You Are When You Eat “You are what you eat.” Many of us have heard this motivational one-liner before as an attempt to help us eat healthier. Or, how about this one, “Your body is a temple, littering is strictly prohibited.” The issue with both of these is that, they don’t help me when my reward center hormones are surging when a warm cinnamon roll is sitting right in front of me when I haven’t eaten in eight hours. And if my body was really a temple, wouldn’t I want a temple dedicated to myself to be filled with my favorite things? I think we need a new “catchy, healthy eating slogan” to help ourselves out.

This is something that can actually be objectively measured. A test called “maximal oxygen uptake” or “VO2 max” is one measure by which athletes can determine their capacity to sustain exercise. In general, the test is a measure of an individual’s cardiovascular fitness and aerobic endurance.
