1. What time of day do you usually eat protein and carbohydrates? How
do they make you feel?
Jose’s Answer: I usually eat protein and carbohydrates at lunch and dinner, after lunch I usually
feel drowsy and sometimes, I need to sleep a little. In the afternoon – evening, I usually eat less
carbohydrates and more protein, it makes me feel little sleep-in truth; on the other hand, my
mood almost never varies between one meal and the other.
Hernan’s Answer: I usually eat protein at lunch and carbohydrates at dinner. They make me feel
in a good mood because I feed very well without problems.

Jose’s Answer: I don't like to eat chocolate very often, I eat it rarely, but obviously chocolate
makes me feel very happy, it's a strange feeling
Hernan’s Answer: I do not usually eat chocolate. I would say three times at month. To me, that’s
the same if I eat chocolate or not, so in this way is a normal mood.

3. After reading the article, is there anything you would change about
your eating habits?
Jose’s Answer: I think I would change the amount of carbohydrates that I eat, in order to lose
some weight, and obviously to feel my body lighter and more rested, I think dieting is essential
but sometimes it is more a matter of disposition
Hernan’s Answer: Yes, I would change the amount of carbohydrates and proteins I eat, in order
to avoid bad moods and diseases.
