.
Last but not least, “Being fit does not mean one has to be a size zero. There needs to be a balance and one needs to understand what works for his/her body type and fix their own benchmark,” added Nushrat Bharucha!
