Last week supermodel Miranda Kerr was in the middle of a ’skinny’ debate after paparazzi photos of her from a photoshoot in Sydney circulated the globe.  The 26-year-old blames it on the ‘exaggerated pose’ while shooting and she told Who Magazine that she has been the same weight for years.

“The irony is that I’ve been the same weight for three years…. That’s not what I’m about, I’m about feeding your body the right nutrients and also not depriving yourself, and I’ve always said that.”

Kerr has repeatedly said she follows an organic diet and practices hatha yoga but still allows herself indulgences such as chocolate and french fries.  She went on to say that a few years ago her grandmother told her she was too thin.  But after they spent the day together and grandma saw how much she could eat she actually told Miranda,

“Sweetheart, one day you’re going to wake up and it’s going to be all over your hips – I don’t know where you store it, in your big toe?”

Kerr claims that people who know her know that she can eat a lot.  She just happens to have a high metabolism.

Victoria’s Secret model Miranda Kerr graces the cover of Sunday Telegraph Magazine this week. At only 26 years of age she’s had an incredible modeling career in both Australia and New York, she’s dating Hollywood A-lister Orlando Bloom and she somehow manages to be one of the most grounded girls in the fashion business. Kerr credits her inner calm to yoga and meditation but what makes it more interesting is that several years ago at a very young age she became a devotee of Nichiren Buddishm.  Since then, she’s developed a passion for organic foods, has studied hatha yoga for more than 10 years and she even studied health and nutrition for 18 months at the Academy of Natural Living in Cairns, Australia. Kerr said,

“Yoga is so important to me. I’ve been doing it for a long time now and I’ve taken it to a fairly serious level. Through yoga, I became interested in meditation and positive affirmations. My favourite is: ‘I am a vibrant being of love and light.’ How beautiful is that?”

Amazing how a supermodel can be so deep but in this latest interview she proves to know nutrition, yoga and inner peace. She has even been working on a book over the past few years, Treasure Yourself, which is a motivational self-help book to encourage young women and girls to respect their own beauty and feel confident in themselves.

International supermodel, the sexy Miranda Kerr isn’t just all beauty, she also studied nutrition before her modeling career launched and apparently knows a lot about eating right.  Recently, she spoke with Modelina and gave some tips on healthy eating.  First she tells us about the liquids she regularly drinks such as water and raw juices.  She said,

“It’s really important to drink a lot of water. I drink from 1.5 to 2 liters of water a day,”  she continues, “I think it’s important to drink raw juices. Raw juicing is really great to get all your vitamins and minerals.”

Do keep in mind that when you juice fruits and veggies that you lose a lot of the fiber so still be sure eat plenty of whole fruits and veggies.  Miranda also mentioned that she follows a blood-type diet.

“Eat for your blood type. I eat for my blood type. I’m an A.”

Actually the verdict is out on the blood-type diet because there isn’t a whole lot of scientific evidence out there quite yet and many critical foods are eliminated from the different blood-type diets.  Lastly, Miranda said she tries to eat only organic produce.

“Try to eat as much raw fresh organic produce as possible. I live not far from Union Square, so I’m always there at the market. They have a lot of organic products and I also like to go to Whole Foods. I go to this lady who sells really great goat’s milk yogurt.”

Miranda’s got it right, organic produce is great for the body, it’s packed full of vitamins, minerals, fiber, folate and all types of good stuff.
