the only thing you destroy three times daily and call it self-care

means Any substance people or animals eat to stay alive, grow, and have energy.

from From Old English 'foda,' meaning nourishment, and traceable back to a Proto-Germanic root 'fodo' — a cousin of 'fodder' (what you feed animals) and 'foster' (to nourish and raise). The shared ancestor is a Proto-Indo-European root 'pa-,' meaning 'to protect or feed,' which also quietly underwrites the Latin words behind 'pasture' and 'pastor.' So the shepherd, the cattle, and your lunch all grew from the same ancient idea: keeping something alive by feeding it.
