If you were active on the internet, you have to have seen pictures of the dramatic transformation of popular singer Adele.
The 32-year-old celebrity made waves on the internet for those who don't know, with her impressive weight loss where she could lose more than 22 kilos. She appears barely recognizable in some of the pictures.
Adele's loss of weight broke the internet
Although we know that Adele followed a very strict diet and exercise schedule, her trainer also gets a lot of credit. Her trainer shares a few basic tips in a new interview which helped Adele make the cut.
How the trainer helped Adele lose her weight?
Gerasimov based in London, who has been training Adele for a few years now, is not only praise for the singer's weight loss journey but is also a firm believer that transformations "do not need to be complicated"

What is a sirtfood?
As nutritionist Rob Hobson notes, a 'sirt food' is basically a food high in sirtuin activators, which sounds like a snack taken straight out of a sci-fi movie. Sirtuins are a type of protein that protects the cells in our bodies from dying or being inflamed by disease, but the study has also shown that they can help regulate your metabolism, increase muscle and burn fat - hence the new name 'wonder food.'
How to eat in the Sirtfood Diet?
The Sirtfood Diet headline-grabbers are red wine and dark chocolate since both happen to be rich inactivators of sirtuin.
But obviously, that's not the whole picture, and you won't feel the effects by mainlining Merlot and Green & Blacks (more is the pity).
The Sirtfood Diet program focuses on upping your balanced sirtfood intake. These contain the following:
Apples
Citrus fruits
Red wine
Buckwheat
Walnuts
Dark chocolate
Medjool dates
Parsley
Capers
Blueberries
Green tea
Soy
Strawberries
Tumeric
Olive oil
Red onion
Rocket
Kale
Interestingly, coffee is another top sirtfood, which is good news if you're fed up being told to cut caffeine. Countries where people still consume a large number of sirt foods include Japan and Italy, both of which are consistently ranked among the healthiest countries in the world.

Sharing info, he also said three main items helped Adele lose weight for good:
1. A healthy Sirtfood eating plan
You are still nowhere to do this without a healthy diet plan (and sustained reading). The special and catchy weight loss diet program she adopted was much more exciting than Adele's weight loss. Adele followed the famous 'sirtfood diet,' which uses 'sirt foods,' some special foods that activate certain protein chains in the body called sirtuins. As per science, these antioxidants serve as protective agents that help delay the aging, improve the metabolism and control the body's inflammation, thus leading to the fat loss. Some common foods allowed under this program include foods like oranges, dark chocolates, parsley, turmeric, kale, and even red.
Studies have also found that the Sirt food diet can help people lose as much as seven pounds (3 kilos) in less than a week. Users be surprised to know there weren't any shortcuts to the transformation of Adele. Her instructor, Geronimo, is one of the rare trainers who don't believe in the same thing using supplements or pills but who firmly believe in hard work.
2. Daily work-out and exercise
A successful weight loss also calls for a healthy diet and exercise plan.
Adele's trainer worked with her and trained her 2-3 times a week where she spent time doing free and varied workouts to keep it fun, ranging from bodyweight and resistance band work to weight training and boxing. She also tried her hand in resistance workouts and some cardio to target all areas. Last year, the singer picked up Pilates too, which helped her get into the form she wanted.
3. Keeping a good sleep schedule
Good sleep is key to healthy living, and Adele swears by that. Being a one-on-one mother and having a proactive schedule requiring her to travel can make the singer busy, but getting enough sleep has helped her change. You combat the tension when you get a proper shut-eye, helping the muscles to relax, heal, and regenerate, as well as manage a fat breakdown. A growing adult should strive without fail to clock in 7-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep.
What else has Adele done besides this?
Adele's weight loss was impressive, needless to say, and her dedication showed good results. She also made some good dietary swaps including giving up tea:
"I used to drink ten cups [of tea] a day with two sugars in each so I was on twenty sugars a day. Now I'm no longer drinking tea and have more energy than ever before."
