Fermented Food
Klum is a super for anything pickled or fermented. One of her favorite dishes? Her family’s sauerkraut soup recipe. A shot of apple cider vinegar in the morning is also part of her daily routine. There is some scientific research supporting the health benefits of fermented foods, including antioxidant, anti-micr
Digestion Hacks

Klum claims to have an effective digestion hack. “Maybe this doesn't work for everyone, but I learned in this clinic that I went to for two weeks with my husband because he had these horrible headaches, is that you're not meant to drink anything while you eat,” she said during an interview. “Not a half an hour before, not during, not a half an hour afterwards. So you're supposed to drink throughout the day, but not when you are eating because it dilutes our stomach acid. And then the stomach acid is too weak to break down the food. So that's important.” Also, she avoids raw veggies at night. “So no raw vegetables, you know, like carrots or anything like that,” she explained in the same interview. “It is terrible to do that. Same with fruit or salad. So in the past I've always been chowing down on salad, but what happens is when you lay down at night, you go into rest mode and your poor stomach and your intestines need to rest. So if you're doing all these things like that, it can't rest. So it's super busy getting through all that uncooked food.”
Balanced Diet
“The myth that models don’t eat is totally not true,” Heidi told Shape. “I just think that because we’re in this business, we have to choose more wisely.” Her diet consists of a mixture of fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. “It's important to keep a balanced diet, but I'm not a fan of deprivation. If I want a cheeseburger, I am not only going to eat that cheeseburger, but I'm going to enjoy that cheeseburger.”
Exercising For Heart Health
Klum’s number one motivation for exercise? Her heart. “It’s not just about doing the cardio so that you’re nice and fit, and slim and trim, but your heart needs to pump, too,” she told Shape. “Whenever I need motivation, I think of the big picture. I want to be as healthy as possible for myself and my family.”
She Only Works Out Twice A Week

“I don't really exercise that much,” Klum confessed to Buro27. I mean, two times a week for sure. I will do the Stairmaster I've got at home or a running machine. I also think it's important not to exercise too much. I don't think you have to do a lot, but if you do a little bit all the time, I think that's important. Sometimes I'll do some little weights while I'm running.”
