Namita Nayyar:
Do you take a special diet or have a strict menu that you follow to remain healthy and physically fit?
Dorothea Wierer:
For me it’s important to eat healthy at the main meals which mean carbohydrates, vitamins and proteins. But I think with all these hours of training it’s necessary to eat also some sweets. Personally I never could follow a strict diet.
Namita Nayyar:
Five foods you absolutely love and five you keep to a minimum.
Dorothea Wierer:

Dorothea Wierer:
I think good skin and hair come from the right nutrition! But of course also me I don’t have a perfect skin maybe it looks on the photos like this but some days I have also spots But I use dermatological tested and natural products to hydrate and my skin in the morning and after my trainings. Sometimes we have really extreme conditions so it can be -20 or during the summer training under +30°.
And it’s important to clean the skin after training and but in some cream depends what my skin needs
For my hair I use normal solid shampoo, some oils to keep them soft and silky.
