Quote of the day

"Don't eat when you're angry, sad, scared,or anxious. These emotions all shut down digestion. When you are emotionally out of balance, it is better not to eat at all. I mentioned earlier that when we eat sugar, our immune system can be depressed for up to six hours. We also learned that when we are angry, our immune system can be depressed for up to six hours. So if you go and eat a donut while you're angry, half of your day is ruined!"
~ Jordan S. Rubin from "The Maker's Diet" pg 197

Hmm, then I should've spent a large portion of my life not eating at all!!! :-)
