Meat Lover Danica Patrick Reveals Why She Stopped Following a Vegan Diet

Former NASCAR and IndyCar driver, Danica Patrick, is one of the most prominent female drivers in the history of motorsports. Of course, being such a popular entity means one has to be very careful about what they put in their body and how they look after it. And one way of life that a lot of celebrities have adopted is Veganism. But Patrick isn’t one of them.

Many big names such as Joaquin Phoenix, and Geezer Butler of the legendary band, Black Sabbath, have all turned vegan. In fact, Formula one royalty, Lewis Hamilton, is also vegan! However, you wouldn’t find Danica’s name on the list.

In a recent Instagram story, the former NASCAR driver talked about her journey with food, and why she isn’t vegan.

What Does Danica Patrick Eat?

Veganism isn’t Danica Patrick’s preferred diet, but she stays careful of what she eats.

On her website, Patrick revealed her everyday diet for 2013. She started her day with oatmeal, followed by egg whites with goat cheese as a snack. Then, for lunch, she used to have a Whole-grain sandwich with deli meat. This was followed by Greek yogurt with granola and fruit, and then for dinner, she used to have Salmon, rice, and veggies. However, that isn’t her food anymore.

A blood test revealed she has a very high reaction to a lot of everyday foods, especially egg whites, egg yolks, gluten, yeast, and all dairy items. So, now Danica follows a Paleolithic diet.
