“Listen to your body.” That is what they say. Well my body is telling me right now to eat every sugary carbohydrate in sight! I have never felt more strongly before that my body needs Ben & Jerry’s. 

Why might I be feeling this way? Is this really what my body needs? Well the truth is that our bodies are programmed for feast & famine. And these feast or famine alerts are set off due to stress. And in this 21st century, stress is unavoidable.
