In March, Gwyneth was criticized when she revealed she usually does a “nice intermittent fast”, and follows Paleo diet principles. “I usually eat something about 12, and in the morning I’ll have some things that won’t spike my blood sugar, so I have coffee, but I really like soup for lunch,” Gwyneth said in the clip. “I have bone broth for lunch.”

After receiving the criticism, Gwyneth spoke out to clarify that she wasn’t giving anyone advice. “[It was just] a transparent look at a conversation between me and my doctor. … It’s really just what has worked for me, and it’s been very powerful and very positive,” she said.

Hilary explained her typical morning routine and favorite foods that are healthy. “I wake up really hungry. I’m obsessed with those cauliflower rounds. They’re so good. It’s made of cauliflower, but it looks like pita. … But they’re just cauliflower and, like, one other thing,” she said. “They’re super clean and I put it in the air fryer, make it hard, make it crispy. Put, like, egg salad on top of it. I’ll do that or I’ll put, like, avocado or, like, a fried egg and a vegan sausage. I’ll eat some avocado if I’m feeling time to design the perfect little thing. I do overnight oats.”

“I also eat a lot of things that are going in my kids’ lunches in the morning. So, lots of calories happen there! I was talking with my doctor and she was like, ‘What’s your morning like?’ [I said], ‘If we’re being honest, yeah, I eat a chicken nugget in the morning while I’m packing lunches and there’s one leftover.’ Pop it down the hatch,” Hilary admitted.
