Naomi Campbell is timeless – the supermodel, who recently celebrated her 50th birthday, looks almost the same as she did 30 years ago. She’s still popular, starring in advertising campaigns and for fashion magazines, taking to the catwalk, demonstrating the same chiseled figure. In addition to exercise, her main know-how is her unusual diet. At first, looking at the strict restrictions that Black Panther adheres to, it may seem that adherence to such a diet requires great sacrifice and strict discipline. However, judging by numerous interviews, Campbell simply listens to her body and does not go against her own desires.
Personal chef
Naomi has been using the services of personal chef Sean John for more than 10 years. The chef revealed that Campbell is a vegetarian and he cooks for her once a day. “It’s always fresh, healthy food. I also cook her meals on the plane, standard meals on board she doesn’t recognize. When she orders at my restaurants, she never looks at the menu. She just says, ‘Cook something, but not from the menu,’ so cooking for her is always a creative process,” Sean shared his secrets.
Campbell became a vegetarian about six years ago – she tried it and got involved. The model admits that this diet gives her more energy and lightness.
Water and tea in the morning
Naomi’s workday morning starts at 5:00 and not with coffee at all – she can’t stand the smell of it. Instead, she drinks a glass of hot water with lemon and probiotics and a cup of green or herbal tea if she feels like it.
After my shower, I usually have a few more drinks – with aloe and for immunity. Then I do yoga or Pilates, followed by a green juice.
One meal a day
Naomi tries not to eat after 8pm. Lunch for her is both breakfast and dinner, as she eats the model once a day. But if in the evening Campbell meets with friends, can afford something light. For lunch, she prefers a salad and vegetables, and sometimes she just drinks juice.
Relaxation days
Campbell gives herself off-loading days quite often. “I don’t starve myself, I eat when I feel like eating. If I feel like not eating all day, I just drink water or juice. I orient myself on how I feel. In the heat sometimes I don’t want anything but juice, but I don’t plan unloading days in advance. I may not eat for a day or two or a whole week, it’s up to my mood,” says Naomi.
Lots of water and smoothies
Water, water and water again. Campbell carefully monitors her water balance and drinks several liters of water a day. She replaces standard snacks with healthy smoothies that give her a burst of energy. Every day the star drinks two or three green smoothies, as well as chamomile or mint tea.
Products under the ban
In the list of “forbidden” Campbell, in addition to meat, includes dairy products and gluten. In addition, she does not touch alcohol. Strict limits in the diet Campbell adheres to the dictates of the soul, rather than out of dire necessity. Sometimes can eat something from fast food, and from sweets – a bar of chocolate. But in general he tries to avoid sugar.
I don’t drink alcohol, but sometimes I can afford a dessert. Recently I ate cotton candy and after that I couldn’t sleep, because I haven’t had so much sugar in my body for a long time. It’s true what they say, sugar is a drug. But on Sundays I can treat myself, I make myself cakes or puddings.
Vürtsid
Supermodel tries to eat as little salt as possible, but loves other spices. According to her chef, Naomi prefers subtle and thoughtful flavor combinations. It is not enough to just salt and pepper a dish, you need to find a balance between spices and herbs.
