1. She Takes Collagen Supplements

González takes collagen supplements as part of her health and wellness routine. “Collagen peptides are a supplement that can help your body replace its lost collagen,” says Beth Czerwony, RD. “They help firm the skin and plump it up to keep you looking a little bit younger. Collagen peptides can help protect your ligaments and tendons. So they’re worth a try for anybody who has arthritic pain or who works out a lot.”

2. She Loves To Take Baths

González loves to take baths, often with candles and a good book. “Taking baths has great physical and mental health benefits,” says family medicine provider Amy Zack, MD. “One benefit is cleanliness. Bathing cleans your skin, helping you avoid irritation, inflammation and sores caused by dead skin cell accumulation. The bacterial and fungal load from contact in your environment can also accumulate, increasing the risk of infection.”

3. She Likes Eggs

González enjoys eggs, especially with fries. “Eggs are one of the best dietary sources of choline,” says registered nutritionist Jo Lewin. ‘This little talked about nutrient is needed by everyone of us for the formation of cell membranes and for brain function, including memory. It’s especially important during pregnancy and breastfeeding, when an adequate supply of choline is essential for normal brain development.”

4. She Enjoys Paddle Boarding

González is a big fan of the ocean, and loves to paddle board. “Our modern day lives have become largely disconnected from nature, with concrete and vehicles physically separating us from the outdoors, and what we value being far removed from what our brains developed to value,” says paddle boarder and Dryrobe brand ambassador, Cal Major. “Stand-up paddle boarding can help counteract that. Gliding along the water, making little noise and traveling slowly allows for a peaceful immersion into the natural world around us.”

5. She Loves To Dance

González loves to dance and is clearly very good at it. Dance-based workouts are fun and don’t require expensive equipment. “Any type of exercise is beneficial for you,” says exercise physiologist Christopher Travers, MS. “If a new fitness trend fits into your time frame and you like it, we’re going to encourage it. But always start slow and listen to your body. If your body says to slow down, then slow down.”

1. She Has No Time For Haters

Castillo has no time for critics. She also isn’t afraid to call them out. In August, Castillo called out the haters in this Instagram post. She wrote, “Dedicated to all the badasses who read me and to myself! I am going through one of the most powerful and transformative processes of my life and every day I admire more the fact of being a woman and all my colleagues.”

2. She Hikes

Castillo likes to do a lot of outdoor activities as a way to stay in shape. She shares a lot of different activities on her Instagram. One thing she likes to do is go hiking. Castillo posted this photo of herself and her husband hiking in the mountains in Peru. She captioned the post, “Height kisses.” According to Ace Fitness, “Hiking is cardiovascular in nature, so it can provide great benefit to heart health while also improving blood pressure and blood sugar levels.”

3. She Swims

Another outdoor activity Castillo enjoys doing is swimming. She posted this photo and video on Instagram of herself in an infinity pool. She captioned the post, “Between the sky and the sea. Infinite.” Better Health reports that there are many benefits to swimming. They state, “Swimming is a great workout because you need to move your whole body against the resistance of the water.”

4. She’s Open To Life

Castillo opened up about what she has learned throughout her career in an interview with Observatory. She says that she is a lot more open to life. “I not only had an actress' vision but also a kind of director's vision; that is, at the same time that I was in a scene, I tried to be outside it, seeing how things happened. Over the years, one learns something that applies in life: ride the wave as it comes.”

5. She Learns From Her Roles

Castillo tells Observatory that she has learned a lot from her different roles. “I spent the first ten years of my career being very shy, believing very little in myself. I used it as a pretext to project myself as an actress, and I would have to ‘sell myself’ to an industry in which I did not believe much (although the truth is that I did not know it). Then a unique project came into my life, the character of Monica Robles, in the series El señor de los cielos.. Monica forced me to feel sexy, beautiful, powerful, owner of her circumstances. I had to create all that for myself for the first time, and I did it through acting. Then I learned that if I could create that in a scene, it was because it was inside me that I had that strength, that claw; above all, I had the power to see myself differently and bring it to life. That happens with the different characters: you see inside yourself, learn about the human condition, and visit many facets of yourself.”
