Flaxseed for breakfast, no lunch

King Charles is known for his love of the outdoors, and often eats fiber-rich flaxseed on top of fruit for breakfast.

And this healthy lifestyle will help support the monarch’s fight against cancer in the best possible way.

In addition to eating a healthy breakfast, the king said he also regularly refrains from eating meat, fish and dairy products on certain days of the week.

As a lover of fresh food, he launched his own food brand Duchy Originals in 1990, which now operates as Waitrose Duchy Organic.

Meanwhile, a list of facts about Charles on the royal family website confirms that Charles “doesn’t eat lunch” due to his busy schedule.

Former press secretary Julian Payne also said: “The King doesn’t eat lunch. The King doesn’t eat lunch.” So an early lesson I learned when going out with him was to eat a big breakfast or bring some snack bars to stay energized.

“Working days are pretty grueling. We start with radio news headlines and a breakfast of seasonal fruit salad and seeds and tea.”

In fact, the only break in his relentless schedule is taken around 1 p.m., “not to eat, but to go outside and take a walk.”

“The king doesn’t like being indoors for long periods of time, so he always leaves the windows wide open,” Payne said.

This love of the outdoors, including hiking and camping, is thought to have been developed during his time at Gordonstoun School.

Throughout his life, Bear Grylls described him as a “die-hard adventurer” and “champion of the outdoors,” and this idea never waned.

Experts agree that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is important both in cancer prevention and during treatment.

Evidence shows that it can help manage stress and fatigue caused by cancer and its treatment, with the exception of certain cancers such as bone cancer.

Studies have shown that people who exercise during treatment not only cope better with side effects, but may also live longer.

International guidelines recommend that patients remain active and return to normal activities as soon as possible.

Charles has a reputation for being energetic and healthy for a 75-year-old and remains active, walking in the hills and gardening.

Hospital treatment is rarely necessary, except for relatively minor illnesses, recent treatment for enlarged prostates, and accidents caused by active lifestyles such as playing polo or skiing.

In fact, the many falls he suffered during his years of playing polo are believed to be the cause of the back pain that has plagued him for decades.

Tartan cushions are often a companion on royal tours, and red velvet cushions are always seen on the king’s chair at state banquets at Buckingham Palace.

During a meeting at a Sikh temple in Southall, west London, in 2003, he told the congregation they needed to be a little careful because they were sitting on a hard floor.

“I don’t think I’ve ever needed a chiropractor as much as I do today. My back isn’t quite adapted to sitting on the floor, so I might need some help getting out.” he said.

In the same year, he underwent hernia surgery at the private King Edward VII Hospital in London, which is a Royal Warrant.

In typical fashion, he took it in stride, and after being discharged from the hospital the next day, he joked to the waiting media, “Today it’s a hernia, tomorrow it’ll be healed.”

Five years later, in 2008, he underwent a minor routine surgery to remove a non-cancerous tumor from the bridge of his nose.

Most recently, in March 2020, it was reported that then-Prince Charles had tested positive for the coronavirus, but his symptoms were mild.

He continued to work from his desk while isolating in Birkhall, Aberdeenshire, away from the then Duchess of Cornwall after testing negative.

The king reported temporarily losing his sense of taste and smell and later spoke of the “strange, frustrating and often distressing” experience of being without friends and relatives during lockdown.

He contracted COVID-19 for the second time in February 2022, by which time he had received three vaccinations.

Charles was an advocate of alternative and complementary medicine, including homeopathy, and was a patron of the regulatory body, the General Osteopathic Council.

For this reason, he is urging health ministers to adopt a more holistic approach to tackling health issues, and will now implement what he calls a “regular treatment schedule” alongside what he himself calls a “regular treatment schedule.” likely to adopt this approach.
