“The way I eat is a heavy statement on my belief system,” Torrey told People. “I eat cruelty-free. It is my way of being able to take a stand against doing harm to any living creature.” She also appreciates her food. “I enjoy eating so much. I eat for happiness, fuel and nourishment.” She added to Better Nutrition: “I love being a vegetarian. I really feel like it’s a reflection of my whole belief system. I try to make everything that I put on my body and in my body cruelty-free. I do eat dairy, so I try to be conscious about where it’s coming from.”

2. She Does Yoga

“My favorite exercise: yoga,” Torrey revealed in an Instagram post. “My favorite stress relief: yoga.” There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health. “Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood,” they said. “People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.”

3. She Meditates

Torrey revealed to Better Nutrition that she meditates, even while on the set. “I have little things that I’ve learned through my energy healer, like little ways I stand in the corner in between takes and just take 30 seconds to do energy protection or grounding (exercises),” DeVitto, a licensed Reiki practitioner, said.

4. She Relies on Plant Protein

Torrey focuses on consuming a lot of plant protein. “I’m constantly eating quinoa, chickpeas—all those plant things that have protein in them. I also love Vega protein powder and thinkThin and Vega protein bars. And there’s a vegan bar called No Cow that’s delicious. I always have some sort of snack on me, which is key,” she told Better Nutrition.

5. She Doesn’t Consume Caffeine

Torrey doesn’t drink caffeine or coffee, “so maybe that’s a change in my diet that sustains me too,” she says about how she maintains energy. “I love having a big thermos of hot water with lemon on me at all times now. It does something for me in the morning that coffee didn’t. I’ve run rather anxious in my whole system ever since I was a kid. Once I stopped drinking caffeine—and I was drinking about five cups of coffee a day—I felt like a whole new person. I couldn’t believe it. I feel like I wasted years of my life, and I realize that caffeine was exacerbating that anxiety so much. I drink a lot more water now. And my favorite (caffeine-free) tea is by Ron Teeguarden, the Dragon Herbs guy. I drink his Spring Dragon Longevity Tea occasionally with honey and almond milk in it. I love it.”

6. She Hydrates

Torrey prioritizes hydration, drinking a whopping “60 oz. of water a day,” she told People. According to the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine men should drink about 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) of fluids a day and women about 11.5 cups (2.7 liters) of fluids.
