Many people want to know what football players eat to stay fit and healthy. All the posh and fancy tableware they have in their kitchen never actually comes in use or do they, I am sure from the money they earn they can afford to have a butler to do their cooking? From the money they earn they probably do. Having saying that there are some football players who love to cook but what do the others do who have no clue on how to cook?

Every single football player has to eat healthy food to stay fit. They workout hard in the field and the gym so their body need food fuel. Al parts of body will require food after hard football training. They need combination of minerals, vitamins, fat and proteins to heal micro tears from exercise.

Most footballers like to drink protein shakes and eat seafood, because it contains protein after any sort of exercise. Seafood such as salmon provides protein to the body which repairs ligaments, bones and tendons. It also rebuilds muscles after a run. White meat provides more protein than the red meat, hence it is recommended to everyone who likes to stay fit and healthy not just the footballers.

Nutritionists also advise football players to eat some carbohydrates as just protein is not good for the body. Body also requires carbohydrates and some fat. Not too much fat though some peanuts everyday is good to get fat in the body.

Football players to be honest can afford to eat out every day so I am not sure if they need to worry about their daily diet. Most of them have it all planned what to eat during morning, afternoon and evening. Footballers like Zinedine Zidance, Robbie Fowler and David Beckham love cooking for themselves. Them three have huge kitchen at their premises and all types of kitchen accessories required for cooking.

Football players are not allowed to drink too much beer so they probably don't have beer glasses at their homes.
