When it comes to eating, Ratajkowski says to The New York Times that she makes sure to feel good about what she puts in her body. "For me, it's about feeling good about what you eat.” “Snack healthy,” advises the Mayo Clinic. “If you feel the urge to eat between meals, choose a healthy snack, such as fresh fruit, vegetables with low-fat dip, nuts or unbuttered popcorn. Or try lower calorie versions of your favorite foods to see if they satisfy your craving."

3. She Loves Juices

Ratajkowski is one of many celebrities who love to enjoy juices to stay healthy. "I do love turmeric and beet juices,” she says to The New York Times. “It's so L.A., you can't avoid it." "Turmeric is most known for the benefit of reducing inflammation in the body," says Jillian Smith, RD, CNC, to our sister site Eat This, Not That!. "Turmeric should be paired with black pepper to activate this anti-inflammatory mechanism."

Ratajkowski tells Elle that she likes to cook a lot of her meals, and that this helps her eat healthy. "I cook a lot, so that really helps. You know how much salt and sugar and all of that kind of stuff you are putting in your body."

5. She Eats Iron-Rich Food

Ratajkowski says to Elle that she makes sure to get a lot of iron in her diet, and that this is easy for her to do. “I'm a carnivore. I really like to eat meat. I crave iron.” "Iron is crucial because it is a key component of red blood cells, and you will have decreased oxygen-carrying capacity throughout the body if you're low in iron," says Julieanna Hever, MS, RD, CPT, a plant-based dietitian and author of The Vegiterranean Diet and The Complete Idiot's Guide to Plant-Based Nutrition, to our sister site, Eat This, Not That!. "This can lead to lethargy, increased risk for infections, and problems with your cardiovascular system." Not getting enough iron is especially risky during pregnancy, Hever notes.

Ratajkowski has incredible skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She revealed to Vogue that she has learned to keep her skincare routine pretty simple, after trying a bunch of things at home."In quarantine, I went crazy and ordered a bunch of skincare products. One of the things I've learned about beauty: I just need the basics and for them to be really good. That was one of the ways that my skin freaked out because I was overusing products."

2. She Loves Face Masks

Ratajkowksi tells New Beauty that she loves to use face masks. She says that she loves the LOOPS brand in particular. “What I love about LOOPS is that it’s a mask that I can throw on for 15 minutes while I’m answering calls from bed. Or even like this morning—I had kind of a hectic morning and I was making my bed and running around having my coffee and taking calls, and I kept the face mask on while I was doing all of that, then I took it off and did my makeup.”

3. She Washes Her Face Gently, And Only Once A Day

Ratajkowski tells New Beauty that she makes sure to wash her face. She says that she only does so once a day, and makes sure to be gentle on her skin. “I used to think washing your face was really, really important—and I do still—but I think you should only wash it once a day at night, and really lightly. Because otherwise, at least for my skin, it strips my skin of the natural oils and makes my skin breakout because it dries. So I do wash my face at night, but I think simplifying it is better [for your skin]. Oh, and use cold water—not hot! That’s my new trick.”

4. She Loves Fitness Classes

Ratajkowski tells InStyle that she loves to go to fitness classes in order to help her stay in shape. “I'm one of those people who, if I go to the gym by myself, there's a 50/50 chance of me actually working out and really pushing myself, so the class environment works really, really well for me.” One of Ratajkowski’s favorite classes is STRONG classes from Zumba.

5. She Works Out To Help Herself Sleep

Ratajkowski loves to work out at night, and she told InStyle that it helps her sleep better. "For me, the way I sleep afterwards is one of the main reasons to work out,” she says. “I am always on my phone working and I think that's affected my sleep. I'm also really light-sensitive. When I work out, it's better than taking a melatonin. Because my body has worked hard, my brain finally rests and I think that is so valuable in this day and age — not to sound like an old geezer, but truly I feel that way."

Model, fashion designer, activist, and author Emily Ratajkowski wrote the book about her body—titled, appropriately, My Body—and she isn’t afraid to own it.

“I don’t have a trainer, and I don’t really go to the gym. I go on long walks and hikes with my girlfriends. That’s about it. I’m just not a crazy fitness person. I’m definitely an outlier in the industry,” Emily told The New York Times. “And doing yoga a couple of times a week is a really big part of my regimen.”

"I think the biggest obstacle of my career has been transitioning and doing things that people didn't really expect," Emily told Harper’s Bazaar. "But I think you just have to forge ahead and do what you're going to do and be who you are."

3. She Prioritizes Self-Care

Emily puts priority on self-care. One way she relaxes? Exercising at night. "For me, the way I sleep afterwards is one of the main reasons to work out. I am always on my phone working and I think that's affected my sleep. I'm also really light-sensitive. When I work out, it's better than taking a melatonin. Because my body has worked hard, my brain finally rests and I think that is so valuable in this day and age — not to sound like an old geezer, but truly I feel that way," she told InStyle. She is also big into baths, regularly sharing photos of her soaks on Instagram.

4. She Walks Her Dog

Emily is the proud owner of a Husky mix, who she regularly walks in New York City. "I still can’t believe that he went from 13 lbs at 8 weeks old to approx 80 lbs in one quick year," Emily wrote, commemorating her pooch on his birthday in 2020. "He’s still the snuggliest though! He makes us the happiest and I’m going to take this opportunity to post a sh*t ton of pics of him ‘cause you know what? We all could use some puppy pics right about now. Hbd Colombo ILYSM."

5. She Takes Workout Classes

“I'm one of those people who, if I go to the gym by myself, there's a 50/50 chance of me actually working out and really pushing myself, so the class environment works really, really well for me,” Emily told InStyle. “I am also someone who, even in a class, will get chatty and [distracted]. I think that’s the great thing about STRONG — the music keeps me really focused and in the zone,” she continues. “You just feel like you're, you know, Superwoman really pushing herself. You end up working harder and it's a better, more intense workout, without even noticing.”
