Namita Nayyar:
Introduce us to a day in your life.
BISHAMBER DAS:
People tend to think models can not lead professional lives outside of their modelling career. I come from a law background and I am very proud to share that I am also known to be the first youngest Asian female magistrate in the UK. Along side of this I work in the field of child protection where I support vulnerable children and young people. Each and every role I fulfil in my life from being a model to working in social care gives me great satisfaction.
Namita Nayyar:
What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine to stay fit and healthy?
BISHAMBER DAS:
I am not a big fan of going to the gym, I find it quiet boring! But I find other ways to make up for exercising, dance is a big part of my heritage and culture, you will always find me at that bhangra and belly dancing class. Eating healthy is so important I try my best to keep a varied diet. I have been bought up as a strict vegetarian from birth and this certainly helps in making the right food choices.
Namita Nayyar:
Tell us your Top 3 Favorite Healthy Foods or Recipes.
BISHAMBER DAS:
- Saag – the national dish of Punjab (my state in India). This super yummy dish is so healthy and can be made from any greens such as spinach and broccoli.
- Daal – This lentil curry always helps me to stock up on healthy carbs and proteins.
- Quorn – Being a vegetarian means at times I can be restricted on my protein intake. I love how I can cook up so many dishes from Mexican to Indian using Quorn as a substitute.
