Gwyneth Paltrow Workout and Diet

[I eat] good proteins and lots of vegetables and not too much grain or sugar, and nothing baked.

But at the same time, you want deliciousness, you want a fun life—pleasure!

I’m basically never cleansing. Only if I’m guinea pigging something for the website. Or, I try to do one good cleanse a year.

I believe the combination of toxic load, the modern environment and nutritional deficiency makes our bodies more vulnerable to breaking down.

I really love white carbs, which is not great for optimizing your health and your energy.

I’d rather smoke crack than eat cheese from a tin.

It’s worth it to me to do that extra exercise so I can eat what I want and not think about it.

I like feeling good, and I know I feel my best when I exercise.

You can’t bottle a great workout.

You either starve yourself or you eat and you do serious cardio. But there’s no free ride.

I haven’t tried cryotherapy yet because I’m kind of scared to, but they say it’s great for pain. Our diets are so full of inflammatory foods that I think we need to do increasingly extreme things to combat it.

Sleep plays such a powerful role in determining your appetite and energy levels that I believe it should be your first priority—even before you think about your diet.

Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin. That, or a kick-ass red lipstick.

I realized life is so short and precious, you should do things that make you feel inspired, that push you and teach you something. I’d rather not have a big house, a huge closet of clothes, diamonds and a private plane, and instead a body of work that I’m proud of.

At Goop, they call me “GP the guinea pig” because I’ll try anything.

The simpler things are, the happier they are.

I try to remember as I hear about friends getting engaged, that it’s not about the ring and it’s not about the wedding. It’s a grave thing, getting married. And it’s easy to get swept up in the wrong things.
