1. She’s a Lifelong Vegetarian
Anderson has been a vegetarian since she was a child. “People who follow a vegetarian diet and especially a vegan diet may be at risk of getting insufficient vitamin D and vitamin K, both needed for bone health,” says Harvard Health. “Although green leafy vegetables contain some vitamin K, vegans may also need to rely on fortified foods, including some types of soy milk, rice milk, organic orange juice, and breakfast cereals. They may also want to consider taking a vitamin D supplemen
2. She Rides Her Bike
Anderson enjoys riding her bike, which is a great form of cardio. “One of the major benefits of cycling is that it’s low-impact,” says Jaclyn Kubiak, PT, DPT. “Your hamstrings are being activated at about 17%, your quadriceps at 17% and the glutes are at 15 to 17%.”
3. She Loves To Swim
Anderson loves swimming, especially underwater. “Swimming is the fourth most popular sports activity in the United States and a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity,” says the CDC. “Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. This can also lead to improved health for people with diabetes and heart disease. Swimmers have about half the risk of death compared with inactive people. People report enjoying water-based exercise more than exercising on land. They can also exercise longer in water than on land without increased effort or joint or muscle pain.”
4. She Enjoys Beer
Anderson enjoys the occasional beer—especially at Oktoberfest in Munich. “The main ingredient is usually pure, spring water from a reliable source,” says Jim Collins, MD. “It contains no cholesterol or fat, but has low to moderate levels of carbohydrates. Beer does contain an average of 25mg of salt, which isn’t all that bad. And, the good news is that most beers contain protein, calcium, potassium, phosphorus, and vitamins B, B2, and B6.”
5. She Skis
Anderson loves hitting the slopes with her family. “Skiing gets you outdoors in the winter when we often end up on the couch and are passive,” says physical therapist Scott Tremmel. “We’re just not as active when the cold weather sets in, but skiing keeps you moving to continue to build up your endurance. When you’re skiing, you’re often out with a group of friends and you’re socializing. You’re getting fresh air and taking in the beautiful scenery around you. It’s good for your emotional health.”
