WHEN HE’S NOT CRISCROSSING THE GLOBE to headline stadiums from Sao Paolo to Seoul, dBerrie (AKA David Berrie) makes a priority of his health, especially when it comes to clean eating. “I used to order in all the time but now I cook almost every night,” said the 27-year-old EDM DJ/music producer-turned-home chef from his downtown Manhattan studio. Flanked by an air humidifier and oxygen purifier to “clear his head,” bonberi caught up with the New Jersey native who was hard at work putting the final touches on his remix of Katy Perry’s number one hit “Roar” (to be released in the coming weeks). Here, the Paleo-leaning DJ revealed how he keeps fit as a night owl and what he stocks in his fridge (Spoiler: It’s not Red Bull.) 

On most days, I go to the gym at 2 am. Synergy Fitness on 14th street is open 24 hours and I’ll workout there for an hour and fifteen minutes.

The best workout include core body exercises. I always finish with 15 to 30 minutes of cardio, usually 6 or 7 mph on the treadmill.

Every kitchen must have red pepper flakes, Frank’s Red Hot Sauce, King Arthur Whole Wheat Flour and almond flour for breading fish filets.

I can’t travel without Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula multistick, Airborne and Emergen-C.

When I don’t have time to workout I jump rope.

The best markets are Eataly for fresh produce, sea salt and olilve oil and Dickson’s Farmstand Meats in Chelsea Market for grass-fed meat. 

The most used utensil in my kitchen is my Minden Master “indoor grill.” It just goes on the stovetop and I grill shrimp, veggies and steaks.

The artist most played on my iPhone is Marco Carola.

My favorite recipe to make is a healthy version of buffalo chicken tenders. I take lean white meat chicken strips, dredge them in almond flour and Frank’s Buffalo Sauce then pan sear them with good olive oil. I also roast shitake mushrooms with sesame oil, mirin and a little soy sauce.

My favorite restaurants in New York are Los Tacos no. 1  in Chelsea market, Dirty Bird for rotisserie chicken and Eva’s for their turkey burger.

I live in my Nike Free Run 3.0 and red Converse.
