The New York Post asked the 52-year-old how he keeps going behind the drum kit, and Ulrich said, “Well, I go running pretty much every day for 30 to 45 minutes. That’s an expected one. But a significant part of my diet are these oat pancakes that I eat. They’re made of egg whites, oats, fat-free yogurt and a little Stevia. That’s my carbs. It’s a recipe that comes from the French nutritionist Pierre Dukan. I eat about 20 of them a day — I’m never more than six feet away from a pancake at any time! It’s the fuel to the drumming in Metallica.”
