Is it true that models are under fed and unhealthy?

Question

then how to they stay alive and sometimes seem happy, because if i get under fed i turn sick and can't smile....

does any one know what they eat anyway?

Answer 1

It is all a facade that they appear happy. Just imagine of how they can be truly happy if they always have to skip the yummy looking chocolate cake in the name of staying stick thin.

It is dangerous to want to look like them. Many models are clearly undernourished.

It is far more important to stay healthy, eat a balanced diet and with enough energy for the day.

I guess it depends on what type of models. If you mean high fashion models then one would assume they are underfed, however I'm sure a couple may be naturally thin. On the other hand, commercial and certain fashion line models seem to be a little bit more "well-fed".

Honestly, I'm not too sure what models (in general) actually eat. Just like you, I get sick (and sometimes cranky) when I don't eat...enough, so I don't know how some models do it!

Answer 3

I would assume that many models eat less than the recommended calorie intake for them. I would also assume that the food they eat is nutritious such as veggies and fish because eating unhealthy foods would just make them gain weight eventually.
The MAJORITY of the time I think models are like skinny people who diet. If you were 20 pounds overweight and went on a diet, you would eat less and eat more healthy foods- well this is what a lot of models do, they are just skinny and don't need to loose any weight.

Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of extreme cases out there where models starve themselves but they don't last long. Models who stay in the business for a long time eat decently but are probably really careful to not eat extra calories or fattening foods.

Answer 4

some models are built small and thats why they go into that profession. many of their diets are focused around fruits and veggies. these are healthy foods that fill you up and they are very low calorie (depending on how they are cooked of course). they have very low fat diets. they don't eat as many carbs as the normal american. they carbs they do eat are high fiber, whole grains. it is true though, that models have died from anorexia. it is just important to monitor their food intake! healthy food = happy people

Answer 5
