Owen has been a professional dressage rider for years. A study from the British Horse Society found that people who ride horses enjoy many health benefits. "A number of positive feelings were strongly associated with horse riding by respondents," the report says. "More than 90 percent of respondents reported that horse riding made them feel 'quite a lot' or 'extremely' cheerful and the equivalent figure is in excess of 80 percent for feeling relaxed, happy and active."
Owen loves to eat brunch, especially Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon. "Fish oils fight heart disease, cancer, depression. Salmon is also rich in vitamin D. And the pink pigment, in particular, is an anticancer agent," says Gerard Mullin, MD, director of Integrative Gastrointestinal Nutrition Services at Johns Hopkins. "But stick with wild salmon, even if it's frozen, over farm-raised, even if that's fresh."
Owen enjoys Continental breakfasts with croissants, orange juice, and fresh fruit. "Citrus fruits contain soluble and insoluble fiber, both of which provide great benefits," says Tori Erickson, a dietitian in Clinical Nutrition in La Crosse, Wisconsin. "Soluble fiber can support your cardiovascular health by reducing your low-density lipoprotein, or LDL or 'bad,' cholesterol levels, in turn reducing your risk of heart disease. Insoluble fiber supports your digestive system and can help alleviate constipation. Citrus fruits are also a source of potassium, thiamin, and trace amounts of other vitamins and minerals."
Owens is a big fan of seafood, especially sushi. "Try to eat at least two servings a week of fish, particularly fish that's rich in omega-3 fatty acids," says the Mayo Clinic. "Doing so appears to reduce the risk of heart disease, particularly sudden cardiac death. Many types of seafood contain small amounts of omega-3 fatty acids. Fatty fish contain the most omega-3 fatty acids and seem to be the most beneficial to heart health."
Owens enjoys active vacations where she can hit the slopes. "Being active in a beautiful outdoor environment can't be topped," says Dr. Josef Niebauer, a professor of sports medicine and cardiology and director of the Institute for Molecular Sports and Rehabilitation Medicine at Paracelsus Medical University in Salzburg, Austria "Skiing is more than just a sport—it comes with lots of positive effects on the skier's wellbeing and quality of life."
