FOREST WHITAKER – VEGETARIAN DIET
Oscar-winner Forest Whitaker has always been a hulking figure of a man who took his fans by surprise when they saw The Last King of Scotland star 80 pounds slimmer as stepped out on stage during the Oscars in March 2010. The sudden change in Forest’s physique came to be after he cut off fatty foods from his diet and decided to go full-on vegetarian, applying one of the best weight loss programs most would have a hard time following.
According to Forest, the said diet allowed him to consume more low-calorie vegetables. He added that it is a good way to lose weight and avoid health issues such as heart disease, diabetes, and several types of cancer. Forest, who is UNESCO Special Envoy for Peace and Reconciliation and SDG Advocate for the UN, in 2017, deepened his investment in the lives of former child soldiers and refugees in Uganda and South Sudan.
