Really enjoyable article. She's a very smart woman! Happy 90th!
3. A healthy diet.
With gourmet food and chefs at her beck and call, you might imagine the Queen enjoying an abundance of rich foods. Quite the contrary. Her Majesty enjoys quite a simple diet according to most reports. She starts most days with a light breakfast of Cornflakes cereal with some dried fruits or nuts. Lunch and dinner are kept light, perhaps a chicken salad or some fish with vegetables, when she’s on her own. A former royal chef told People that she eats extra healthy when she’s dining informally, because she can then indulge when she’s attending a state dinner or entertaining visitors. She also avoids starchy foods like pasta and potatoes at dinner time.
