But he also keeps teammates in check too by monitoring their caloric intake and quality of dishes.
Telles, who playing in his native Brazil with Botafogo, revealed: “Ronaldo has his own meal. The food is different, the nutritionist arrives with the plate already served.
“What does he eat? Natural things, salmon, quinoa, avocado.
“Then he keeps an eye on the other players’ plates in a healthy joke.
“At first the guys were afraid to go for dessert. We know how fit he is, how he likes to take care of himself.
“Everyone likes to follow good examples. He eats a protein after lunch. After 15 days there were about 20 proteins on the table.
“Everyone asked the nutritionist for them, to see if there was some magic in there.”
