Ratajkowski admits to The New York Times that she's "not a big fitness person." However, she says that she does try to stay active on her own terms, and as often as she can.

She Eats Protein & Iron

While Ratajkowski likes to eat salads, she says that she makes sure to eat a lot of protein and iron. She told Elle "I really like to eat meat. I crave iron so I am definitely not the kind of person who you will often find eating a plain salad. I like to keep it really balanced to give my body energy and also be healthy."
