Miranda Kerr: Victoria’s Secret model sets record straight on controversial diet

Miranda Kerr has clarified her unusual diet, including eating bison instead of eggs, is due to a bowel condition called proctitis, not a wellness trend.

Two months after Miranda Kerr sent the internet into a frenzy when she revealed she eats bison instead of egg for breakfast, the Australian supermodel is setting the record straight on the real reason behind her unconventional diet.

The Long Sip
What happened

Australian supermodel Miranda Kerr explained her strict diet avoiding eggs, dairy, wheat and many vegetables is driven by a medical condition, not personal preference.

The detail

Kerr told the Stellar podcast she has proctitis, an inflammation of the inner lining of the rectum, which means certain foods inflame her digestive system.

And then

She laughed that she genuinely misses eggs and stressed that her dietary restrictions are specific to her condition and do not apply to everyone else.

For you

Kerr says what works for her condition does not apply to everyone, so check with your GP before cutting out foods based on celebrity diets.

It is helpful when public figures clarify that their restrictive diets stem from diagnosed medical conditions like proctitis rather than general wellness trends. When she notes that her children eat eggs and that she genuinely misses them, it contextualises the choice clearly.

The interview notes that eliminating mass produced meats and common vegetables helped manage her condition. Staying specific with food choices is essential when dealing with bowel inflammation.
raj_rhodes
It is interesting how quickly a casual podcast mention about bison versus eggs blew up online. At least she cleared up that it is driven by proctitis rather than a trend.
dawn1993
Worth noting that proctitis is a diagnosis, but the article doesn't specify whether her trigger foods were identified through elimination testing or IgG panels - both are common approaches, though only elimination has solid clinical backing for this condition.

Hard to miss the irony of a 43-year-old clarifying she actually misses eggs while the internet ran with bison as some aspirational wellness hack.
