1. She Cut Things Out
In 2020, Morgan decided to change her diet while in quarantine. She revealed on Watch What Happens Live that she cut a lot of unhealthy foods out. “No sugar, no white food, no gluten,” Morgan said. “Actually I’m only juicing right now. I’m doing colonics. I’m taking cinnamon, cloves, garlic: everything to kill everything and keep my immunities up. Lots of green juice."
2. She Likes Almond Milk
Morgan shared some of her favorite foods and beverages with Us Weekly. “Of course I always have almond milk,” she says. “I like unsweetened or vanilla-flavored at the most, but I don’t go for any of the sweetened brands. I really like unsweetened and it’s flavorful enough and it’s creamy and it tastes great in all my shakes.”

Morgan tells Us Weekly that she has a vegetable that she always keeps in her kitchen. “The other thing I’ve been into recently is olives. They’re a great staple to have around and they last forever.” The Cleveland Clinic states that olives have a lot of benefits. “Most Americans don’t get enough fiber in their diets. Olives are a good source of the nutrient, containing 1.5 grams of fiber in about a half cup…Olives, which have a lot of fat, are a filling snack. That’s because fat takes longer to digest, so it helps make you feel full.”
4. She Loves Cherry Juice
Morgan says to Us Weekly that she loves sour cherry juice, as it helps her after a night of drinking with her friends. “Sour cherry juice is known to help you sleep, it’s very calming and it cuts down on uric acid. If you hang out with a party group like mine, sometimes it’s not a bad idea.” The Cleveland Clinic states that cherries and cherry juice have a lot of benefits. “Studies of long-distance runners indicate that tart cherries and tart cherry juice may ease inflammation and soothe sore muscles after a workout.”
5. She Takes Supplements
One of Morgan’s wellness secrets is taking a lot of supplements. She shared some of her favorites in an interview with Allure. “I can't stress enough this potassium, magnesium, calcium and [vitamin] Bs. And maca powder, which you can put in your shakes. And digestive enzymes. Very important.”
