After browsing the internet on how Audrey Hepburn managed to stay slim, there wasn’t much that can be found except for a poem that was said to be referring to Audrey’s beauty secrets. But apart from that, we believe that it was more of the poverty factor way back when she was little that took a great toll on her adult weight. People who have known Audrey stated that there was a time when she would only have a meal composed of eating tulips-based flour for most of the time.

For an exercise routine, she didn’t have any, in terms of going to the gym or adhering to exercising equipments and all that. Instead, she took some ballet lessons during her younger years that helped her to shape up.

Here is the popular poem that is said to be written by Audrey Hepburn herself:
 
“Audrey Hepburns Beauty Tips”

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge you’ll never walk alone.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Never throw out anybody.
Remember, If you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of your arm.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!

To set the records straight, upon some research, we found out that this poem was not actually written by Audrey but rather it was one of her favorites. This was originally composed by Sam Levenson which was a piece dedicated to his grandchild. It was only quoted to be from Audrey since it was one of the last poems she read to her beloved children before she passed away.
