Just for the record, "Trust your gut" is terrible advice. How can I put trust in something that tells me to eat an entire pizza when I've been drinking?
@GaryPoole Gut health and mental health sleep in the same bed.
@MidnightRider I think my mental health has insomnia. 🤪
@GaryPoole It evolves as you age doesn't it? I'm not only on the back nine of life the clubhouse is within view. Things get kind of Tim Leary-ish when you have friends already in the ground.
Learned something a couple of years ago re: gut health and cravings. I used to think that if I was craving a food, it meant there was something in it my body needed.
Turns out, that it's the gut bugs you feed most who are the loudest. So your cravings are driven by what the strongest critters in your gut flora want. And the more you feed ones that are healthy and live on things like fruits and veggies--the more you'll crave those instead.
@tyghebright @GaryPoole Seems to be true, I always liked veggies anyhow. Now I love them, my only cheat is nuts and mango.
