The greatest health discovery of the beginning of the century is undoubtedly that the survival of our species depends on the resumption of physical exercise and the return to a diet more related to the hunter who sleeps in our genes. One of the objectives of this summer should be to revive this hunter, at least its modern version, that is to say without weapons, but also without this assistance which has erased all the efforts of the search for food, and the moderation imposed by the shortage. But beware ! At no time should the search for pleasure be erased. The Cro-Magnon hunter undoubtedly knew how to find him. Let us take advantage of what we have learned by tasting the pride of having, thanks to our brain, well anticipated the pitfalls of life. So an important piece of advice, which will not make me popular with hypermarket managers: never, I mean never, your shopping while hungry, especially in a supermarket.
A very serious American study looked at the problem. The contents of the carts of the hungry always contained at least 30% more food than when they were full. What is more, products with a very high sugar content.
Take the test. For once, this is a science experiment that you can fully verify. You will see that the contents of your cart will spontaneously drop by a third, and above all, that there will be a lot, a lot less unnecessary sugary products and drinks inside. The hungry hunter instinctively knew how to search for sugar, for he knew it was a quickly efficient source of energy. It’s true that most of us, when hungry, are much more attracted to a pastry than a butcher’s shop! We have kept this quality for the misfortune of our arteries… and our wallet!
