Hadid says to Vogue Paris that she gets a bit of protein in her system before and after working out. "I count on a smoothie, a juice or a protein drink 30 minutes before the session," she says.

1. This is Her Daily Workout

She says this is her daily workout. "When time is on my side, I train with my coach for intensive sessions. I run non-stop for 20 minutes followed by a boxing session and finally a series of weights targeting the abs and glutes. We keep the routines varied, so the sessions are always fun,” she told Vogue France.

2. Her Nutritionist Has This Take on Why Food Matters

“For me, wellness is allowing your body to function properly and efficiently. Physically, mentally, emotionally, and physiologically by creating the environment your cells need to be able to easily do their job. Providing them with the energy, environment, and resources that they need to be healthy,” chiropractor and nutritionist Charles Passler, who has reportedly advised Hadid, tells Coveteur. “It’s really about the cells! Think about it: We’re an accumulation of cells. We are taking care [of] our cells and allowing them to function properly by providing them, like I said, with the resources, the environment, the energy they need to get the job done.”

3. Her Nutritionist Says This is How to Eat

“It’s adequate protein, adequate fat, and lots and lots and lots of non-starchy vegetables,” Passler told People. “That is typically the most bulletproof, easiest, soundproof way to make sure that somebody stays on track.” He went on: “If you eat a lot of carbohydrates, with your protein and your fat, the body’s going to use the carbohydrates for fuel first,” he says. “The body loves using carbs for fuel. So the body’s going to soak up all of those carbs, and if then you don’t need any more fuel, the body’s going to just turn the extra calories from the fat and the protein into body fat. So by eliminating the carbohydrates, and consuming the protein and the fat, it not only keeps your calories down, but it keeps your energy stable.”

4. Bella Co-Founded Her Own Drink Brand

Hadid co-founded, with Jen Batchelor, Kin Euphorics, a supplement drink that has different flavors with different effects on your brain (some give energy, some help you sleep). “we are the first braincare beverage & the first drink to sit boldly at the intersection of feeling good & living well. science + magic,” she has said. “No matter who you are, or what you do, Kin is for you. Kin is for the busy, multi-tasker. Kin is for the chiller. The artist. The writer. The wall street business hu-man, the college student, the mother, the stay at home father, the creatives, the hard worker of any form. People universally will benefit from Kin. Once you try it, you just know. Whether you are sober, trying to cut down, or just want something to mix with, Kin will be the first to bring brain care to the bar.”

5. She Has Had Anxiety and Dealt With It

“As many of you know, I have suffered from extreme depression and anxiety for most of my teenage and adult life,” Hadid wrote once. “Since I was 14, I had tried everything to help myself feel better. After years of social drinking at work event after work event, along with suffering from different immune problems as well, my body started to tell me ‘NO’. I wasn’t able to go out anymore with the work schedule I had. My social anxiety was something that slowly crept up on me as I grew into my twenties. It got harder for me to go out without having one drink to calm my nerves, which made me not want to go out at all, so I was just hibernating between jobs. With a life that is constantly pushing a social regime, along with working 13 hour days, every single day, I knew this wasn’t a sustainable life for me. So I searched and scoured for anything holistic that would help with my chronic exhaustion, depression and anxiety. Asking myself and the universe that maybe since I had been so lucky in other aspects of my life, that this low vibration was just where I would have to stay. Until the universe brought me to Jen and KIN!”
