A holistic approach to nutrition and wellness keeps this TV doctor in peak health
Working long hours in a hospital can be taxing—even in TV land. But Chicago Med star Torrey DeVitto stays healthy and energized for her role as ER doctor Natalie Manning by employing a holistic approach to nutrition and wellness. And whether she’s staying true to her decade-long convictions as a vegetarian, achieving calm by cutting coffee, or using spiritual work to tap into the mind-body connection, the actress keeps finding new ways to nourish and center herself for the long haul.
Changing her eating habits paved the way for her transformational thinking. “I love being a vegetarian,” says DeVitto, 33. “I really feel like it’s a reflection of my whole belief system. I try to make everything that I put on my body and in my body cruelty-free. I do eat dairy, so I try to be conscious about where it’s coming from.”
Her conscious living extends to meditative exercises on set. “I have little things that I’ve learned through my energy healer, like little ways I stand in the corner in between takes and just take 30 seconds to do energy protection or grounding (exercises),” DeVitto, a licensed Reiki practitioner, says.
In terms of protein, how do you stay energized during long hours on set with a plant-based diet?
