Guess What? Ade Rai
Guess What? Ade Rai
Aspiring hunks, take note. Asia's top body builder is keeping
in shape with the soybean cake, tempeh. Ade Rai says the food we
used to ignore is the perfect supplement to his large daily
requirement of protein during the crisis. Since the price of eggs
has soared from about Rp 2,000 a kilogram to Rp 8,000 a kilogram,
Ade has reduced his diet of 40 eggs a day to a mere 20.
"I have to take in 360 grams of protein every day. An egg
(white only) contains three grams. So actually I need 120 eggs a
day," he said, smiling.
"I think the protein in tempeh is as good as in eggs. Tempeh
isn't only high in protein but also has less fat," said the
champion, who has opened his own gym at the Atrium Senen Plaza,
Central Jakarta. (yan)
