The Spartan Diet

Описание: The Spartans dominated the Olympics and the battlefield with this SAVAGE diet:

They only ate TWO meals per day, eating wild game and nutrient-dense barley.

This contrasts with the typical Athenian diet of FOUR meals per day, focusing on wheat and vegetables with small amounts of fish.

Spartans also consumed rare Ironwort tea from high on Mt. Taygetos and made their famous Laconian Black soup.

Rich in meat, olives and fruit - a Spartan’s daily meals amounted to what was essentially a perfect paleo diet, supercharged by barley.

And I just broke this mysterious diet down in FULL on my latest YouTube video.
