King Charles is currently the oldest person to become King in British history. In fact almost everyone in the British monarchy has a history of long lives. Queen Elizabeth II lived to be 96 while Prince Philip died at 99. In fact the Queen Mother overtook everyone by living up to 101.

King Charles in fact follows a regimented routine to maintain his good health and a sensible eating plan as well. He is fond of plant based food and does simple exercises to stay healthy.

King Charles: The diet

According to the Independent UK, Charles always skips at least one meal a day. According to royal correspondent, Gordon Rayner, Charles views lunch as a “luxury that gets in the way of his work” and eats a “late breakfast” instead.

For breakfast the King’s favourite meal is actually cheesy baked eggs. He is also said to like Darjeeling tea with milk and honey.

One report also states that the King prefers a plant based diet in an effort to help fight climate change.

In a BBC radio station interview in October 2021, he told the Associated Press, “I haven’t eaten meat or fish on two days a week, and I don’t eat dairy products on one day a week. If more did that, you would reduce a lot of the pressure.”

Organic food

In addition the King is also fond of organic food. According to former royal chefs Darren McGrady and Carolyn Robb, the King emphasis organic food a lot. Robb said that the monarch’s farm was one of the first to be organically certified in all of UK.

McGrady also described the King as a foodie and said that he liked eating different dishes throughout the week stating that he often ate fruit for breakfast and that he definitely enjoyed savory food over sweets.

Exercise

Queen Camilla once told the BBC in an interview that King Charles’s was “probably the fittest man of his age I know”.

“He’ll walk and walk. He’s like a mountain goat. He leaves everybody miles behind.”

In addition to his long walks, Charles is also fond of something called the 5BX plan which is the Royal Canadian Air Force’s five basic exercises.

The regimen only takes 11 minutes and is designed for pilots and allows them to exercise even without access to a gym which is practical for King Charles too taking into account his busy schedule.

The workout incorporates body weight exercises such as push-ups and stretching. Apparently Prince Philip, Prince William and Prince Harry are also fond of this routine.
