May's Journey began in 1948 and at 21 she was a finalist in the 1969 Miss South Africa Beauty competition the following year she tied the knot with Errol musk and together they had three children Elon Musk Kimball musk and Tosca musk but may was
not content with just being a beauty queen she knew that brains were just as important as Beauty that's why she went on to earn two master's degrees one in dietetics from the University of the orange free state in South Africa and another in nutritional science from the University of Toronto juggling her time as a model on weekends and a dietitian during the day may work tirelessly to provide for her family after her divorce even after the success of her children she continues to live independently in New York City a testament to her unwavering strength and

maintain her beauty and Grace regardless of her age the first element is her eating habits she says as a nutritionist I always Advocate that diet is the most powerful tool for Good Health and Longevity I supplement selectively when the research shows that diet cannot provide specific nutrients at optimal levels Maize healthy eating habits can be broken down into three simple steps first she follows sound science rather than fad diets second she only eats when her body tells her it's hungry and third she can carefully planned her meals and snacks for maximum nutrition and satisfaction so
what does she mean when she says she follows science not The Fad diets in an interview she said as a dietitian food myths drive me crazy supplements no kale no gluten-free no almond milk ah having two master's degrees in nutritional science May follows a diet that has real evidence that effectively reduces the risk for chronic diseases and as a dietitian I recommend the Mediterranean diet or the flexitarian diet which I take the Mediterranean diet is a way of eating based on the traditional foods that people in countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea have been eating for
centuries think France Spain Greece and Italy people from these regions are known for being exceptionally healthy and have a low risk of chronic conditions the Mediterranean diet is all about eating plenty of fruits vegetables whole grains legumes nuts seeds and heart-healthy fats plus it limits processed foods added sugars and refined grain veins to stay hydrated water is the Top Choice beverage in the Mediterranean diet research has shown that following this way of eating can help with weight loss and reduce the risk of heart attacks Strokes type 2 diabetes and premature death it can also support
brain function and keep your blood sugar levels in check similar approaches the DASH diet which stands for the dietary approaches to stop hypertension it's a diet that helps lower high blood pressure this diet is loaded with veggies fruits and whole grains along with low-fat dairy products fish poultry beans and nuts but it limits foods that are high in salt and saturated fat like fatty meats and full fat dairy products the flexitarian diet is essentially a flexible alternative to being a vegetarian so you're still focusing on fruits veggies whole grains legumes and nuts but you occasionally
still enjoy meat and if you're worried about sticking to a healthy diet because you have a sweet tooth take a cue from May musk she indulges in cheat days and treats herself to a tub of ice cream or a bar of chocolate which replaces one or two meals but the next day she's back to following her healthy diet strictly so go ahead and enjoy your favorite treats in moderation just like May the next key element is light exercise May has simple yet effective morning rituals she shares that at home my dog wake me up or
sometimes I wake him up if I have to get started early I have my cup of coffee with milk and a sweetener he has his treat he never forgets that he gets a treat every time I put the kettle on we then go for a walk I try to do brisk walks alone for at least 30 minutes every day stretch for 15 minutes and wait for 10 minutes I don't over exercise when she is on business travel she takes stairs in hotels she says that having to fit 30 outfits for speaking engagement or fashion events
in itself is an exercise by staying active May is able to maintain her vitality and zest for life that leads to her next feature in keeping her life healthy and Youthful that is her active mind she is often quoted in saying I'll maybe start taking it easy at 96. she is saying that because her own artist mother retired at 96 because she was in a wheelchair and couldn't exhibit her art her mother then read voraciously until she passed away at 98 May's daughter Tosca musk writes that while lots of mothers worked but her mother worked
double as a model on nights and weekends and as a dietitian during the day she even ran a side business as a modeling coach out of her garage in Johannesburg South Africa she was doing it all herself and always Reinventing herself always working how does May musk maintain her energy and positivity the next key factor is her confidence and acceptance of her age she Embraces her age rather than defying it in her 70s we identify May musk with her iconic look of gleaming silver hair in her late 60s her agent said that clients didn't want
to book her she was coloring the roots of her hair blonde every four weeks but she thought it was annoying so she grew it out and cut it short her agent then said she would never work again but the agent was so wrong in her 70s May musk is enjoying the peak of her modeling career in fact nobody's ever asked her to have a facelift or Botox in many interviews she is not afraid to show her true self she says that she doesn't focus on being beautiful she focuses on eating well for good skin confidence
and energy and also to fit into her clothes as a supermodel and a style icon she openly shares her beauty tips at the age of 70 before she likes to be experimental and bold with her style she uses fragrance every day to feel good she makes sure to use hats to avoid the sun when going for a walk she always uses sunblock cream and also uses them on hands as she is determined on working well into her 90s she is thorough in taking off her makeup and uses good quality moisturizer every day eight is just
