Alter Your Mood?
Imagine choosing one type of food to alleviate anxiety,
another to bolster brain power, or yet another to curb
a Sheriff Matt urge to splurge on KKD donuts.

A new field of nutrition research: Study of Food and Mood

... scientists [linked] food with mood when they found that
the sugar and starch in carbohydrate foods boosted a powerful
brain chemical called serotonin [helping] you to feel relaxed
and calm; high protein foods [had] the effect [to] let you think
and react more quickly, or feel more alert and energetic.

Donut Holes in the Twilight Zone
By David Zink
Mon Feb 23, 2004
... my thoughts started drifting towards donut holes.
I know this to be the first phase of my brain's safety mechanism,
equivalent to the low fuel light on the dash of my truck.
... [the] "bonk", brought on by glycogen depletion,
is pretty much all in your head. You really have not lowered
the level of glycogen to a point where it physically starves
the muscles of energy. Instead, the brain has a safety mechanism
that kicks in way before this happens [keeps] you from really
hurting yourself. I have no idea whether this is true or not,
but I can attest to the fact that my brain has never let me down
when it comes to suffering... my son Colby asked me if I was sad
that I had bonked [from] my goal... Someday, when he is old enough
to understand, I will tell him about the donut holes.

it begins with a full look at the worst." Thomas Hardy
