1. She Never Skips Breakfast

Sharif starts the day with “A glass of water. I follow it with a glass of vegetable juice,” she says. “Breakfast is either fruits or cornflakes or an egg-white omelet. I cannot function without a proper breakfast.” "So what are some healthy breakfast choices? Here are some easy options to fuel you for your busy day:

• plain yogurt, fruit, and nuts
• oatmeal, fruit, nuts
• whole wheat or rye toast with nut butter
• black beans and tortilla (corn or whole wheat)," says Harvard Health.

2. She Loves Yoga

Sharif genuinely enjoys working out and staying active. “I am a fitness freak and regularly practice yoga,” she says. “It gives me a peaceful feeling and it is good for the body too. I believe in eating healthy. I don't diet. I love trying new cuisines. At the same time I am a fitness freak. I have to hit the gym and do a lot of cardio.”

3. Body Oil

Sharif uses body oil to keep her skin healthy and hydrated. “During winter, our skin becomes dry and itchy due to excessive loss of moisture,” says dermatologist Dr. Nivedita Dadu. “Oils have been used since ancient times in skincare and are not just a great pick for massages but also for moisturizing, tightening the skin and reducing stretch marks.”

4. Turmeric Face Mask

Sharif swears by home made turmeric face masks for beautiful, glowing skin. “It has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant properties that show promising benefits in treating acne, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and even pigmentation when either ingested and/or applied topically,” says senior chemist Sabina Wizemann.

5. Early Dinner

Sharif prefers to have dinner well before it’s time for bed. “I try and eat as early as possible as I believe that it's important that the food gets digested well before sleeping,” she says. “The benefit of an early dinner has to do with the fact that as the day winds down, the body needs less food for energy and should be entering a fasting state,” says Rachel Swanson, MS, LDN. “Capping your intake more than two hours before bed allows for an extended overnight fasting window to take place—the essential downtime your body needs to facilitate detoxification and cellular repair.”

1. She Loves Kickboxing

Sikander loves to mix up her workouts, incorporating both high and low intensity exercises. “I do kickboxing, an hour and a half of weight training and an hour of spinning every alternate day,” she says. “And I still have energy left in me, I walk for about half an hour! That constitutes my fitness regime.” Kickboxing is a great full-body workout, experts say. “There’s a physical element of fighting back against things that weigh you down in life,” says Brooke Budke, vice president of marketing for Title Boxing Club. “When the company also questions their clients about why they stick with kickboxing, one-third of members say it’s the stress relief. The biggest thing we hear is that people feel empowered—they consider kickboxing their therapy. They’re fighting for their mental strength, happiness, anxiety and just a release. So, people feel good during the workout, but they also feel amazing after, and throughout the day and week. You’re basically on a boxing high.”

2. She Knows When To Relax

Sikander enjoys regular massages and spa visits. “I just love going to spas and indulging myself in massages at least once a week,” she says. “Sleeping for me is another great way to relax. Listening to soft music helps me unwind after a hard day’s work. Traveling is another passion that always rejuvenates me!”

3. She Puts Cardamom In her Tea

Sikander starts the day with tea, and loves to add cardamom to her brew. Cardamom offers a wealth of health benefits, experts say. “Cardamom is a good source of vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, potassium and zinc, and it is also a very good source of dietary fiber, iron and manganese,” says Laura Jeffers, MEd, RD, LD.

4. She Loves a Healthy Breakfast

Sikander enjoys a bowl of oats (no milk), and an egg while omelet with olives and avocados for breakfast. “Olives are rich in plant compounds called polyphenols which have effective antioxidant properties,” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “The beneficial effects of these compounds include reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as atherosclerosis and cancer. Olives are one of the most popular fermented foods, by consuming such foods you are adding beneficial bacteria and enzymes to your intestinal flora, which increases the health of your gut microbiome and digestive system and may enhance your immune function.”

5. She Has Cheat Meals

Sikander enjoys a healthy diet, but definitely has some indulgences now and then. “I love ice cream, I also love pizza, but I like to stay away from gluten nowadays so I prefer a gluten-free pizza,” she says. “And if my mom has cooked some yummy food (because she's an amazing cook) I'll have that. I love Italian, Moroccan food, Turkish food, Greek food, home food.... all these are my most favorite cuisines!”
