The Boys' Erin Moriarty Rocks a Swimsuit, Saying "Staycation, all I ever wanted"
Erin Moriarty is getting a much-needed vacation – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post The Boys star shows off her amazing body while making a splash at the pool. "Staycation, all I ever wanted," she captioned the Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
She Loves Ice Cream
Erin told Karen Fukuhara during a Happy Hour Q&A that she has a "massive sweet tooth." Her favorite treat? "I like local artisanal ice cream, like really good ice cream. And I don't like gelato. I like ice cream that's chunky, like the cookie dough or almond brittle or like anything that's got chunks in it," she said. I'm down. "I always get sprinkles if they have it. And I get it on a cone like a child. And I love it. And that's my favorite. I eat dessert every single night."
She Drinks Wine
Another one of her go-tos? Wine. "Red wine, in moderation, has long been thought of as heart healthy," says the Mayo Clinic. "The alcohol and certain substances in red wine called antioxidants may help prevent coronary artery disease, the condition that leads to heart attacks." While red wine is slightly healthier than white, the lighter shade of vino generally has fewer calories than the darker shade.
She Loves Bagels
During part 2 of the interview Erin reveals she loves bagels. "There's this brunch spot that I love and it's in Toronto and it's my favorite brunch ever. They make it homemade, so it's like a buttered bagel classic. And they make it homemade and scrambled eggs, bacon, avocado, just simple," she says. "It's basically a deconstructed breakfast bagel sandwich. And I'm from New York City. Yeah. So I've got a soft place for bagels."
She Walks
Erin takes walks regularly. Luckily she has canines who keep her company. Why should you walk? One JAMA Internal Medicine study found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.
She Drinks Coffee
Because Erin is from New York City she "obviously likes a really strong coffee," she confessed in the interview. According to the Cleveland Clinic, there are several benefits of drinking coffee in moderation. "It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function," they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.
