Varun Dhawan’s Instagram profile is proof that he is a fitness enthusiast who takes care of his mental and physical health. Perhaps this is why he pays a lot of attention to what he eats and what he doesn’t. In a recent conversation, the actor said that he stopped consuming black coffee in the morning because he was having stomach problems. Soon after, a nutritionist responded to her claims, saying it was not true. Now, Varun has responded to the expert saying that he is glad that health experts can use him as an example to educate people.
A few days ago, Varun Dhawan was in conversation with Ranveer Allahabadia, in which he talked about not consuming black coffee as it can cause acidity and stomach problems. But soon after watching the clip, nutritionist Prashant Desai criticized the actor’s claims on his Instagram stories.
In his statement, Desai told that this is not true as he has been drinking black coffee on an empty stomach after waking up in the morning for 15 years and he has not had any kind of problem. He further explained, “The truth is that everyone’s gut is as different as your fingerprint. But to say that everyone will have stomach problems and acidity is not true. @varundvn might have got acidity and it did happen. Food is personal. What doesn’t work for someone doesn’t become a universal truth.”
Soon after, the Student of the Year budding actor replied saying that it didn’t work for him, but he is happy that it didn’t affect his health and he is super fit. Having said that, he immediately highlighted that what he said is not that one size fits all. “I am glad that sir you can use me as an example to educate people, but please also give them some tips. Always a pleasure to learn from an expert,” said Varun.
During the interview, when the host asked the Bhediya actor if he drinks black coffee, he replied saying that he used to drink it earlier but not anymore. Now he consumes blonde roast because it is easiest for the intestine to digest. Sharing the reason behind this, Varun said that he stopped drinking black coffee because it upset his stomach. He further added, “Look, if you wake up in the morning and start with only black coffee, even if you don’t have stomach problems, you will start drinking.” When the host says he does, Varun advises him not to do so.
Varun Dhawan further said that if someone starts his day with black coffee then it will cause a lot of acidity. He suggested having something to drink first and then coffee. But first of all, if someone drinks black coffee in the morning, it has a negative effect on them. The actor further explained that coffee is fake energy anyway.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Varun is working on Sunny Sanskari’s Tulsi Kumari with Janhvi Kapoor.
