Virat Kohli Turns Vegan

India run machine Virat Kohli has been known to take his fitness and lifestyle very seriously in an effort to improve his game on the field. And the boy who loved his butter chicken and kebabs has now turned a new leaf as he has gone vegan.

As per a report, Kohli has turned to protein shakes, vegetables and soya rather than the conventional form of animal protein (meat and eggs) for over four months now. “Kohli started this diet four months ago and is feeling stronger as his digestive power has increased. He isn’t missing meat, eggs or dairy,” a source in the know of developments said. “Two years ago, when he was on a normal diet, he had said that he would go vegan if given a choice. He is now feeling stronger than before.”

Kohli s diet has had a calming influence on his personality and temperament - the results of which can be seen on the cricket field - both in his batting and leadership.

Anushka Sharma, the famous actress and Kohli s wife, had also turned vegetarian around the same time as her husband. But in Kohli s case, the change was planned well in advance. "Two years ago when he was on a normal diet he had stated that he would go vegan if given a choice. He is now feeling stronger than before," the report further said.
