Why does your stomach growl when you are hungry

It is said that the stomach cannot be told. When a person is hungry, his stomach will make sounds. I believe many people have felt hungry in their lives. And the stomach usually makes a growling sound when it is hungry. So do you know why your stomach will "protest"? Why does the stomach growl when it is hungry? Does it mean that if the stomach stops growling, we don’t need to eat? Let’s learn some common sense about stomach growling. I hope it will be helpful to everyone.

The villagers eat their fill for three meals a day, but there are still times when they feel hungry. Just like a baby will cry and make a fuss when it is hungry, adults will also cry and make a fuss when they are hungry, but it is just your stomach that is making a fuss. Foreign scientists have conducted special research and found that the "growling" sound when you are hungry indicates that you need to eat.

Because, when food is almost completely digested in the stomach, gastric juice continues to be secreted. As the stomach is empty, the contraction of the stomach gradually increases. The impulse of the violent contraction of the empty stomach is transmitted to the brain through the nerves, causing the feeling of hunger. We call this violent stomach contraction movement hunger contraction. When the stomach contracts due to hunger, the liquid in the stomach and the swallowed gas will be squeezed, kneaded, and run around, becoming restless, resulting in a "gurgling" sound.

Since hunger contractions are cyclical, the strong contractions of the stomach when hungry usually only last about half an hour, and then enter a calm period. As the stomach contracts, of course, the "gurgling sound" also stops, and often at this time, the feeling of hunger also disappears. This is another reason why you can’t eat when you’re too hungry.

However, if the "gurgling sound" stops and you are too hungry, it does not mean that you do not need to eat, it just means that the feeling of hunger disappears. If at this time, some delicious food comes into view, it stimulates the secretion of saliva in your mouth and the stomach starts to secrete gastric acid and other digestive substances. Then you will feel hungry again. Of course, your stomach will cooperate and start to "groan".
