If you are too hungry, eat some meat first and don't drink water

Many people have experienced the feeling of being “too hungry”—they are clearly so hungry that they are “extremely hungry”, but after a while, they feel very full. Why is that?

The energy for human activities mainly comes from blood sugar. The reason why the human body feels hungry is a normal physiological reaction caused by a decrease in blood sugar concentration. If you don't eat in time, the body will automatically adjust and break down liver glycogen to restore the blood sugar concentration to normal, so you won't feel hungry.

This kind of 'starvation' is very harmful to the body. After the glycogen in the body is broken down, the next step is to break down fat. During this process, people will feel dizzy. At this time, if you don’t eat something immediately, protein, an important substance that makes up the human body structure, will begin to break down. At this point, the consequences are very serious and may even be life-threatening. Therefore, it is best not to be hungry all the time. “Eat when you are hungry and sleep when you are tired” is most in line with the physiological laws of the human body. For those who often cannot eat on time, you can always have a few pieces of chocolate, which can quickly increase blood sugar. If you are too hungry, even if your brain is no longer sending hunger signals, you should eat something immediately. It is best to eat some meat first, or foods containing unsaturated fatty acids and sugars, such as nuts and bread. Never try to resist hunger by drinking water. Although water can make your stomach feel full, it is easily emptied. Doing this for a long time will cause stomach problems.
