Didn't know the importance of nutrition when I started playing: Sachin

Cricket icon #Sachin_Tendulkar says that he had no knowledge that how important is nutrition when he started playing and only realised when he lost a game because of lack of nutritional intake.

"In my younger days when I first started playing cricket, I did not know the importance of nutrition. Cricket being my first love, I was always rushing to play the game. I wasn't aware what a complete and nutritious diet meant, because of my lack of knowledge on the subject back then," Sachin told.

"It was the biggest lesson of my life when one fine day, I was playing a match and around lunch time, I lost the game due to lack of nutritional intake... I made up my mind to never let this happen again," added the master blaster, who is is seen urging the millenials to start the day right in a new TV commercial for the brand Quaker Oats+Milk.

Would very much like to be 'Swasth Bharat' ambassador: Sachin Tendulkar

Master blaster #Sachin_Tendulkar, who met Prime Minister #Narendra_Modi here on Friday, says that apart from the idea of 'Swachh Bharat', the message of 'Swasth Bharat' needs to be widely promoted in the country. He feels it will be the country's "real strength".

"I would want everyone to play some or the other sport. It is extremely important for us to have Swachh Bharat, of which I am one of the ambassadors, but along with that... With the young population that we have, we also need to talk about Swasth Bharat. That is equally important," Sachin told here after his meeting with Modi.

Would he take on a role as 'Swasth Bharat' ambassador?

"Very much... 110 per cent. I feel healthy India is going to be our real strength, because with (a majority of) young population, we need to be healthy. Young and unhealthy population can be dangerous. We need to address that for sure, without any doubt," said the 44-year-old, looking fit as a fiddle.
