YOU ARE WHAT WE EAT

Friday, April 16th, 2010

Believe it or not, what we eat is deeply affect how we feel both physically and emotionally. If you are in stress or in bad mood, check your diet and do little changes in your diet. This will help you to improve your mood. Our body works exactly as a machine. We also need a proper fuel which is protein, carbohydrate, fat, vitamins, minerals and water, which are found in a healthy diet. If it doesn’t get that, it would run poorly and ruin the engine. So your body needs a constant flow of food to fuel it. Make sure that you eat small meals regularly, which will prevent dips in your blood sugar. If you want to improve your mood, go for good carbohydrate such as fruits, lentils, brown rice, oat meal and vegetables. These foods will give you more energy and help to burn excess fat. It is also necessary to eat high quality   of protein egg, lean meat, cottage cheese etc. There will be major spikes and drops in your blood sugar, if you consume refined carbohydrate as they have a lot of sugar in them and you also feel cross and tired. So make yourself happy and fresh by taking more and more complex carbohydrate.

This phrase also has practical implications. Brahmins, a caste in India which is known for their strict vegetarianism, are very calm and silent, whereas the people who live at coastal areas have fish as their staple food. Fish dies a violent death. Hence seashores person go through various incidents of violence.

According to Bhagavadgita, whatever you eat it influences your thoughts and if could control your food you could control your thoughts. There are three gunas in Ayurveda- Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. These three gunas are fundamental attributes that are present in every human being with more or less domination. On the basis of these three gunas food can be classified as Sattvic, Rajasik and Tamsik. Sattvic food eaters are usually not aggressive in nature and are calm. The person has ideal combination of physical, mental and emotional harmony. Example of sattvic food are fresh juicy fruits, vegetables (that are easily digestible), milk and milk products, whole soaked or also sprouted beans, grains and nuts, many herbs and spices consumed in their natural and near-natural forms. Person having Rajasik food are usually aggressive and overflowing with energy as the rajasic food increase the speed and excitement of the human organism. Vegetables cooked in excess butter, with spicy and strong flavoring agents, are typical example of rajasic preparation. . A tamasic person is usually unhealthy, lethargic, and inactive. Refined food - be it cereals, oils or hydrogenated butter, stimulants and beverages like tea, coffee and soft drinks, fast and ready-to-cook food,  canned or frozen food, precooked and warmed food items like burgers, pizzas, pastries, and chocolates, incompatible food as well as intoxicants like tobacco and alcohol are tamasic examples of tamasic food.
