Inaba is open about her struggles with her health, notably, fibromyalgia. In 2021, Inaba decided to step down from her role as a panelist on The Talk, citing that she needed to put her health first. She tells TV Insider, “I was given this incredible opportunity. I learned how to take care of myself and put myself first. Now, I’d be able to take on another show because of what I’ve learned.”
During the pandemic, Inaba admitted that her health and wellbeing began to slip. However, she tells Hello! Magazine that she decided to get back on track by developing a plan that worked for her. “I started to find what worked for me, and I took baby steps back to being able to exercise again with the help of my doctors and my trainer Michelle Lovitt. And now I’m feeling healthier than I have in years.”
Dance is naturally a huge part of Inaba’s life. It is also a big part of her workout routine. “Dance is part of my soul,” she says to Hello! Magazine. “My morning playlist has salsa on it and I swear, nothing lifts the soul like a good salsa!”
Inaba opened up about her approach to eating to Prevention. She says that she does eat healthy, but also doesn’t like to restrict herself. “I’m not a strict dieter. I don’t think that anything in life should be so regimented that you’re not having fun, or can’t enjoy it like everybody else.”
Inaba tells Prevention that she loves eating organic and fresh produce. She says that this is a big part of her daily diet. “I love fresh fruit and vegetables,” she says. “Fresh food is always going to be better for you.”
