Davina McCall reveals her ‘drug of choice’
In a new interview with New! magazine, Davina spoke about how she stays in shape.
“Nutrition and exercise are things I do because I want to live as long as possible. It’s not about what people think or how I look,” she told the publication.
She was then asked whether she still enjoys exercising. “I do. I suppose it’s my drug of choice,” she replied.
“Exercise is the thing that literally makes me high. I have times when I would rather do anything, but once I finish a workout, I’d happily do it all over again,” she then added.
The star previously discussed how she keeps in shape with her diet.
She told Women’s Fitness: “My food philosophy is pretty simple. I try to eat as many colours and as much raw food as I can. And because I now know a lot more about my gut microbiome, I’m trying to eat more live cultures. I’d love to say I’m as hardcore about sugar as I was after my sister died in 2012 – I’ve fallen off the wagon a little bit since then – but I’m really a lot better with chocolate.”
She added: “I’m also trying to eat less red meat and processed meat. I love sausages but I just know they’re not great for me. Sometimes, knowledge is quite depressing! I avoid all the things I grew up with, like salami and hams, which are all forms of protein, but they’re forms of protein that are possibly not suiting my body and my needs.”
