Hollywood star Jennifer Aniston, who played the iconic character of Rachel Green’s role on Friends, has just spilled the beans on how she rebelled against her mother and refused to eat anything healthy.
The 52-year-old actress looked back at her teenage years and how she rebelled against her mother and refused to eat anything healthy. The Murder Mystery shared, “My mom was a big health junkie. “When I was a kid, I did not get any of the fun Froot Loops or Captain Crunches or Wonder Bread,” she said in an interview.
“I was the wheat germ and oatmeal, every kind of sprouted anything. My mom was always very health-conscious and she did yoga, and so I grew up in it,” she shared. “My sort of teenage rebellion was eating bad food. All of a sudden, I was having whatever I wanted. I was having Fruity Pebbles! Then I started to notice such a significant change in the way I felt. I was exhausted, I was grumpy, my skin was awful, my body changed and I just didn’t like how I felt,” she continued.

“I was so young and dumb. I was like,’ Oh, so my mom was doing a good thing!’ I just thought she was nuts,” she said. “Universally, we’re all going to grow up and get old. You can’t deny that, that is a guarantee. But we can be vital and we can be thriving in our older years. Our society loves to say, ‘Oh, you’re this age, now you go downhill. And now you go off to pasture and that’s it, buh-bye. You’re no longer valuable or useful to society.’ And that’s just so wrong. I just think that’s just wrong,” she said.
