Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You took part in the Galway Ironman half marathon. Such sport call for intense training. Unfold the exercises that comprise your fitness regime in everyday life?
Ms. Rosanna Davison:
The Ironman half marathon was intense but a fantastic experience and I competed as a team with two other friends. Obviously I did a lot of long-distance running to train for that, but normally I train about six days a week and focus on a combination of different types of exercise. I go to a personal trainer, Jessi Kavanagh, for weight training three times a week, and Pilates Plus Dublin for a Lagree Method Proformer class two to three times a week. Then I use the cross-trainer in our gym at home too.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You earlier followed a vegetarian diet, but then transitioned to a vegan diet. What all foods comprise your daily diet. Your advice to women in order to stay healthy and physically fit? Also, enlist your 5 favorite breakfast recipes?
Ms. Rosanna Davison:
I decided to go vegetarian in my teens as I didn’t like the taste of meat or the idea of eating animals, and I found the transition pretty straightforward. My mum eats a mostly vegetarian diet too, so we supported each other and shared our favorite recipes. Lots of yummy stews, soups, smoothies and salads! I decided to try a vegan diet when I began studying nutritional biochemistry in college. I’ve planned it properly for my own everyday needs and I find that it really helps to support my energy levels. For breakfast, I love homemade smoothies and smoothie bowls, green juice, almond milk lattes, porridge with almond butter and berries, chia seed pudding and vanilla protein pancakes made with oat flour.

You have glowing skin and long, beautiful hair – Share with us your skincare and hair care tips?
Ms. Rosanna Davison:
I like to keep it simple and focus on eating a diet based on lots of fresh, whole plant foods, healthy fats, and minimal processed foods and refined sugar. I also drink lots of water, get sufficient sleep, regular exercise and I really try to manage stress levels and emotional well-being each day too. All of that matters when it comes to looking and feeling your best. Of course, I have days when I don’t look or feel great but I’ve discovered what works well for my body and lifestyle, so try to stick to it as much as I can. That said, I do really enjoy chocolate, fries and a good party too!
