Shilpa enjoys home-cooked meals and insists on food prepared with pure ghee. She begins her day with a glass of lukewarm water and lemon while on a diet. She gargles her mouth with a tablespoon of coconut oil after that. Oil pulling is an Ayurvedic practice in which you whiz the oil around your mouth for five and a half minutes.
Breakfast
She never skips breakfast and eats it before leaving the house. And if she’s running late, she’ll carry her breakfast with her. She doesn’t like bread and prefers muesli with sliced apples, mangoes, and almond milk in the morning. Aside from that, she enjoys eggs for breakfast. She also occasionally enjoys broken wheat upma, idlis, and paneer bhurji toast.
Lunch

Shilpa adores vegetables and swears for their nutritional value. Ghee, in addition to vegetables, is a staple in her lunch. When it comes to lunch, she starts with a bowl of clear soup, then a portion of greens and salad, red or brown rice, and sautéed vegetables. Sometimes, she prefers mixed grains roti with vegetable curry, curd, and dal. If she craves something sweet, she has a small piece of chikki, a traditional Indian sweet made with jaggery and groundnuts, after her lunch.
Snacks
She doesn’t like long gaps between meals, so she has a healthy snack of two eggs or a sandwich with veggies and potatoes after lunch. Sometimes, she also prefers having makhana roasted in ghee. Her plate also requires a small number of fruits and nuts. Shilpa is a firm believer in the importance of what and how much you eat to maintain a healthy diet.
