March 12 2018 by , medical review by in Keto, Success stories

Alicia Vikander is the latest celebrity in the line of stars using the keto diet to get in shape. Apparently, she went on the diet to get ready for shooting ‘Tomb Raider’.

What did she eat exactly?

Since she wasn’t eating carbs, she was nourishing her body with plenty of other healthy staples: According to Vikander’s trainer, those included a lot of fish and seafood for protein, as well as “MCT oil, avocado, and coconut oil as a fat source.”

The methods actors use to get in shape for Hollywood movies are not necessarily always healthy. However, it’s still interesting that low-carb and keto diets are so widely used to help stars get in shape for the latest blockbuster movie. Personal trainers in Hollywood know what works.
