Mumbai: Bollywood veteran producer Boney Kapoor recently shared an inspiring update on his weight loss journey on his Instagram page. He posted a side-by-side photo, showcasing his transformation from 2004 to the present, with a noticeable weight reduction. The actor, who was last seen in the film ‘Tu Jhoothi Mein Makkar,’ has successfully shed 17 kilograms, bringing his weight down from 115 kg to 98 kg.

In an interview, Boney Kapoor credited the weight loss tips and guidance provided by his late wife for his remarkable transformation. He revealed that he has made significant dietary changes to achieve his weight loss goals. One of the key changes he implemented was reducing the consumption of oily foods and opting for gluten-free meals.

Additionally, he has cut down on his intake of sweets and shifted to low-sodium foods to maintain a healthier lifestyle. He admitted to having a sweet tooth that he could not completely give up. To manage this, he has limited his portion sizes when indulging in sweets.

Gluten-free meals give relief from digestive issues like bloating, diarrhoea, and abdominal pain and improve nutrient absorption. A gluten-free diet can support weight management by encouraging the consumption of whole, unprocessed foods that are naturally low in calories and fat.

Eliminating gluten may reduce inflammation in some individuals, potentially benefiting those with autoimmune diseases, arthritis, and chronic pain. A gluten-free diet promotes the consumption of a variety of nutritious foods, such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, nuts, and seeds.

Consuming low-sodium foods can help lower blood pressure, reducing the risk of heart and kidney disease. It can help reduce water retention and bloating, promoting a healthier body weight and appearance. Adopting a low-sodium diet can contribute to improved overall health, well-being, and longevity.

While there are advantages to a gluten-free diet and low-sodium foods, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian before making significant dietary changes to ensure a balanced and nutritious diet.

Unlike many others who eliminate carbs from their diet, Boney Kapoor has chosen to maintain a balanced approach by continuing to consume carbs for energy, particularly as he leads an active lifestyle. His dedication to his health and fitness is truly commendable. His transformation serves as an inspiration to many, demonstrating that with determination, discipline, and the right guidance, significant weight loss and improved health can be achieved at any age.

Boney Kapoor recently produced Ajay Devgn’s starter movie, ‘Maidaan,’ set to release in theatres on April 10th.
