Kapoor tends to eat the same foods again and again, and enjoys avocados, grilled chicken, soup, spinach, and strawberries on a daily basis. Her favorite cuisine is Japanese or Italian, and she enjoys warm brownies with ice cream for a treat. Her favorite meal? "I like a nice brunch," she tells Bollywood Spy.
Kapoor stays limber and relaxed with regular yoga sessions. "We know that accumulating evidence shows yoga is good for your body, health and mind. Yoga has been used in the treatment of anxiety conditions, depression, insomnia, eating disorders, and others," says Jonathan Greenberg, PhD, a postdoctoral research fellow in the department of psychiatry at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.
Dancing seems to come as second nature to Bollywood actors, and Kapoor is no exception. ""When you begin moving, you immediately release the brain chemicals dopamine, adrenaline, and endorphins, causing a powerful and lasting effect I call 'energized optimism,'" says Kelly McGonigal, PhD, a leading health psychologist who studies the mind-body connection, and author of The Joy of Movement. "The adrenaline makes you feel powerful, the dopamine generates hope, and the endorphins bring you joy. You've created this amazing cocktail that boosts your mood and energy, leads you to experience better social interactions, makes you more likely to progress on your goals, and lowers stress. So dancing doesn't just make you feel great in the moment. It sets you up to be a better version of yourself."
Kapoor likes incorporating regular Pilates Reformer machine workouts into her health and fitness regimen. "It's brilliant for everyone as it's an inclusive workout method," says James Shaw, Pilates instructor at Frame. "Whether you're a pro athlete, office worker or new to working out, reformer pilates will help develop your whole body."
Kapoor makes her own juice using fresh-squeezed oranges. "Oranges contain health-promoting compounds known as flavanones," says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. "Research suggests that these phytochemicals help support the body and protect us from conditions such as heart disease and cancer – they're also thought to have anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antimicrobial benefits. What's more, orange peel actually contains higher amounts of certain nutrients than the flesh, so using recipes that incorporate the zest of an orange will give your diet an extra boost."
