A man recently came in to see me at my office. He was physically fit, lean, muscular, and in his mid-forties. He was conscious of every ounce of food and drink he consumed.

The challenges created by the recent nor’easters triggered unhealthy food cravings. The lack of power, light, heat, running water, and other basic necessities caused anxiety, irritability, restlessness, and sometimes depression. This worsened as the blackout stretched from a couple of days to 6, or 10, or more! Lack of refrigeration spoiled meats and vegetables. Without power, we couldn’t cook, or even reheat food.
