DEMI MOORE'S AGE-DEFYING BODY due to PILATES & A VEGAN LIFESTYLE




Actress Demi Moore has been in the news a fair bit lately, as she reportedly offered to help ex-husband Ashton Kutcher with his newborn baby. How very considerate and yet a little strange! However, what we want to comment on is Moore's amazingly toned physique, which she maintains through regular Pilates workouts and a mostly raw, vegan eating plan. 


The stunning 51-year-old actress discovered the benefits of Pilates during her 40s and has never looked back. Moore used to punish herself daily with 6 plus mile runs (9.6 kilometres). She also regularly lifted weights and did long-distance cycling for up to two hours a day. Since starting Pilates and changing her high-impact workouts to low-impact, Demi's body has become leaner and fitter. 

The age-defying actress knows that a healthy diet must be combined with consistent exercise to maintain her trim physique. Moore follows a mostly raw, vegan eating plan that includes fruit, green juices, smoothies, soups and organic vegetables. Raw food enthusiasts believe that consuming greens, nuts and seeds heated below 118 degrees fahrenheit (47 degrees celsius) preserves the vitamins and minerals in the food. 

Despite her incredible body, Moore has suffered from poor body image for most of her life. "I have had a love-hate relationship with my body. I sit today in a place of greater acceptance of my body. And that includes not just my weight, but all of the things that come with your changing body."

Demi recently revealed in a magazine interview that beauty and being 'thin' never made her feel truly happy. "I had an extreme obsession with my body. I made it a measure of my own value. I tried to dominate it, which I did, and I changed it multiple times over. But it never lasted, and ultimately it didn't bring me anything but temporary happiness." May this be a mantra for all women to remember!

DEMI MOORE IS AGE-DEFYING AT 51 due to PILATES & RAW EATING




Actress Demi Moore recently revealed that her amazingly toned 51 year-old body would not look the way it does today without regular Pilates & Yoga classes and healthy eating. Moore's age-defying slender physique has been maintained since she stepped out in 2013 with a very toned figure for her comeback role in Charlie's Angels (see above). Demi reveals that she has been doing consistent Pilates and Yoga classes for the past several years, as well as following a strict eating plan, which keeps her body looking like that of a very fit 20 year-old. 

Moore eats a mostly raw and vegan diet that consists of vegetables, fruits, green juices, smoothies and soups. Some sources say that a raw diet has been proven to slow down the ageing process. Pilates is also a fabulous anti-ageing workout, as it builds lean & toned muscles, decreases stress and provides one with enhanced core strength. 

The taut actress admits that she used to be obsessed with being skinny and would punish herself with daily workouts of running 6 miles (almost 10 kilometres) , lifting weights and cycling. Demi reveals that her body actually became slimmer and more toned when she reduced her intense cardio workouts during her 40s and took up low-impact exercise regimes Pilates & Yoga. 

Moore reveals in a candid interview with Harper's Bazaar that she had "a love-hate relationship" with her body for many years. "I had an extreme obsession with my body," Demi recalls. "I made it a measure of my own value. I tried to dominate it, which I did, and I changed it multiple times over. But it never lasted, and ultimately it didn't bring me anything but temporary happiness."

Nowadays, Moore has a much healthier relationship with her 50 plus body. "I sit today in a place of greater acceptance of my body. And that includes not just my weight, but all of the things that come with your changing body as you age. I find peace when I don't see my body as my enemy, when I step back and have appreciation and look at all that my body has done for me." We are so glad to hear this positive attitude and hope that all ladies who read this can take something away from this.
