Eat Better For Body Balance
Have you ever noticed that when you eat food like greasy fast food burgers or pizza that you feel a little sluggish afterwards? You just don’t feel right, maybe bloated and gross? That’s because in the midst of curing your sodium and protein craving with that meat patty, you’ve thrown off your body’s balance.
Body balance is the balance between what your body wants and needs vs. how you feel. When you give your body the nutrients that it needs and in healthy ways, your body balance is good. You’ll feel better and you’ll feel that somehow moving, activity, and concentrating on a task is easier than before.
When you crave something and eat the wrong thing, this balance is thrown off and you become sluggish, slow, and even hungry again. This will cause you to eat more of the wrong things and that is no good for healthy living or wellness.
I’m attaching a great photograph of a chart full of “what you want vs. what you need” but I’ll go over some of the more prevalent ones.
For example, craving chocolate means that you actually need magnesium. You can find great amounts of magnesium in raw seed s and nuts, fruits, and legumes. Eat these and you’ll feel better than if you reached for that Snickers bar.
