Women’s Health asked Scherzinger what the most helpful piece of wellness advice she received was. Scherzinger gave many answers, including emphasizing the importance of moderation. “Don’t deprive yourself of anything because eventually you’ll crave it and then you might binge on it. Everything in moderation."

5. She Gets Enough Sleep

Another piece of wellness advice Scherzinger gave to Women’s Health was making sure to get enough sleep. She says, “Get lots of sleep - sleep really makes such a huge difference.” Consider this, from the Mayo Clinic:

• “Sleep quality. If your sleep is frequently interrupted, you're not getting quality sleep. The quality of your sleep is just as important as the quantity.
• Previous sleep deprivation. If you're sleep deprived, the amount of sleep you need increases.
• Pregnancy. Changes in hormone levels and physical discomfort can result in poor sleep quality.
• Aging. Older adults need about the same amount of sleep as younger adults. As you get older, however, your sleeping patterns might change. Older adults tend to sleep more lightly, take longer to start sleeping and sleep for shorter time spans than do younger adults. Older adults also tend to wake up multiple times during the night.”
