Roman Catholic Answer: The Holy Eucharist, also know as Holy Communion, is the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ under the "forms" or appearances of bread and wine. To receive the Eucharist, one must be a Baptised Catholic, and have made a good confession. Under normal circumstances these are the two sacraments you receive first: Baptism and Penance. You must be in "good standing" regularly attending Mass and not in a state of mortal sin. You must have fasted completely from food and drink for at least one hour before receiving Holy Communion, and normally, you would have made an intention to worthily receive the Body and Blood of Christ. Under the forms of bread and wine, the entire Christ is present: Body and Soul, Humanity and Divinity. Just receiving under the form of Bread alone would be sufficient to receive the entire Jesus.

What do you receive when you receive the Most Holy Eucharist?
Roman Catholic AnswerWhen you receive the Most Holy Eucharist, you receive Our Blessed Lord: Jesus, His Body and Soul, His Humanity and Divinity.
