Queen Elizabeth II can safely be ranked among the long-livers of our planet. Remaining in shape even at such a respectable age is helped by a balanced diet. In addition, a significant role in maintaining health and longevity is the complete abandonment of certain products that cause significant harm to our body. chef of the royal family Darren McGrady (Darren McGrady) in one of his interviews revealed some secrets of the royal menu and singled out 9 products that the Queen never eats.
Here are the 9 forbidden products:
1. Pasta (pasta)
Even when Her Majesty gets hungry, she will never allow herself lunch or dinner in the form of harmful starches or carbohydrates. This means a complete rejection of pasta.
Instead, she will eat a large portion of salad, a baked fish or chicken with two kinds of vegetables as a garnish.
According to experts, Elizabeth's menu is one of the healthiest among celebrities. If you have signs of eating too much carbohydrate, you can follow the example of the Queen.
2. Potatoes
The Queen's diet also lacks potatoes. It is in this product contains a lot of starch, which is harmful to health.
However, with this point, it is more cautious: nevertheless it is not necessary to completely abandon the beloved product.
3. Beef steak with blood
Do you think that steak with blood is a royal dish? Then you are deeply mistaken, and the Queen would definitely not agree with you.
Her Majesty prefers well-roasted meat, says McGrady. As a side dish, the Queen chooses vegetables or vegetable salads, spinach, broccoli or zucchini.
4. White chicken eggs
The Royal Chef also confirmed the fact that Elizabeth completely abandoned white chicken eggs, choosing for her diet exclusively quail or brown chicken eggs.
The eggs from such eggs, combined with salmon and truffle for Christmas, is her Highness's favorite breakfast.
Unlike us, Europeans usually do not cool eggs, and prefer brown eggs to white, because they think that they taste better.
Perhaps, this is the strangest item of this list. The color of eggs depends on the color of the chicken and is not a quality indicator at all. White hens carry white eggs, the dark ones turn brown. Elizabeth II is too smart. Or is it chicken racism?
5. Garlic and onions
The Queen does not eat dishes that contain onions or garlic. Most likely, this is due to the fact that royal breath should always remain fresh. And if even in the original recipe dishes initially feature these two products, when preparing a meal they have to be excluded.
Once McGrady even joked about this: Her Majesty will not eat anything with a lot of garlic or onions, so as not to provoke a belch.
6. Bread with crispy crust
It is known for sure that at the request of the Queen, the bread crust must be cut before serving.
Elizabeth prefers sandwiches without the most delicious crust. At the same time, the Queen likes sandwiches with tuna, olive oil, thin slices of cucumber, as well as Bulgarian pepper. But the crust can not go on. From the royal menu this piece of bread is simply excluded.
7. Non-seasonal fruits, vegetables or berries
Non-seasonal products are also not provided for in the royal diet. All that is grown out of season is taboo for Her Majesty. This means that Queen Elizabeth II will not eat vegetables, fruits and berries if they are not grown naturally. She follows the principle of healthy eating, so she uses such products strictly according to the season of their appearance in nature.
Artificially grown products are best excluded from their menu, because, according to experts, they do not benefit the body.
McGrady says the following:
You can send strawberries to the queen every summer, and she will never say a word and eat it with joy.
However, try to include strawberries in her menu in January, and she will immediately say that she refuses to eat genetically modified strawberries.
Do you know what is growing in the seasons? Then be sure to look at the manual for seasonal products and stick to this list.

8. Banana whole
The Queen will never give up her favorite bananas, but only with one "but": she will not allow herself to eat bananas to all of us in the usual way.
In her opinion, bananas should be eaten so that from the outside it looks the most aesthetically attractive.
Queen Elizabeth II does not use bananas like a monkey. Instead, she uses a fork and a knife to cut the top and bottom of the banana, then cut the rind to pull the fruit. Then she cuts the banana into small slices. Then gently, strung a lobule at the lobule on the fork, sends them into the mouth.

9. Sweet Tea
Like any true Briton, Queen Elizabeth II can not live without a good tea with milk. Typically, the British choose the classic version - Earl gray.
The queen drinks this drink without sugar. This is how tea benefits both the figure and our health in general.
If you want to follow this old English tradition of tea drinking, give up sugar. Just add milk to this drink, as the British do, and enjoy its taste.
If you, however, do not have enough sweets, drink tea with your favorite black chocolate or dried fruit.
Here are the basic principles of the royal menu. Now that you know about them, you can also follow her example to stay in shape as long as possible.
