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."

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.
