Since the start of his NBA career, LeBron James has impressed with his work ethic and the means he uses to maintain his physique. Thus, according to his own admission, he would only allow himself to break the rules he imposes once.

To stay at the top of the nutritional ladder for more than 20 years, it is better to take care of your health from a young age. LeBron James understood this well and quickly did everything possible to preserve his physical shape for as long as possible. Unlike some of his counterparts, he showed seriousness upon his arrival in the NBA and reaped the rewards years later.

Because while he saw some of his Draft comrades decline and retire, he continued to torment the opposing defenses on the floors. This, despite a game conducive to contact and therefore risky. He can, however, justify this by the crazy amount he spends to maintain his body , but also by his lifestyle specifically modeled to allow him to demonstrate such longevity.

The only harmful food LeBron would eat

Seeing him fend off the impact of time and extend his prime indefinitely, some observers inevitably wondered about James’ secret. One star athlete even went so far as to claim he used narcotics . A speech that the King has always refuted, who would only use products that are good for your health… apart from one exception. Doc Rivers states in the Bill Simmons Podcast :

 
LeBron told me that other than wine, he doesn’t put anything bad into his body. He even assured me that he carries bags of food everywhere he goes and that his diet is very chronologically regulated. There are certain times when he is obliged to eat, and others when he must not eat under any circumstances. It’s simply incredible to see.
Surrounded by chefs and nutritionists for years, LeBron attaches immense importance to his diet. He has already revealed behind the scenes of his incredible diet on match days , during which he fills up on calories, but ingests healthy foods. Despite everything, he continues to display a little guilty pleasure, namely wine, for which he has never hidden his passion.

However, we must believe that the great wines that he treats himself to and tastes regularly have not succeeded in affecting his performance. No offense to his adversaries, whom he has never ceased to disgust, even after he was 35 years old. It remains to be seen how long he will be able to maintain this incredible pace on the field and to the delight of his coaches, as well as the admiration of Doc Rivers and his many fans.

Despite the strict diet he has imposed on himself for a long time, LeBron James has obviously never tried to eliminate wine from his diet. After all, that didn’t stop him from becoming one of, if not the, greatest players in NBA history.
