Is hunger good for your body?

In the long life, everyone will feel hungry sometimes, especially young people nowadays, who have very bad eating habits. For example, they often overeat, and do not eat for a long time after a big meal, and only eat when they are particularly hungry. Such bad habits are very bad for gastrointestinal health. Some people deliberately create hunger for themselves. Is this good for the body?

Is hunger good for your body?

I don’t know what’s wrong with me recently. I always feel hungry, and I feel hungry right after eating. The hunger is very strong. Sometimes I am so hungry that I feel stomachache, but it goes away after I eat. Today, let me teach you how to feel hungry.

Is it okay for people to feel hungry?

First: This is a manifestation of insufficient gastric motility. It could be a minor indigestion. If the digestive organs such as the small intestine and stomach cannot work properly, they cannot completely convert food into the nutrients needed by the body, resulting in low blood sugar concentrations, easy hunger, and hunger shortly after eating.

Second: Frequent hunger requires further examination, including an electrocardiogram, preferably when you feel uncomfortable. Then check the upper gastrointestinal tract with barium radiography or gastroscopy. If there is no problem with these two organs, it may be caused by the gallbladder. If the stones cause recurring pain, surgery may be necessary.

Third: Always feeling hungry may be caused by gastrointestinal motility disorders. You should develop the habit of eating on time and choose easily digestible food. Eat more soft foods. Eat easily digestible food, minimize irritation to the gastric mucosa, chew slowly and allow the teeth to grind the food completely so that the food can be fully mixed with gastric juice.

Precautions

It is normal for people to feel hungry under normal circumstances, but if the feeling of hunger occurs more often, you need to pay attention to adjusting your lifestyle, diet and habits, develop good living, eating and resting habits, be regular, and avoid overeating.

After eating, the blood mainly enters the digestive system, reducing the brain's working efficiency. At this time, people are more likely to feel sleepy and drowsy. When you are hungry, your brain works more efficiently, you are less likely to feel sleepy and you can concentrate. That's why when you have a big exam, you basically just drink black coffee and a little fruit or chocolate. At the same time, when you are hungry, your metabolism slows down, but since there is no new food to digest, drinking enough water at this time helps clear the intestines and eliminate toxins.

But being hungry can sometimes backfire. For example, if you don’t eat for the whole morning, you are more likely to eat more at lunch, and the resulting feeling of fullness may not be so comfortable. At the same time, the negative impact of irregular eating, with one meal skipping and the next filling, on the stomach cannot be underestimated.
