Angelina Jolie changes her diet plan in accordance with her role requirements in movies. For example, during the filming of Tomb Raider, she focused on high-protein, low-carb foods to build up her muscles. She added protein shakes to her menu to assist her in the process of giving a new shape to her body. Not much information can be obtained on the lean beauty's special diets, but it can be concluded that she focuses on the intake of low-fat, low-carb foods.

It is also known that when Angelina was pregnant with her twins, Brad Pitt was pretty nervous about her calorie intake. Major parts of her diet have been kept a secret.

Although some facts remain unexplored, it can safely be said that you are what you eat -- and this actress' glowing complexion and perfect figure drive the point home!
