If the name Maye Musk sounds familiar, it could be because she almost graced the cover of the esteemed edition of ‘Sports Illustrated’ at the age of 74 - the oldest woman to ever do so. Or it could be because her son is one of the richest people in the world.
Yes, supermodel Maye Musk is also the mother of Elon Musk and you may have seen her walking the red carpet with her son at the Met Gala. But Maye Musk is much more than Elon’s mother - she has been a model for 50 years and is also a licensed dietitian and nutritionist with two master's degrees in dietetics. She has written a book on aging that is thoughtfully called ‘A Woman Makes a Plan: Advice for Adventure, Beauty and Success’ and graced the covers of many magazines. So what does this intelligent, stunning woman eat every day to continue to delight the world at 74? Here's a look at Maye Mask's actual diet and her best advice for a healthy lifestyle.
First of all, she eats to maintain energy levels
Maye doesn't believe in skipping meals because it leads to a drop in energy. "Eat regularly, plan meals, and don't eat fast food," she said in an interview. In addition, she is a big proponent of meal planning, "I had a practice of 45 years - I was constantly seeing people. And I made them plan their meals. Because if you don't plan, the wheels fall off. "
She eats bread, eggs, tomatoes, and mushrooms for breakfast
"I love bread, it's one of my favorite foods," she told Harper's BAZAAR. She is looking for fresh, homemade whole wheat bread, and then she has some butter with scrambled eggs, tomatoes, and mushrooms. "I never skip breakfast because I'm usually hungry until 10 o'clock and I'll eat everything in sight," she says.
Lunch-salad
Lunch is usually a salad stuffed with various vegetables, she says in the video. Her salad could include lettuce, carrots, spring onions, tomatoes, onions, and chickpeas. "I like a lot of beans and peas. It's my favorite food," she says.
She eats low-fat proteins and vegetables for dinner
When she goes out to dinner, she usually orders a steak or fish, but she stretches it to last. This tactic is partly because she is a self-proclaimed bad cook, and partly because the portions in restaurants are simply too big. "Usually the portions are too big, so I will take two-thirds home with me”.
She skips the sweet drinks
She doesn't like sweet drinks because they don't have fiber, and they don't have squeezed fruit. "Let's say you drink a glass of orange juice," she says, "those are three oranges. If I told you to eat three oranges, you would be very full, but if you drink a cup of orange juice, you don't think of it as calories or food. "
