Emma Raducanu reflects on her multiracial background and upbringing. Her dietary preferences are quite varied, and the young British woman recently opened up about her eating habits in an interview with National Geographic.

Since Raducanu and her family are close, she cherishes the memories of eating the tasty dumplings her mother and grandmother made while visiting China.

Raducanu’s weakness

Emma emphasized the value of a balanced diet for athletes. She still finds it difficult to avoid chocolate, though. She also tried to eat less steak, but since it’s actually quite good for the muscles, she still includes it in her diet.

“After a tournament, my main indulgence is chocolate. It’s probably my biggest weakness. I’d say I eat pretty healthily, but when it comes to chocolate, I really need to rein myself in. And also steak, which I don’t eat very often and went two years without having it, but more recently, I find it’s a good way to repair the muscles post-tournament. After a match, I keep it pretty clean, seeing as I have to go again the next day,”  said Raducanu.
