Billionaire Richard Branson, the founder of Virgin Group, has done a great job of keeping fit in recent years. Now that he is 74 years old, he talks about the eating habits that help him look and feel young.

What does Richard Branson eat

Once upon a time 60 years ago, his teachers called him "a little lazy". The businessman now spends his time running his empire and focusing on his health through diet and fitness.

The 74-year-old now takes ice baths, follows a strict fasting diet, and has given up caffeine and alcohol, except for the occasional glass of champagne to celebrate his great success.

In a recent interview with The Sunday Times, he told how he has been eating breakfast for the past 20 years.

"Starting when I was 50 or so, I had a nutritionist telling me what was healthy. So now my breakfast consists of nuts, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, avocado, scrambled eggs, sourdough bread, smoked salmon, half an apple," Branson said.

The billionaire added that he eats a fairly large breakfast because usually by then he has already played a singles match or even completed a long bike ride.

It is thanks to this careful diet that the businessman has reduced his weight to the level he had when he was 20 years old.

Branson does not drink alcohol but only drinks water with a slice of lemon.

However, Richard allows himself three treats. On those days when he doesn't eat salmon, grains, vegetables, soup, sushi, and his sugar-free puddings, he allows himself to indulge in shepherd's pie or fish and chips with peas. And he will occasionally drink a glass of champagne for a special occasion.
