I'm A Celebrity's Boy George maintains massive 40kg weight loss by snacking on one thing

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!'s Boy George has been hitting the headlines recently due to his sparky nature towards a number of his fellow campmates - Matt Hancock and Scarlette Douglas, to name a few. But while the pop icon's dramatic outbursts are remaining the talk of the TV town, fans have marvelled at the Karma Chameleon hitmaker's slimmer look.

The Culture Club star - who viewers regularly see starting his mornings in the jungle with a spot of meditation, chanting and yoga - weighed in around 120 kgs at his heaviest but has managed to shed a whopping 40kgs in the last few years - and has maintained it by snacking on one particular food item.

It seems that almonds have had a big part to play in his health journey. While filming for The Voice, he snacked on them regularly to maintain his frame, reports the Daily Mail. According to Healthline, these nuts are not only "a good source of healthy fat, protein, fibre and several vitamins and minerals, but they may also reduce heart disease risk factors like elevated LDL (bad) cholesterol and excess belly fat."
