Bruce Lee's diet may start with oatmeal or mixed grains, including whole grains, nuts and dried fruits. Eat moderate Chinese food, and then have some snacks. Linda said that they often eat all kinds of pasta with green salad for dinner, but their family eats more rice, vegetables and pork, chicken or seafood. "We don't often eat together," she said. "Moreover, Bruce Lee naturally likes the food in China or other Asian countries, because he likes the rich food here and the reasonable collocation of vegetables and meat. Generally speaking, vegetables usually account for a larger proportion than meat in Asian food.

Bruce Lee thinks that most western foods are the same, and there is often only one main course, but China's diet is constantly changing the main course-sometimes shrimp and vegetables, sometimes chicken and vegetables, beef (such as beef in oyster sauce, one of Bruce Lee's favorite foods), and sometimes other foods, such as tofu. There are so many kinds, try to eat as much as possible at a time, but try to eat as little as possible, instead of eating only one kind and eating a lot, so as to provide us with balanced nutrition and enjoy eating.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Bruce Lee doesn't eat western food at all or stays away from McDonald's for reasonable reasons. "Bruce Lee likes steak," Linda recalled. "Sometimes, we try other foods, usually once a week." Generally speaking, Bruce Lee prefers Asian cooking methods. In his view, Asian cooking emphasizes diversification, paying attention to the reasonable nutritional ratio of protein and carbohydrates, while typical western food emphasizes protein and fat. Bruce Lee never deliberately eats dairy products, but only puts a little in protein drinks. Bruce Lee never drinks milk, especially cheese. Linda said, "Bruce Lee can't understand why westerners like cheese."

Because Bruce Lee often carries out high-intensity professional training, he often eats snacks to replenish his strength after meals, such as rice soup (porridge), which is a China food prepared by Linda for him. The rice is cooked to look like soup. Linda will also add some animal viscera, such as liver, kidney, brain or heart. Bruce Lee also likes to eat fried noodles, especially Asian noodles, which is an excellent source of carbohydrate intake and can make him recover quickly.

As a martial artist, you only eat what you need, and you should refuse any food that is bad for the martial artist.
