“Any guilt about food, shame about the body, or judgment about health are considered stressors by the brain and are immediately transduced into their electrochemical equivalents in the body. You could eat the healthiest meal on the planet, but if you’re thinking toxic thoughts the digestion of your food goes down and your fat storage metabolism can go up. Likewise, you could be eating a nutritionally challenged meal, but if your head and heart are in the right place, the nutritive power of your food will be increased.” IfsThinkingHeartBodyBrainPlanetsJudgmentEatingShameDown AndGuiltFatsMealsToxicRight PlaceStorageDigestionMetabolismHead And HeartStressors Author:Marc David

“I would say that I had to change about eating out. I used to love eating out all the time. Eating out isn't always good. I ate a lot of fast food. So I had to slow that down and that's helped me a lot.” UsedEatingDown AndFast FoodUsed To LoveEating Out Author:Jadeveon Clowney
“I'm not a vegetarian. Now, don't get me wrong - I like animals. And I don't think it's just fine to industrialize their production and to churn them out like they were wrenches. But there's no way to treat animals well when you're killing 10 billion of them a year. Kindness might just be a bit of a red herring. Let's get the numbers of animals we're killing for eating down, and then we'll worry about being nice to the ones that are left.” ThinkingWayYearsWellsMightLeftBitsAnimalNumbersKindnessWorryNiceFineEatingRedTreatsDown AndKillingProductionsBillionsVegetarianBeing NiceWrenchesHerringRed Herrings Author:Mark Bittman

“H.P.Lovecraft could've been trying to do a Marx to Hegel, that kind of thing, in other words, turn the thing upside down and crawl around inside it. But, look, the guy was eating poorly, he had like a quart of ice cream a day. He was suffering constantly near the end.

“I'm 64, but I act like I'm still 12. I go to schools. At colleges, they come out in droves, they almost scare me. I think it's just to see if I'm still alive. After I work them out - and it's not easy - I sit them down and we have a serious talk. Are they eating? Working on their body? I can say things parents won't say. No matter where I go, I talk to each one individually after I teach. They tell me things like, 'I'm starving, guys like girls thinner.' I give them concrete advice about self-image and self-worth.” IfsThinkingGivingStillsI CanSelfMatterBodySchoolGuyGirlEasyParentTeachAliveAdviceCollegeSeriousEatingDown AndSelf WorthScareConcreteStarving Author:Richard Simmons
