Psychology of Eating

I believe there are many of us who are manipulated by food. Even when it comes to organic vs. non-organic; how can one distinguish the difference between the two? It is very difficult, especially when it comes to vegetables. In meats the sodium levels are higher, so it is noticeable from the taste. In addition, chronic dieters have a special way of eating, which is by time. There was UCSD study consisting of times to eat. There were two variables, one person was a chronic dieter, and the other person was normal. The time was 7 pm, so the clock was set back two hours, and the chronic dieter usually ate at 5. Then, the normal person was not hungry but the chronic dieter was, because they ate consistently by time. I believe chronic dieting can change your life dramatically and it puts so much focus around food and the things you eat. Soon, a person will also lose the connection with their stomach and start looking at external sensors, such as time. I am a true believer of the mind and body connection. When the mind has upsetting thoughts, the body follows it. This also can contribute to one's immunity, if your immunity is well, usually there is a high correlation with your spirit and being. For example, in India, there are ritualistic people who live on 3 almonds a day, but their spirt is so strong, they remain very healthy. For this reason, the psychology of the mind, body and spirit can relate to being a healthy individual!
