Angelina Jolie - © Lee Roth / RothStock / PR PhotosAngelina, who is believed to be expecting twins with Brad, has reportedly sparked health concerns after embarking on a low-fat organic diet and refusing to eat in well-lit rooms.A source said: "Brad is worried that she forgets to eat as much as she should. "She never eats standing up or in bright light. It has to be on a cushion or low stool. Angelina feels that relaxing properly before she eats is incredibly important for how the baby absorbs the food. She believes that indulging in fatty foods while pregnant can programme babies to crave junk food."Angelina, 32, is believed to be mainly eating fresh fruit and vegetables, wholegrain cereals, dried fruits and nuts.Brad has been trying to persuade her to have bigger meals, including potatoes, brown rice and tuna.The source added: "Brad has done a lot of research into the best foods for her and also makes sure she has almonds, tofu and yoghurt. He also makes her dry toast to ease her morning sickness."(C) BANG Media International

All she's doing is reducing the stress factors that contribute to food not being digested properly (which might increase allergies). Quite smart really. Definitely not crack-pot. As to whether she eats enough, who knows. It interesting, though, that this rumour has surfaced after she's allegedly been diagnosed with gestational diabetes: it strikes me that rather than not eating enough she wants to make extra sure that she's eating the right things.
