She told British Elle that she controls her food so that she can actually eat larger quantities. 

"With good nutrition you actually get to eat more food because when you're eating empty calories, a massive plate of food that does nothing for you, all it does is feed sickness, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, lethargy, issues with your digestive system..."
