The meat you buy at McDonald’s? Or the local cow that eats grass right there? like heart and liver
“I worry about taking care of my body. I believe that eating quality food and as local as possible is the most important thing. People say that meat is bad, but… what meat? Which? The meat you buy at McDonald’s? Or the local cow that eats grass right there? Like the heart and the liver ”, explains Haaland in this documentary.
“It is an old school diet where our grandparents and parents gave us liver and heart as children to avoid anemia, because they are foods rich in iron and it is one of the main deficiencies of today’s society,” says Andrea Buceta, sports nutritionist. .
The hunger of a Viking at 6,000 calories
Today Haaland is 22 years old and consumes close to 6,000 calories daily to keep his body in top condition. For many specialists this might seem excessive, but for the height and weight of the Norwegian it is enough.
Haaland goes on to explain that he tries to sunbathe in the morning. “The first thing I do in the morning is get a bit of sunlight in my eyes; it is good for the circadian rhythm. I also started filtering my water a bit. I think it can have great benefits for my body”, explains the young Nordic promise.
