Diet is indeed an important part of an athlete’s life. Even Olympic legend Usain Bolt had mentioned the importance of yam as the secret to his incredible speed at the track. Another Olympic legend, Allyson, who just created history in Tokyo, opened up about her diet to stay fit.

Felix revealed all the greens she eats to stay healthy and fit. “I usually keep breakfast light: yogurt and granola. In transit to the gym, I’ll have an acai bowl or some type of smoothie. Lunch is a salad with protein and fruit. And then for dinner (that’s my biggest meal) I eat a lot of fish, brown rice or sweet potatoes and veggies. Asparagus is one of my favorites. And zucchini.”?
