Chapter 13 of Food fix tells us that the “food we eat modulates all our biology, including our brain function. Food affects our hormones, brain chemistry, nutrient status, and other chemical and biological functions. What we eat affects our thinking, mood, and behavior.” So, have you every really thought about what you eat in a day, or week?
For this assignment, keep a food diary. Write down everything you eat this week (5 days) and why you ate it. Also note how you felt afterwards. Also, include the cost of your meals, even if your mom made it and paid for it. You can do this essay style or in a chart, get creative, but be sure to let me know how you felt when you ate your meals.
As you eat this week and keep your diary, think about food policy. How does food affect our bodies, our minds, and our overall health. You will likely notice that some foods make you sleepy or “heavy” and some seem to give you energy and make you feel good. So, tie that in your mind back to food policy and what kinds of food the USDA says we should be eating.
