Not Having Food at Regular Meal Times
This is another very basic need for our bodies, but unfortunately, also the first thing we omit when we don’t have time. Lack of food is very much a red flag for your stress hormones. In body and hormonal language, no food is potential death.
Stimulating Foods
That afternoon cookie or candy bar may seem to be the only thing that will get you through the rest of the day. But it actually triggers your blood sugar to spike too fast with the added anxiety and then fall down, which will cause you to drag your feet and feel fuzzy.
The Stress Busters
Apart from healing your relationships, getting rid of your nasty boss who does not appreciate your efforts, speaking your truth, doing one thing at a time, and realizing that you can indeed only be in one place at a time, there are many things you can do to reduce stress in your daily life.
Eat a Balanced Diet
You need all the nutritional support you can get from whole foods, which means consuming foods that are vegetable rich, contain good essential fatty acids, have lean proteins, and also contain wholegrain, a good source of glucose for energy. Don’t skip meals, especially breakfast, and don’t overeat.
Remember that food becomes your blood and your blood feeds your entire cell and hormonal system, your brain, your muscles, and your organs.
