Taylor Swift: what to eat before, during and after shows?


See tips and recipes to have lots of energy and enjoy every second of The Eras Tour




After a long wait, Taylor Swift has arrived in Brazil, and the fans’ euphoria is great at finally being able to experience The Eras Tour up close. And taking into account that it is a show in which you have to stand for about 3 hours, without count time in queue, right? – it is important to be prepared. To help fans tackle the marathon, we received some advice from Anhembi Morumbi nutrition teacher, Driele Cavalcante.

Before the show

A day before you need to pay attention to your diet at home and eat light foods. “For lunch and dinner I recommend our traditional Brazilian dish. Lots of salad, vegetables, rice, beans and meat or eggs. While for intermediate meals, keep fruit, yogurt and nuts available,” he explains. However, if you have to eat outside the home, “avoid raw foods, such as fish and salads, because their hygienic control is very complex and consuming them in inappropriate conditions can cause very serious gastric symptoms”.

The day of the show

When the long-awaited date arrives, the professional recommends opting for the right amount of full belly. “On the day of the show, reinforce the meal you eat before leaving the house. A breakfast with eggs, bread, fruit, oatmeal and yogurt can help you stay full longer,” he suggests.

The forecast for the blonde fashion shows, both in Rio de Janeiro (17th, 18th and 19th) and in Sao Paulo (24th, 25th and 26th), is very hot, so it is best to prepare by drinking lots of water while you parade. are you online. It’s also worth carrying dried fruit and nuts in a plastic bag – protein bars are also worth it to keep your energy up.

During the show

Three hours is not a short time, and stadiums, such as Nilton Santos and Allianz Parque, usually offer fried foods or heavy foods, such as snacks and pizza, and we know, the temptation is great, but Cavalcante asks you to be strong and resist, so, “this way you can avoid that feeling of suffocation and you can dance a lot.” And, of course, always hydrate. “Use and abuse water, consume at least 35 ml per kg of weight”, he underlines.

When I get home

After several bridges and sung choruses, a lot of movement and, probably, being (almost) voiceless, it’s time to rehydrate well, especially since the day after the show could be a Monday. “Consume 35 ml to 40 ml of water per kg of weight. This can help you return to a hydrated state after a lot of singing and dancing,” she concludes.
