Kat's diet is a blend of plant-based, Paleo, and the Mediterranean diet. She tries to eat 80 percent plants usually in the form of roasted veggies and fresh fruit. For protein, she mainly eats wild salmon, organic eggs, and collagen powder, and she tries to only occasionally have grains.
"I also avoid gluten, dairy, corn, and soy, and I keep an eye on any food sensitivities," she said. "And yes, I do eat dessert when I feel like it, I just don't overindulge." This usually looks like going to a local bakery for a gluten- and dairy-free cupcake once a week, plus some dark chocolate here and there.
