Dynamical System

1-23-06
Envision yourself as dynamical system, not as a machine. It is too easy to make this analogy such as garbage in-garbage out, or expend more calories than taken in. As a dynamical system, the system is purposive and goal oriented. These goals can be psychological such as motivation, or physiological such as homeostasis. Don't just concentrate on calories, instead concentrate on quality of intake and energy expenditure. Foods should be nutrient rich and calorie light. Intake of foods with phytochemicals and antioxidants are to be desired. Free radicals age us and ultimately kill us.
