  • - I'm Gwyneth Paltrow and this is everything I eat in a day.

  • (rhythmic playful music)

  • First thing I do when I wake up is oil pulling

  • with coconut oil.

  • So I have raw organic coconut oil.

  • I put a spoonful in my mouth while I'm opening curtains

  • and everything, I'm sort of swishing it around.

  • It's an Ayurvedic way to remove bacteria from the mouth.

  • And them I usually have a large glass or two of water.

  • And then I sit down with my computer at the kitchen table

  • before the kids wake up.

  • And then I have coffee and some quiet time with my husband.

  • And we sort of catch up on email and news

  • and then I wake my kids up.

  • I'm not a big breakfast person.

  • I'll eat brunch sometimes late on a weekend.

  • But, after I take my kids to school,

  • I go straight to the gym.

  • And I always have a big thing of water at the gym,

  • and I put two of our Gloop Glows in there

  • for our Vitamin C and for skin.

  • And I'm obsessed with that stuff.

  • It's like my morning kind of orange juice.

  • After that, I go to the office and shower.

  • And then sometimes I will get a smoothie from somewhere.

  • So I try to have a smoothie that has some good fat

  • and some protein and some fiber.

  • So sometimes I'll have like a cacao

  • and almond butter smoothie with some spinach

  • and some protein powder.

  • My favorite supermarket called Erewhon is pretty close

  • to the office and they have amazing smoothies there.

  • So sometimes I'll have like a more green smoothie

  • or sometimes if I'm in a rush, I just eat these delicious

  • peanut butter protein bars which I can't remember the name

  • of them but you have to keep them in the refrigerator.

  • I eat them all the time.

  • I can't remember the name though.

  • If I'm hung over, which does happen occasionally,

  • although very occasionally at this point,

  • 'cause A, I'm too old to not hold my liquor,

  • and B, I'm too old to have a hangover,

  • then I try to eat something like you know,

  • an egg sandwich or something that will sort

  • of help me through it.

  • You can always get an IV too,

  • that's a very good hangover drink.

  • I usually have lunch at about between 12 and 12:30

  • at the office.

  • So I'm usually eating for lunch stuff that you would see

  • on the Goop website like a salad with some protein.

  • Or sometimes they're testing something

  • really fun for detox.

  • You know, they're using jicama for taco shells.

  • You know, they'll do like a really clean version

  • of a turkey burger with some kind of great sauce

  • that's very healthy and wrapped in lettuce

  • or something like that.

  • Usually at about three or four, I'll hit the snack cupboard

  • at the Goop office.

  • Maybe I'll have some cashews or pretzels

  • or something like that.

  • But I usually need something salty and crunchy

  • in the afternoon and then I'll usually have a cup

  • of green tea with that and then that will hold me

  • through till dinner.

  • And then for dinner, you know, my kids love Asian food,

  • so we'll have some kind of Asian fish,

  • noodles on the side.

  • My daughter's vegetarian,

  • so we always have one kind of vegetarian entree.

  • You know, one pot dinners are great.

  • On the Goop website, we developed a bunch

  • of one pot dinners so those are really great

  • for weeknights as well.

  • I mean, let's see, what's my favorite one?

  • There's one that we've been doing a lot recently

  • which is like chicken in a dutch oven with lots

  • of winter vegetables underneath and potatoes.

  • Really easy kind of but super delicious.

  • We try to eat early.

  • It depends on the day.

  • Sometimes my daughter has something kind of later

  • and then my son has water polo from seven to 8:30.

  • So sometimes we're sitting down right at 6:15.

  • But I like to eat dinner on the early side.

  • I always feel like I don't sleep very well

  • if I go to sleep very full.

  • So I've gotten real geriatric about that

  • like six, 6:30 dinner time.

  • It feels good.

  • I've been trying not to drink so much on week nights

  • because it's such an easy habit to fall into.

  • It's like you've had a stressful day and it almost is more

  • about the ritual of it.

  • But sometimes work is tough and you just need one.

  • So I usually have a Gibson.

  • That's kind of my new thing which is like a vodka martini

  • but with the cocktail onions.

  • It's very my father.

  • Or, I'll have whiskey on the rocks

  • like a Japanese whiskey on the rocks usually.

  • So, basically I'm turning into an old Jewish man.

  • I've pretty much become more of an omnivore.

  • So there are just a few things that I won't eat.

  • I don't like dill.

  • I can't stand dill.

  • I don't like to eat baby mammals,

  • so I stay away from lamb and veal.

  • I don't eat octopus 'cause they're super smart.

  • One night I got on this, I went down this internet K hole

  • on octopus and how smart they are

  • so I had to stop eating them.

  • Hm, cheap meal, oh,

  • it's hard to name just one cheap meal.

  • I love french fries which is a well known fact.

  • French fries are sort of my favorite meal,

  • not that they're a meal.

  • They're technically a side,

  • but I guess I could eat them for a meal, and I would.

  • And I love, I do love pasta, I really do.

  • My favorite french fry in L.A. is at this grocery store

  • called, Santa Monica Seafood and they have

  • this little counter where you can go and just have oysters

  • and french fries or delicious salmon burger they have.

  • And you can have a nice dry glass of wine.

  • And they have my favorite french fries in L.A.

  • But it definitely smells like fish in there.

  • It's a fish market, so it's not for the fish sensitive.

  • My dad really got me into food.

  • He was an extreme foodie.

  • He loved food so much.

  • He had a pretty humble background.

  • And so when he grew up and became successful

  • and was able to go to restaurants and travel for food,

  • it was like to him the most extreme pleasure and luxury.

  • And he appreciated it so much and so I think he really

  • infused my brother and I with that incredible love

  • and appreciation for food and good ingredients

  • and the experience of eating with people you love.

  • And that's a day of eats for me.

  • Thanks for watching.

  • (quiet upbeat music)

- I'm Gwyneth Paltrow and this is everything I eat in a day.
