[Saba Sports News] According to Spanish media reports, Atlético Madrid midfielder Marcos Llorente attributes his excellent form in the Champions League to two major factors: sticking to the paleo diet over the long term. Reports state that the 31-year-old Llorente shows no signs of declining performance, which may be thanks to his paleo diet. This eating pattern consists only of foods commonly consumed during the Paleolithic era. For Llorente, ultra-processed foods such as pasta, bread and cereals are completely off-limits. Instead, he eats meat, fish, vegetables and “high-quality” cheese. Llorente admits that he follows this diet for health reasons rather than for his football career. In addition, Llorente revealed: “I stick 100% to the paleo diet. I know full well that when my career ends, I will take care of myself just as I do now, or even more so.”
The editor believes that this is a way of life and an attitude toward life. Llorente lives by it and will stick to it for the rest of his life, and he does so for his health, not because of football.
