Gwyneth Paltrow Said She Became "Obsessed" With "Healthy" Eating, So Let's Talk About It
Warning: Discussion of restrictive eating. Gwyneth Paltrow shared her changing attitudes towards her diet after facing huge backlash in previous years. If you cast your mind back to 2023, Gwyneth went viral for her appearance on The Art of Being Well podcast with Dr. Will Cole. She said that her typical diet will consist of coffee, bone broth for lunch, and then an early paleo dinner. Paleo is often dubbed the caveman diet and tries to re-create what humans ate during the Paleolithic era, although there's considerable debate as to what exactly that entails. According to UC Davis Health, paleo has the potential for health risks including heart disease, osteoporosis, rickets, and bone fractures. Her words proved extremely controversial, with one dietician telling BuzzFeed that it "screams disordered eating." In response to the criticism, Gwyneth said, "This was a transparent look at a conversation between me and my doctor. It's not meant to be advice for anybody else. It's really just what has worked for me." It's worth noting that Will Cole is not a medical doctor. Well, in a new episode of The goop Podcast, Gwyneth said that it was her father's throat cancer diagnosis when she was 26 that fundamentally altered how she saw food. Surgery and radiation meant that he had a "very difficult time eating," and she explained, "It was at that time that I started wondering, through trying to see if there was anything we could do to help my father, if there was any kind of intersection between wellness and food." She then started "to research environmental toxins" and "tried to convince him to stop putting sugar in his coffee in the morning" and "to make him go gluten-free, which was a hilarious endeavor." The actor continued, "I got met with comments like, 'I'd rather be dead.'" "So no, I did not convert him to eat a more healthy diet in hopes that it would translate into longevity. But through the process, I did start to kind of experiment on myself," she added, calling herself a "guinea pig" before talking about "detoxes," "heavy metals," and "inflammation." The Goop founder further said that she has "genetic mutations" that affect her detoxing, continuing, "When I tried to eliminate [certain] things, my vitality spiked, my energy levels, clarity, et cetera. So that's what I was trying to bring into the life of my father as he was healing, to no avail." Cooking food for her father further spawned her interest in certain food, and she noted, "I went into hardcore macrobiotics for a certain time, that was an interesting chapter where I got kind of obsessed with eating very, very healthily. I think I was really trying to heal my dad by proxy and he just didn't really want anything to do with it...I might have gotten a little didactic about it, but I think I just felt so good." "I was sort of intoxicated by that idea and I still feel that way to this day. I mean, things have gotten a little more complicated with me and longer-term inflammation and health stuff," Gwyneth added. "But it's the reason Brad [Falchuk] and I became paleo a few years ago now, although I'm a little sick of it, if I'm honest, and getting back into eating some sourdough bread and some cheese. There, I said it. A little pasta after being strict with it for so long."

Gwyneth Paltrow regrets not having more children
Gwyneth Paltrow is getting candid about her past regrets. On the latest episode of "The goop Podcast," the "Iron Man" actress - who was joined by husband Brad Falchuk - openly discussed the challenges of creating a "blended family" and revealed the one regret about her own children that followed her for years. "My dad, Bruce Paltrow, used to say the only regret he had in his entire life was not having more kids." she said. "And I felt like that for a long time." Paltrow shares two children, Moses, 19, and Apple, 20, with ex-husband Chris Martin. Falchuk has two children, son Brody, 18, and daughter Isabella, 20, with his ex-wife Suzanne Bukinik. Paltrow - who divorced Martin in 2016 and married Falchuck in 2018 - said combining families was tricky in the beginning. "In an ideal world, the relationship that you have your kids in works out, and your kids never have to experience divorce or blending families or anything like that. But a lot of times, that's not the case," she said. "Step-parenting is a pretty tricky arena," the Goop founder continued. "It requires a great deal of accountability, vulnerability, understanding your triggers – and nothing quite seems to trigger somebody, especially women, like stepmothers. What seems to happen every time is the dad is in the middle. The kids are having a hard time understanding and adjusting, they don't want to let go of the family dynamic they had, and the dad is trying to appease both and play both sides." "And the woman is like: 'Hey! Your kids are having a hard time!' It's very easy to take it personally," she added. "I think women come in wanting harmony and good intentions, and it's like the dream that it all is like the 'Brady Bunch' and it blends really well. But the truth is, the only place to act out is against the stepmother – because they don't want to push the dad away." Paltrow told Falchuck that his children helped define motherhood for her. "To be maternal … actually, it was your kids who really helped me define this. When I look back, we traversed through some really rough things," she said. "The lessons you learn from your stepchildren have been really profound for me." "One of my most profound lessons that I learned from my relationship with your daughter, which is now so fantastic, is that there was testing going on," she continued. "She was testing me all the time to see at what point I would reject her. And at some point, I decided, I just need to be exactly that – the essence of maternal, without opinions, without words, without corrections." With all the kids out of the house now, Paltrow said creating their family unit has been an "amazing" journey. "You get to create something really new and beautiful out of something uncomfortable," she said. "I love that everybody in our family had the agency to help co-create what we were doing. Of course, like in every storybook, there were good things and there were rocky things – but it's been amazing for me to watch all four kids kind of grow into this and embrace it."
