I got told the other day, which helped me understand myself, I got told that when we're hungry, especially when it's sort of like late at night, the logical center of our brain, like the prefrontal cortex, is less active and the amygdala, the sort of emotional part of our brain that wants the dopamine, is much more active.
And it helped me to understand why maybe late at night, if I haven't planned my food...
I'm much more susceptible to make a bad food choice that I then regret.
I'm much more acceptable to lean in for sugar or something that's like super high in carbs or whatever.
That really helped me.
And this is why the planning thing makes a lot of sense because I can use my prefrontal cortex, my logic center of my brain to make the food choice in the morning so that I don't find myself making a mistake.
I have that all the time.
I have this constant fight with myself where this one voice is like, do the fucking right thing.
And then this other part of my brain is like, just today, break the rule.
But obviously that voice is louder sometimes than others.
And typically late at night, it's louder.
Sleep deprivation.
Stress.
It's not rocket science.
What about for someone that doesn't have any money at all, so they don't have the ability to...
a lot of the privileges that me and you have, what are some of the very basics that they should be thinking about in order to remain healthy in a world where every convenience store is trying to sell you something cheap and sugary?
Oh, yeah.
When I was growing up and I was trying to be healthy, one of the things I used to do was chug milk.
Because I got told that it would make me tall like my brothers.
So I used to drink milk like crazy.
