Justin Kestelman, a 31-year-old CEO, shared his daily food intake with dietitian Dr Joanna McMillan in an article published by Sydney Morning Herald. His routine includes drinking four litres of water throughout the day and consuming meals like overnight oats, leftover roast chicken, and homemade fish tacos. While Dr McMillan praised his strong wholefood base and protein distribution, she noted that he should aim for more vegetables to increase phytonutrient diversity. Additionally, she advised against overhydrating as four litres of water is excessive and can place extra stress on the body by forcing it to excrete excess fluid.
