At-Home Workouts

Taylor made the best of COVID-19 lockdowns by switching to at-home workouts. "I've really been missing my Muay Thai training sessions so feel lucky that I have a bag here to train with," she says. "I've also been using Kayla Itsines' 'Sweat' app which is a great eight week bikini-bod programme."

Turmeric and Probiotics

Taylor takes a variety of supplements, including B vitamins, probiotics, and turmeric. "Curcumin [the active ingredient in turmeric] has many biological activities, not all of which are understood," says Mary-Eve Brown, RDN, CSO, LDN. "Like other colorful plant-based foods, turmeric is rich in phytonutrients that may protect the body by neutralizing free radicals (pollution, sunlight) and shielding the cells from damage. Anyone who's trying to manage inflammation could benefit from adding some turmeric to their foods."

She Loves Vegan Food

Taylor enjoys vegan food but also loves seafood. "Phat Phuc noodle bar in Chelsea [London] is my favorite for pho and prawn dim sum," she says. "I also love a good vegan box from The Grain Shop in Portobello." Prawns—or shrimp—offer many health benefits, experts say. "Prawns are a useful source of the B group of vitamins, including B12 and folate," says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. "These vitamins play an important role in energy production and replenishing red blood cells. Prawns provide about 22 times the vitamin E levels of either chicken or beef. This fat-soluble vitamin acts as an antioxidant and may be protective against heart disease and cancer."

Boxing

Taylor loves boxing workouts. "This kind of boxing has many health benefits, because it constantly requires you to think, change your position, and change your posture," says physical therapist Linda Arslanian, director of rehabilitation services at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women's hospital. "You're swinging your arms, moving the muscles of your arms and shoulders, increasing your upper-body strength. And when you're in the boxer crouch with a wide stance, with your knees slightly bent, you're strengthening your core muscles, back, and legs."

Skincare Routine

Taylor uses face oils to keep her complexion beautiful and healthy. "I've had some skin issues recently so have been using isolation time to try and sort it out and give it a break from makeup," she says. "At the moment I'm using La Roche-Posay moisturizing wash. I love Sand and Sky pink clay mask and have been mixing it with frankincense powder. I also mix in a bit of frankincense oil with The Ordinary pressed rose oil for moisturizer. Basically frankincense everything."
