Yes it is really nourishing us because Holy Communion separates us from sin. The body of Christ we receive in Holy Communion is "given up for us," and the blood we drink "shed for the many for the forgiveness of sins." For this reason the Eucharist cannot unite us to Christ without at the same time cleansing us from past sins and preserving us from future sins.

What does the eucharist mean for Catholics?
The purpose of the Eucharist is to make us united with Christ spiritually since we no longer see him in the physical and visible reality of life. If Christ is present now I guess we would not need the Eucharist because His living presence would suffice all our lack. So, it is the Eucharist that builds that inner spiritual craving and intimacy in us with the Lord. . Likewise, it is the Eucharist that will lead us toward the Kingdom where he Himself reigns. It will be our earthly foundation an escatological reality.
