According to Sport, Cristiano Ronaldo's former chef Giorgio Barone revealed that Ronaldo's diet consists mainly of organic, natural ingredients rather than expensive foods. Barone highlighted fish, chicken, beef, eggs, avocados, coconut oil, and black rice as staples.

Ronaldo, who plays for Al Nassr, trains daily and consumes approximately six meals a day, totaling around 3,200 calories. The report also stated that he follows a routine of five short naps daily and uses cryotherapy to aid muscle recovery.

Barone said: "You have to look after your body like you look after a Ferrari." He also noted that when cooking for Ronaldo and his family, he strictly controls sugar, fat, and carbohydrates.

The report noted that Ronaldo's diet is individually managed by nutritional experts, focusing on high-quality protein and natural foods. Fish is a significant part of his diet, with common choices including swordfish, sea bass, and gilt-head bream, alongside lean meats, eggs, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. He enjoys the traditional Portuguese dish "bacalhau à Brás," made with shredded cod, onions, potatoes, and eggs. He avoids ultra-processed foods, frozen foods, and refined sugars.

Ronaldo typically eats every three to four hours, consuming about six meals daily. The report also stated that he uses a 90-minute sleep cycle and often divides his sleep into five short naps throughout the day. During periods of intense competition, his total sleep time is approximately 7 hours and 15 minutes. Sleep consultant Nick Littlehales assists him in managing his rest and routine.

According to reports, Ronaldo typically sleeps 8 to 9 hours at night and takes one or two naps during the day. Whenever possible, he naps with his son Cristiano Jr. and rarely goes to bed after 11 PM. The report also mentioned that Ronaldo wakes at night to drink water and exercise before resuming sleep, and he emphasizes hydration after training.

Littlehales stated that many young athletes suffer from insomnia, anxiety, and stress. He believes that sleep helps the brain clear toxins, and insufficient sleep is linked to various neurological problems, including Alzheimer's disease.
