Camila Alves, Matthew McConaughey’s wife, has been teaching their three children healthy eating habits.
The children of Hollywood star Matthew McConaughey (52) and his wife Camila Alves McConaughey (40) have healthy eating habits. The Brazilian model revealed how she taught her offspring “E! News”. In her new children’s book “Just Try One Bite” (in German: “Try just one bite”) she shows the eating style of the McConaugheys. Even if the parents have not always been a good role model for the children Levi (13), Vida (12) and Livingston (9).
The three would have caught their mother stealing chocolate from its hiding place on a high shelf in the pantry. Camila not only taught her children about healthy eating, but was also inspired by them. “They encouraged me to keep going and find better versions, so my choice now is vegan chocolate,” she said. The Oscar winner and the model, who have been married since 2012, generally don’t need to remind their little ones about healthy snacks.
“If the kids want something that’s not good for them, I say, ‘Hey, I’m not going to tell you not to have it. But look at the list of ingredients.'” Less nutrient-dense foods are also not prohibited . You just want your kids to know what’s in it. Nevertheless, the mother of three herself says: “We are in no way perfect.” Your children are allowed to have an ice cream once in a while, just not every day.
Practice early
Her Texan husband was taught early on to eat sweets in moderation. There were no limits set for the model in childhood. That’s why she’s struggling with sugar today. She is certain: “If we start this early, then we are most likely preparing our children for lifelong good habits.”
