The supermodel told “The View” co-hosts Thursday that she recovered from “severe depression and panic attacks in [her] early 20s” by changing her diet.
“I had no idea it was correlated with my lifestyle, and food was a big part of it,” she recalled. “I wasn’t really paying attention. I was just going 100 miles an hour.”

“Everything changed,” she gushed. “I became a different person. I started practicing meditation. I started practicing yoga. I started practicing breath work. It was a long journey.”
She noted, “Food, for me, is medicine.”
On Monday, Bündchen broke down her current diet and exercise routine in a WSJ. Magazine interview.
In addition to Pilates, lifting weights and doing cardio, Bündchen enjoys outside exercise, from surfing and swimming to horseback riding and volleyball.
She likes to wake up with “lukewarm water with a little lemon and Celtic salt,” also eating eggs if she has worked out.
“Sometimes I have a smoothie,” the businesswoman added before sharing the “poison” ingredient she never eats — white sugar.
While Bündchen did not mention jiu-jitsu practice in the profile, she has trained with Joaquim Valente since 2021 and is now dating him.
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel was previously married to Tom Brady from 2009 to 2022, and the former couple coparent son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11.
Since their split, the retired NFL player, 46, has been romantically linked to model Irina Shayk.
