The Beauty A-List Share Their Feel-Good Eating Habits

“I was doing intermittent fasting for a while, but I realized that because my schedule is so crazy and I don’t have regularity in life, I can’t stay on that,” says Dubroff. “I’m a yo-yo for food. I’ll be so healthy, where I’m eating only plant-based [foods] and no sugar for a while, and then I’ll go off it and I’m slamming ice cream and eating pizza. It’s just reality. I try to eat food that’s not highly processed, and I’m flexitarian, because I’m mainly vegetarian, but sometimes I need some meat when I feel depleted. I do generally try to keep the sugar and the dairy in check, though, because it ensures I get better sleep.”

“I don’t follow any particular diet, but I don’t eat very much meat these days, and I always like to start my day with a green juice,” says Moss. “I do [nutritionist] Rose Ferguson’s 5 Day Plan when she does them, too – you don’t fast, but you do have liquid-only days, and I always feel lighter in my body and clearer in my mind after doing it.”

“I’ve noticed that the more I go towards fresh fruit and vegetables, the better I feel,” says Kerr, founder of Kora Organics. “I eat lots of potatoes for lunch and dinner (I love potatoes), but use an air fryer so it’s a little healthier. And I can’t live without celery juice; I’ve been drinking it for three years and it’s been life-changing for me – my husband and children all drink it, too. Anthony William’s book Cleanse to Heal is great, and since drinking celery juice, as he advises, it’s calmed down my digestive issues. My parents owned a steak house, so that’s a comfort food for me, and I do indulge every now and again. However, I feel much better when eating plant-based food. I lost my baby weight from eating lots of potatoes and bananas and drinking celery juice.”

“I’ve been vegetarian since I was 16 – I just didn’t want to eat meat any more,” says Sturm. “Now, I’m super-healthy in what I eat and follow an anti-inflammatory diet. Recently, I went to the Vivamayr medical health resort for 10 days and tried Kinesiology testing, as I’ve always had digestive issues and stomach pain. They found out I had problems with gluten, histamine (found in fermented foods, and in avocados, eggplant and spinach) and dairy. Before, I was eating lots of tomatoes and avocado and spinach – but now I’ve cut them out, my stomach pains have totally gone. I’m not crazy about being gluten-free and I do still eat normal bread – I just don’t overdo it. As with everything in life, it’s about moderation and not being extreme.”

“I’m a bit of a weird eater, as I like to have salad for breakfast and always eat my dinner early, at 5pm or 5.30pm,” says Darden. “I’m not an exciting eater, but I love food and I eat quite a bit, except for sugar and pasta.”

“I love Ayurvedic recipes and Ayurvedic cooking, and when I live by those sorts of recipes, I feel amazing. I cook a lot with ghee and beautiful Ayurvedic spices, and I definitely feel better with cooked, warm foods, so I try to avoid raw foods, especially around wintertime – they don’t work for my body or my immune system. I try to listen to my body; it will tell you what you need because you’ll crave it. I eat meat, and sometimes I just really need a good steak, but it’s about finding that balance. I can’t skip a meal as my blood sugar drops, so I often eat quite rich, dense meals, a few times a day.”
