Palmeiras midfielder Gabriel Menino told the story of how he decided to eat the diet of Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo.
Gabriel Menino, Getty Images- "My weight was absolutely normal, but I wanted to change, so I asked the Palmeiras nutritionist to make me a Cristiano Ronaldo diet. The diet was as follows: breakfast - eggs and supplements, before training - supplements, for lunch - fish or salad, then an afternoon with supplements, dinner - fish and salad again, before going to bed - supplements again.
During the pre-match warm-up, I realized that I couldn't run anymore. I thought I was going to die. Five minutes into the match, I couldn't run anymore, I needed a replacement. The nutritionist saw that I was not feeling well and asked one of the masseurs to bring me some gel and isotonic supplements," said Gabriel Menino.
