Your stomach and your heart and your lungs are all doing their best to keep you alive and fine. Please listen and respect your body. It wants you to be well. You should help it, be in it, let yourself be in it no matter what you think it looks like. It is yours, it is you.
Food is a drug.
Anyone who does not believe that food does not alter consciousness should try eating an entire box of chocolates, or a big bag of potato chips. You are using a drug that is easily available, and legal. You can get those magic combinations of sugar and fat or salt and fat anywhere. They alter your body and mind, which are not separate, but interdependent. Your perceptions and mood are altered by what you put in your body, be it food, drink, or drug.
