I woke up one morning with my body feeling stiff and achy — the kind of discomfort that almost scared me. We’d had friends over on Saturday night; there was wine, of course, and even though I’m not a dessert lover, I gave in. Right after I felt sluggish and bloated. It made me realize how easily our bodies get overwhelmed by excess — especially later in life, when they can’t buffer indulgence the way they used to.
