In the second slide, Rahul Khanna added the details of all the ingredients used to prepare the breakfast. For the raspberry and yoghurt bowl, the actor resorted to stevia instead of sugar. Stevia is a sugar substitute made from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant. Loaded with antioxidants, stevia is known for managing blood sugar levels and promoting weight management.
Watch the full picture below:
Rahul Khanna cooked the rocket salad with extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), a healthier alternative to refined vegetable oils. Rich in monounsaturated fat and antioxidants, EVOO reduces inflammation, lowers the risk of heart disease and supports overall health. Apple cider vinegar (ACV) also went into the salad. ACV is linked to better weight management, improved cholesterol levels, and enhanced digestion. The salad ingredients were a mix of veg and non-veg components. They were: chopped cucumbers, avocados, carrots, apples, dried anchovies and sardines. Finally, it was topped with sesame oil and toasted sesame seeds. Sesame seeds are a vital source of minerals that improve bone health, immunity, and energy.
The scrambled eggs, packed with cottage cheese, were put on top of a chicken burger patty. Rahul Khanna’s beverage of the day, aka coffee, was rich, “deep, dark”. The drink also contained heavy cream, collagen and stevia. Adding collagen peptides to coffee can enhance skin elasticity and hydration. Additionally, collagen supplementation aids in bone density and joint health.
