Understanding why you’re always hungry can
help to defeat excessive hunger and get you
on the road to healthier and more moderate
eating.
- Alcohol
Your glass of wine or beer with dinner could
be contributing to your hunger. Research has
shown that drinking alcohol can increase the
presence of the hormone, ghrelin, which
triggers a feeling of hunger. In addition to
eating more while drinking, the increased
feeling of hunger can carry on to subsequent
meals.
- Speed Eating
Although quickly eating a meal on the run or
between meetings may be a time saver, it can
backfire in the long run. When you eat
quickly, the hormone your stomach sends to
let your body know that you’re full doesn’t
have time to trigger, preventing you from ever
feeling full. Studies have proven that
individuals who take longer to chew their
food stay fuller longer.
- Sleep Deprivation
In today’s fast paced society, it is common
for people to get as few as four or five hours
of sleep a night. When your body hasn’t had
adequate rest, it becomes more difficult to
produce the hormone leptin, which is
responsible for allowing your body to feel full.
Sleep deprivation also leads to an increase in
the production of the hunger inducing
hormone ghrelin. Furthermore, sleep
deprivation stimulates the part of the brain
that is responsible for recognizing food as a
source of pleasure.
- Peer Pressure
Making healthy choices is infinitely more
difficult when you’re with a large group. When
friends and family are indulging in unhealthy
plates or desserts at dinner, it isn’t always
easy to say no. Avoiding unhealthy options is
particularly difficult when you’re dating or
find yourself in new social situations when
the desire to fit in is more prevalent. Try not
to let these pressures deter you from your
mission, a healthy you will be a happier you
in the long run!
- Skipping Breakfast
Many people skip breakfast as a way to save
time in the morning. Skipping breakfast has
many negative repercussions such as;
slowing down your metabolism, causing you
to feel hungry, and stimulating your body into
storing food instead of burning it. People who
skip breakfast are nearly five times as likely
to be obese than their breakfast eating
counterparts.
- Too Much Tube Time
While watching television, you’re more likely
to eat processed snack foods, eat high
calorie meals, and indulge in soft drinks. In
fact, people who watch more than two hours
of television a day are more likely to be
overweight than individuals who watch less
television.
- Stress
Many people turn to food as a coping
mechanism, eating as a way to deal with
stressful or negative emotions. This can lead
to an unhealthy eating cycle. Stress eating
does not reduce negative emotions or
anxieties, but rather triggers the need to eat
more and leads to weight gain and further
anxieties.
- Diet Soda
Once touted as a healthy alternative to
sugary drinks, diet soda has a negative
impact on appetite and overall health. Sugar
substitutes can alter the body’s ability to feel
full and trigger feelings of hunger. When
tasting something sweet, our bodies expect
sugar and calories to follow. When this
doesn’t happen, our brain is confused and
must adapt to a new process.
- Dehydration
Often, what people perceive as hunger is
actually thirst. This is especially true when a
person is chronically dehydrated. In fact,
many symptoms that people think of as
associated with hunger; crankiness, low
energy, feeling weak, can be attributed to
dehydration.
- Eating Processed Foods
Processed foods are often high in calories
and low in nutrients. Because of this your
body continues to crave sustenance.
Additionally, processed food often contains
additives and chemicals that can be
addictive. Some research has shown that
high fructose corn syrup, which is a main
ingredient in many processed foods, can slow
down production of the hormone leptin, which
tells the brain that you are full.
- Chewing Gum
Chewing gum, even sugar free gum, can
increase feelings of hunger. When gum is
chewed, the saliva that is produced is
swallowed and sent to the stomach. The body
then looks for food to follow which can make
you hungrier
