Week 535–Milk & Honey–Trish McCarthy–Hunger

Milk & Honey– Trish McCarthy–Hunger (When we hear the stories scattered through the scriptures of people fasting from food, it conjures up memories of being hungry, irritable, lethargic, and generally in a negative state. However, on a daily basis, if, when you haven't eaten in a while, you feel jittery, irritated, snappy, foggy, it's usually an indication that the foods you have chosen to consume may need to be evaluated as they're having a considerable impact on the amount of sugar or glucose in your blood. Before a meal you would feel hungry, not famished, starving, or irritable, and after a meal, you should feel satisfied, ready to take on the world with renewed energy. This result comes from eating the right kind of food, ones that stabilise your blood glucose level without high peaks and low dips. Being tired, irritable, and generally in a negative state is not how our creator designed us to travel through life. We operate best when we are centred, satisfied, focused, and integrated, and the foods we choose to consume contribute a vital part to that whole picture.)
