Read More »NEW YORK — A new study confirms that female models are often forced to go to great, potentially harmful lengths to simply stay employed. Published in the International Journal of Eating Disorders, researchers from Northeastern University, Harvard, and the labor organization The Model Alliance, looked at 85 adult models, with a mean age of 22.7 years, who had taken part in New York Fashion Week in 2016. Through anonymous survey responses, the researchers found that 81% of models possess a Body Mass Index, or BMI, that would be classified as underweight. Many of the models examined used unhealthy methods to maintain a lean frame, a strategy that can particularly backfire on younger models. Already being underweight and having an eating disorder “can have serious consequences on growth and development… for life,” Rachel Rogers, the study’s author and professor of applied psychology at Northeastern University, told BuzzFeed Health. This study is notable in that it is the first to find a causal relationship between real or perceived pressure from agencies to maintain a certain appearance, and eating disorders. Sixty-two percent of the models surveyed reported having been asked to shed weight, while 54% were told that they wouldn’t be able to get work unless they lost weight. Twenty-one percent were told by their agency that they would be let go unless they dropped some pounds. The study noted the models would consequently turn to dangerous measures in order to keep their jobs by “sometimes, often, or always” resorting to one or more of these methods:

When it comes to your beauty routine, sleep may be the closest thing there is to a fountain of youth. Your body repairs itself and recovers while you snooze, and that leads to a long list of benefits for your looks. The key is to get enough shut-eye -- 7 to 9 quality hours each night. If you’re getting fewer than 6 hours, it’s likely affecting your appearance, says Michael Breus, PhD, a board-certified sleep specialist. Start getting 1 to 3 more hours of Zzz's, and you could see some improvement in as little as a day. Keep it up, and “within 2 to 3 weeks, people will notice that you’re sleeping better by the way you look,” Breus says.
While some people have success staying on keto for an extended period of time, “the long-term research is limited,” says Jill Keene, RDN, in White...
