Constipation- If you’re still taking Miralax or spiking every juice with Metamucil, you’re taking in a whole lot of unnecessary junk that could be exacerbating inflammation. A better fiber supplement to keep those bowels moving is psyllium husk. I like it because it has ONE ingredient—and because it works beautifully. Two clean brands are 365 and NOW Foods.

Ever find yourself standing in front of the fridge like it's a crystal ball? Waiting for it to show you… answers? Snacks? Life direction? It’s not just you.
Half the time, you’re not actually hungry. You’re either exhausted, stressed, dehydrated, procrastinating, OR you just have a really bad habit.
Here’s the thing: Most people can’t tell the difference between real hunger and a craving. This is particularly true for grazers, work-from-home-ers and parents of small children.
Here’s how to tell if you actually should open the refrigerator or not.
Real Hunger = Your Body Talking
Comes on gradually
Feels like a gentle nudge, not a panic button
Protein or veggies sound… acceptable
You could eat a full meal, not just chips in the pantry
Fake Hunger = Your Brain Being Sneaky
Hits fast and dramatic (hello, “I need chocolate NOW”)
You just ate 45 minutes ago
Only specific foods will “do” (and they’re usually beige + crunchy)
You're bored, tired, stressed, or trying to avoid answering emails
What to do instead of eating
Chug a huge glass of water
Do 1 minute of jumping jacks to wake the heck up
Ask: “Would a nap fix this?” If yes, it’s not hunger
Do something mildly productive — like folding laundry or cleaning your desk
Still hungry?
Cool — eat something real and satisfying. Hunger is normal and you’re human, but being more aware of mindless snacking is a fantastic skill that’ll serve you the rest of your life.
