Elle Macpherson reveals the one thing that “transformed” her life
Elle Macpherson, who is known for her record five cover appearances on Sports Illustrated, has shared her age-defying secrets to looking “flawless” in her 50s.
The supermodel, who earned the nickname “The Body” in the 1980s, took to her Instagram stories to share the one practice that “transformed” her life.
“When I turned 50, I just wasn’t feeling very well and I wasn’t looking very well. I noticed my skin, hair, and weight … I was just not feeling inspired, I had sugar cravings, and poor digestion,” she admitted in a snippet of a past interview with NBC’s Megyn Kelly.
“So I went to my nutritionist and said, ‘Listen, something is wrong. I need to address my lifestyle.’
“She said I was taking a lot of synthetic vitamins so she put me on a powerful multivitamin, prebiotic, and probiotic powder.
“So I started taking it because I was kind of malnourished and I wasn’t sleeping much and I wasn’t eating enough fruit and vegetables and I was drinking too much coffee.”
She revealed that after one month of being on the nutrition plan and taking natural multivitamins the changes were so visible that it changed her life.
“I saw such a change and my friend, who is now my CEO, said, ‘What are you doing? You look amazing,’” she recalled.
Macpherson then went on to co-found her own natural supplement and wellness business, WelleCo, with Andrea Horwood.
The supermodel strongly believes in the benefits of good gut health and using plant-based products for their wellness.
In a previous interview with Body+Soul she also revealed that aside from her physical health, she also takes care of her mental and spiritual health through meditation.
“I take care of my mind, body and spirit every day with breath practice and meditation,” she told the publication.
“My daily practice includes meditating in the morning for around 25 minutes — either guided, or in silence.
“I try to live my life in a perpetual flow of meditative connection rather than just at specified times.”
