How to Powerfully Optimize Your Nutrition Without Changing Anything You Eat Posted: July 11, 2013 @ 12:38 PM | By: Marc David Categories:Nutrition, Health & Well-Being Many people assume that the key to having better nutrition is to eat better food. And I’d absolutely agree. But consider this fresh insight into the nutritional equation: what we eat is only half of the story of good nutrition. The other half of the story is who we are as eaters. Meaning, what we think, feel, believe, and in particular, our level of stress or relaxation at any meal has a profound impact on the metabolism of our food. Simply put, the stress response suppresses digestive activity and literally causes nutrient excretion. The relaxation response activates digestion and gives us our fullest metabolism of a meal. In other words, the same part of the brain that turns on stress turns off digestion. And conversely, the same part of the brain that turns on the relaxation response turns on full, healthy digestive and assimilative power. This is perhaps the most profoundly important yet overlooked nutritional law etched into our DNA. The bottom line is that we can eat the healthiest meal in the solar system, but if it’s eaten during an anxious state, under duress, too quickly, or with too much guilt and shame, its nutritional value is dramatically diminished. Our mood has literally impacted our food. The good news is that you can increase the nutritive value of a meal by putting yourself in the ideal state to metabolize that meal. Relax, celebrate, take time, enjoy, feel nourished, and give thanks.
