After a successful 25-year career, former UFC veteran Alistair Overeem stated his plans to explore new opportunities and focus on promoting health in his future endeavors. As a result, the 43-year-old fighter announced his retirement from combat sports during an interview on ‘Lovin Dubai’. Overeem’s retirement gained attention due to his significant weight loss, which was a deliberate choice influenced by a nutritionist named Julian VanHoven. Under VanHoven’s guidance, Overeem embraced a vegetarian lifestyle and took supplements to cleanse his body of parasites.
He now follows a diet that includes nuts and creates an alkaline environment to prevent parasite growth. Overeem believes these changes have positively impacted his overall health. Having said that, ‘The Demolition Man’ has decided to stick around a little longer, perhaps, before he bids adieu to the sport. Days after the fighter announced his retirement, his management has come up with an exciting update.
