NHL players are some of the healthiest and in-shape humans on the planet but what lengths do some athletes take to achieve their best?
Well, Ottawa Senators defenseman Jakob Chychrun goes pretty far, when it comes to his diet, that is. Chychrun is one of the best defenders in the league and he thanks a lot of it to his regular food intake, which is �'interesting'', for the lack of a better term.
Chychrun shared some of the wild things he eats with Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports:
''The guys think I'm crazy. My family thinks I'm crazy. My girlfriend thinks I'm crazy.''
''It's a lot of protein and I'm not really eating carbs. On game days. I'll eat some sweet potatoes, some white rice, fruit, but all my dairy stuff I try to get raw. I'm really big into that. It's like an ancestral way of living, and I'm also eating raw liver, raw beef heart, doing all this crazy stuff. The taste is awful, but your body almost craves it when you eat it consistently because it's just so nutrient dense.''
Good for him for going to those lengths to stay his best, but no thank you, that sounds absolutely disgusting!
