Akshay Kumar is known for his disciplined lifestyle, which reflects in his punctuality, fitness habits, and daily routines. He consistently goes to bed by 10 pm, steers clear of late-night parties, and ensures he has dinner before 7 pm—practices he has upheld for many years.

During the recent launch of the book Your Body Already Knows, Akshay Kumar shared insights about his dietary habits, particularly his practice of finishing dinner by 6:30 pm. Addressing the audience, he said, “Early dinner is important. It is very important for your body because when we go to sleep at night, our eyes are resting, our legs are resting, our hands are resting, every part of our body is resting. But what is not resting is your stomach because we have eaten food late.”
Akshay Kumar talks about digestive health and timing
He added, “By the time you get up, it is time for him to relax. But when we get up, we eat our breakfast and again the poor stomach is working… I am explaining it in a very very simple way and you all know that the stomach, all the diseases come from there. I think the diseases will not come near you. This is what I always follow.
So, it is important to eat at 6.30 pm because you get your time to digest your food and by the time when you are about to sleep, by 9, 9.30, 10 o’clock, the stomach is completely ready to rest. It is a very simple thing.”

There are no weights.”
