Models and Health
If you want to be a successful model and to stay a successful model for any length of time, you need to be in the best possible health.
The biggest single problem models have to cope with is staying fit, lean and radiant while eating on the run or even jetting from one city to another.
It is important to point out here that the most successful supermodels are NOT skinny. Linda Evangelista, Helena Christensen, Christie Turlington, Naomi Campbell, Elle McPherson, Claudia Schiffer and Cindy Crawford, and new rising superstar model Filippa Hamilton all have a lean, fit, proportional body shape and look healthy and well.
They are known as ‘supermodels’ because their images have sold more product than any other. The fashion industry knows this and actually wants women who fit that profile.
Occasionally, a fuss is made about the extremes. Larger models like Sophie Dahl may receive some exposure, and then some ‘heroin chic’ or ‘size zero’ models may be featured, but it is important to emphasise that these extremes are merely headline grabbers and do not represent the mainstream of modelling.
All too often though, we hear of models finding it difficult
to stay lean and to stay well. We see burnout, anorexia
and bulimia, we see cocaine and amphetamine abuse,
and we see chain smoking.
The ‘heroin chic’ fad of a few years ago was over in less than
3 months because of one inescapable truth:
Skinny models don’t sell clothes!
We like our models healthy because healthy women
are beautiful women and because we want to
admire and relate to them – not pity them!
But what is the real issue here? The single biggest difficulty affecting all of us, whether we want to be models or not, is the appalling nutritional standard of food in the Western world today.
Look at the facts. The last 50 years have seen a rise in obesity, anorexia, Type 2 Diabetes, heart disease, stroke, cancer and anti-social behaviour. All of these things have either attained or are close to attaining epidemic proportions. Although there are other factors involved, the single, key common denominator is nutrition.
Imagine you are a model, living a hectic lifestyle and under pressure to remain slim and healthy at all times. You arrive in a foreign city from a delayed flight. You are tired and hungry and you have an early shoot tomorrow. Most restaurants are closed. The only food available is awful. Tomorrow, straight after the shoot, you must fly to another city to take part in a runway fashion show. You will be working non-stop. There will be fittings, adjustments, hair, make-up, waiting in line, rehearsals, changes of programme. If you get a second, you will be networking with the other models and trying to get the attention of the bookers to make sure you are in the next show and the one after that!
As an Honours graduate in Biology with 20 years of professional and
personal experience in this field, I have found the best solution to be
the range of nutrition products of the Herbalife Corporation.
