Gwyneth Paltrow addresses backlash over her diet

• She explained that has been working with Dr. Cole.
• Paltrow broke down her wellness routine.

About her dietary habits, Gwyneth Paltrow is clearing the air.

After suffering criticism for overexposing what she eats in a day, the 50-year-old Goop creator addressed the outrage Friday during a Q&A session on her Instagram Story, after her episode of The Art of Being Well podcast with Dr. Will Cole.

“I think it’s important for everybody to know that I was doing a podcast with my doctor. So, this is a person I’ve been working with for over two years now to deal with some chronic stuff,” she said in an Instagram video.

The Academy Award winner explained, “I have long Covid, and the way it manifests for me is very high levels of inflammation over time. So, I’ve been working with Dr. Cole to really focus on foods that aren’t inflammatory.

“So, lots of cooked vegetables, all kinds of protein, healthy carbs to really lower inflammation. It’s been working really well,” she added. “This is based on my medical results and extensive testing that I’ve done over time.”

Paltrow said her appearance on the podcast served as “a transparent look at a conversation between me and my doctor,” adding: “It’s not meant to be advice for anybody else. It’s really just what has worked for me, and it’s been very powerful and very positive.”

The actress clarified, “This is not to say I eat this way all day, every day. And by the way, I eat far more than bone broth and vegetables. I eat full meals, and I also have a lot of days of eating whatever I want. You know, eating french fries and whatever. My baseline really has been to try to be healthy and eat foods that will really calm the system down.”

While on The Art of Being Well, Paltrow broke down her wellness routine and told Dr. Cole, “I eat dinner early in the evening. I do a nice intermittent fast. I usually east something about 12. In the morning, I’ll have something that won’t spike my blood sugar, so I have coffee. But I really like soup for lunch. I have bone broth for lunch a lot of the days.”

She noted that she tries to stay active with “one hour of movement” each day. “So I’ll either take a walk or I’ll do pilates or I’ll do my Tracy Anderson. I dry brush and I get in the sauna.”

Paltrow has drawn a great deal of criticism since then. In a pointed Instagram post, model Tess Holiday expressed her opinions to Paltrow, saying in part, “Highlighting someone who normalizes under eating is more than dangerous. It is violent.”

Meghan McCain added her voice in a new website opinion piece, writing, “Hey, knock yourself out, Gwyneth. You do you. If you want to eat one real meal a day and blow things up your butt – be my guest. But the problem is that Paltrow is not just living her best life – she’s broadcasting it out to the world and selling it on her website.”

“Let’s be clear – if what she’s selling is wellness, then I want no part of it,” added McCain, 38.
