Bella Hadid is showing off – in her swimsuit. In a recent social media post, the stunning supermodel flaunts her incredible figure in a tiny bathing suit while poolside. “You look absolutely perfect,” commented one of her followers, while many others added fire emojis. How does the 27-year-old approach health and fitness? Celebwell rounded up her top lifestyle habits.
1. Fuelling Up with Food
Bella doesn’t exercise on an empty stomach. "I count on a smoothie, a juice, or a protein drink 30 minutes before the session. After the session, I eat something full of protein like chicken and wholegrain rice. It's ideal to strengthen the muscle mass and to increase the effects of the session," she told French Vogue.
2. Water and Sleep
Hydration and rest are crucial, says Bella. “I try to drink as much water, and get as much sleep, as I can,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.
3. Clean Eating
“We’re on the go so much that it’s hard to eat clean, but I always feel better when I do,” Bella told Harper’s Bazaar. “I've always had a difficult relationship with food. In high school, my relationship with food came from not having control, but food was the one thing I could control. So I would micromanage and make schedules for food, but it's more important to check what's good for your body and your own biology,” she added in another interview with Harper’s Bazaar.
4. Snowboarding
Bella is an avid snowboarder. She recently shared some photos of herself drinking her energy drink, Kin Euphorics, while on the mountain. According to the University of Rochester, snowboarding, like skiing, is a great cardiovascular workout. “Because they are also weight-bearing exercises, they strengthen your bones as they tone your muscles,” they say. “Cardiovascular or aerobic exercises also work to reduce your risk for chronic diseases, and lower blood pressure. They also help you maintain a healthy body weight. Through regular aerobic exercise like skiing and snowboarding, you lower your risk of developing conditions like diabetes and heart disease, having a stroke, and perhaps even getting cancer.”
5. Sunshine
“I always say that first thing in the morning, you have to start your day by staring at the sun. When I was going through a difficult time, I would pull myself out of bed, open the blinds, and then just stare at the sun. But it's so true! And now, I have a sun light and I drink Actual Sunshine, our new Kin flavor, which honestly makes me feel like I'm walking on air,” Bella told Harper’s Bazaar.
6. Sobriety
"I don't feel the need [to drink alcohol] because I know how it will affect me at 3 in the morning when I wake up with horrible anxiety thinking about that one thing I said five years ago when I graduated high school," said Hadid in an interview with InStyle in January 2022. "There's just this never-ending effect of, essentially, you know, pain and stress over those few drinks that didn't really do much, you know?" In July 2023, she revealed that with “self love” she was ten months sober. “I’m so proud of anyone pushing through dry July,” she wrote, promoting her non-alcoholic beverage drink Kin Euphorics. With Kin and lots of self love, I am almost 10 months no alcohol!” she wrote on Instagram. “I’m so proud of anyone discovering their sobriety,” she added. “Or anyone who has had the courage to open their mind to Dry July!”
7. Pizza “At Least Once a Day”
Bella has a few guilty pleasures. “My favorite go-to snack, I eat pizza, at least once a day. It's always like a go-to cuz it always, you know, it tastes good every time,” Bella told ID. “There's no bad pizza. Also seaweed snacks randomly. Oh, sour Patch Kids and Rose Champagne if i’m feeling frisky.”
