Princess Kate always looks picture perfect when she steps out on royal visits, with her hair perfectly styled, subtle make-up and excellent fashion sense.
Royal fans are always eager to find out what dress or trouser suit she is wearing and often fawn over her impressive slender silhouette.
While she is known for her active lifestyle, often stepping out for runs on the Windsor Estate and playing paddle tennis with husband Prince William, she also follows a very healthy diet.
As a senior royal, Kate has all sorts of foods available to her but experts have revealed what dishes she favours to keep her trim figure. With the help of nutrition experts at BarBend, Express.co.uk takes a closer look below:

Breakfast
BarBend's experts revealed that the 41-year-old is a big fan of slow-burn energy oats, which keep her filled up and with enough fuel to attend royal events, exercise and run after her three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
They said: "To maintain her enviable figure, Kate matches nutritious, healthy eating with a consistent workout regime of planking and running, and oats can be great exercise fuel, as they release energy throughout the whole workout."
She also is known to blend her own antioxidant-filled smoothies. These often contain a mix of kale, spirulina, matcha, spinach, romaine, and blueberries, creating a delicious mix that promotes her enviable natural glow and healthy skin.

- Half cucumber

- Two tbsp apple cider vinegar

Lunch
According to the leading nutritionists, Kate favours organic foods for lunch and incorporates as many raw ingredients as possible.
They said: "Watermelon salads are a staple of Kate’s lunches, and include juicy pink watermelon mixed with avocado, onion, cucumber, and feta cheese. It's the perfect mix of sweet and savoury."
During Kate and William's royal tour of India, Chef Raghu Deora revealed that he served both Kate and Prince William lots of vegetarian food.
The couple is said to "prefer" a meat-free diet, no doubt filled with plenty of greens, grains, and whole foods.

Snacks can be the downfall of many people's weight loss goals as not being able to control hunger cravings can be detrimental.
But Kate apparently has some excellent tricks up her sleeve when it comes to satisfying her own cravings in between meals.
She is said to opt for:
- Raw fruit and vegetables, including goji berries
- Low-calorie popcorn
- Olives
Loved as a staple in the Mediterranean diet, the Princess revealed her love for them while visiting Great Ormond Street a few years ago.
Kate told a child at the hospital that she used to eat a lot of olives when she was little.
The experts noted: "So we can safely say that this cholesterol-lowering snack is likely still a favourite of Kate's."

With her daily food list made up of lighter, plant-based foods, the mother-of-three is said to indulge in traditional English favourites for dinner.
These include Prince William’s favourite roast chicken, and she enjoys making pizza, pasta and baking cakes with their children.
The diet experts explained: "Sushi is also a big favourite among Kate and Prince William, and she has made some bold and experimental choices when it comes to fish, tucking into thinly sliced wild geoduck (a large saltwater clam) sashimi."
They added: "While the royals, as a rule, do not consume seafood abroad in case of food poisoning which could set a royal tour back by days, clearly the geoduck was too delicious to resist!"

Dessert
A national favourite, Kate isn't impartial to indulging in a sticky toffee pudding every now and then. According to the previous chef for the Royal Family, Darren McGrady, it was her favourite.
The former staff member served the same classic recipe for years at Buckingham Palace and even used to add a secret ingredient - chocolate chunks.
