Now, there are some considerations to be made of the words "This is my body". When the context and composition of the statement are considered as well as the analogy of faith it becomes clear that the meaning of the words is figurative. Indeed, so clear is the symbolic nature of the elements that nobody would (or does) believe otherwise for a reason besides traditions of men. There is nothing in scripture which compels us to take the literal sense.

>how can someone know they are not following best practices if every authority figure in their life says so?
You can follow the method Jesus gave us for this problem: testing the traditions of men by the word of God (Mark 7)

The solution is God's word. The religions of man are self-serving, worldly, and indefensible. The bible alone gives you a worldview which allows rationality, and which is God-focused, humble and transcendent, because in Jesus Christ all things hold together and there is no other name by which we may be saved.
