Audrey spent World War II in the Netherlands under Nazi occupation, where food supplies ran out. This childhood malnutrition stunted her growth and changed her frame forever. It was ultimately the reason that she couldn’t pursue her dream of becoming a prima ballerina, which is what she wanted to do initially. She was so malnourished that she didn’t have the strength. It was important for me to tell audiences that Audrey was so skinny because she starved. If you look at pictures of her before the war, she looked totally different. Her body is not something you should aspire to have; she ended up that way because she didn’t have a choice – as a result of tragedy.” Taken from Harper’s Bazaar writer Ella Alexander.

The Marilyn breakfast drink makes me think of egg nog. Really it's just a protein drink before all the modern protein powder shakes.

[joannemeeks]

If we added nutmeg and cinnamon, Marilyn's egg drink would almost be like egg nog

[KarenG.-qswc]

Jackie's boiled eggs and toast for breakfast and baked potato is the most relatable for me. (Not the caviar though obviously😏 I would have grated cheese on it)🙂

[terricastaples]

Carrots are also Good for the eyesight

[nellie]

I don’t think the veggies created “lighter skin” - perhaps they were pale from anemia - not enough animal protein. Most of the diets that were veg and protein based made sense, as well as avoidance of sugar and carbs such as pastries bread and pasta. The food they consumed was not gmo nor grown in mineral depleted soil, so they could really eat all they wanted as long as sugar and simple carbs were limited (rice pasta bread sweets)

milk and egg = eggnog. delicious! excellent for females while going menopause/peri . very grounding for emotions. excellent medicine!

[megand]

I love high protein diets. My body loves it best

[DarkerMindss]

So the hot egg milk is tempered and it just makes it a super frothy and creamy kind of drink and was a popular breakfast as it contained milk and eggs so lots of protein. I never ate it as I don’t eat dairy or meat myself but my grandpa made this as well! He loved it I can still see his foamy milk mustache while enjoying it 🥹

One of my favorite topics is learning people’s daily diets, so thank you! I loved this video

[shaynalee]

Karine! You are one of the best YouTubers out there. Excellent videos always.❤

[MaeCheek]

Sophia Loren knows how to eat... I could follow her plan!

[ninawestlake]

I love this topic so much! I've been dieting, excercising since i was 14 years old. It's second nature now. I love to eat vegetables and fruits, leefy greens, eggs, sweet potatoe and cassava as much as i can. I also like dieting with yochurt, muesli and oatmeal. Sometimes i overindulge deliberately. The soul and mind needs some happy food every now and then. I mostly eat two meals a day, drink plenty of water, cut out sugar almost completely out of my diet. I feel and look great.

[valrice]

Hello! The Mediterranean Diet seems like it’s doable! 😊

[lizarrington]

If I had to choose which diet i would try, it would be Sophia Loren because i love pasta lol. She's so relatable when she said she can never give up pasta.

Btw i love your videos 😊

Remember these women lived during a time when cigarettes were extremely popular. Cigarettes are a known appetite suppressant. Trust me cigarettes and other drugs is what kept the weight off as it does today.

[cbass]

No sweet tooth here. I have a salty tooth. I eat anything salty….crave salt at times

[EarthSignEmpress]

I really want to mix Jean Harlow’s Atkins diet with Grace’s no dessert rule!! No breads, pastries, starches, just meat, veggies, & fruits..

[marionwilson]

I love how passionate you sound when you’re telling their stories. And I came here to say I love steamed carrots with a little cinnamon and nutmeg. They actually taste like sweet potatoes when cooked liked that.

[Daydreamerr]

This generation had better quality of food and life. All the food today is tryna kill us
