: the why, what and how to maintain good health

Why, what and the way we eat.

There’s a strong connection between nutrition and psychology.

Reasons for eating

We have biological needs to feed ourselves. For example, babies only eat when they are hungry.

We also have psychological and socio-cultural reasons for-or not-eating and drinking. Examples of psychological reasons include food temptation, boredom and habits.

Eating habits, mood and behaviour

Eating habits affect our mood and behaviour, for example, a bad mood or feeling tense by skipping meals or eating irregularly. And thus, have too high or too low blood sugar levels. People in their best mood have a normal level of blood sugar. Scientists discovered this connection.

Nutrients, mood and behaviour

There is also a link between nutrients, mood and behaviour. For example, when we do not eat enough. The lack of energy will make the brain work less efficient. Somebody, for example, may experience problems focusing or forgetfulness. (Dutch Brain Foundation)
