The movie star then went on to share a long list of some of the things she had to abandon for the sake of her health, including rice, meat, bread, caffeine, pasta, noodles and more.
In her words:
“So I'm currently on a holistic journey to shrink fibroids. That means I have to go on what I call a fibroids diet and these are some of the things I’ve had to give up. Red meat, so lamb, cow, ram, goat, sausages, processed meat, any form of red meat. White carbs, so white pasta, noodles, rice, bread. Dairy, so cheese, whole milk. Refined sugar, so cookies, cake, condiments, processed food in general. Carbonated drinks, caffeine, high sodium foods like soy, things that are really high in salt.”
Speaking further, Okojie shared the reason behind cutting off some of her favourite things to eat. According to her, they are high in estrogen and would make her fibroids grow.
She said:
“We are avoiding these things because they are high in estrogen and you don’t want that because those make the fibroids grow. All of these are useless if you’re not keeping your stress levels down, but I live in Lagos, God help me.”
