When you’re hungry and your stomach is rumbling, why does it eventually stop when you’ve waited long enough without eating?
In: Biology
because brain does not like to torture itself. If there is no food, such as during a famine, having constantly getting message that “dude you are hungry” helps no one, in fact you get kick of energy when starting a fast, brain telling your body to go hunt! Of course if you whiff food smell it comes back like a mothertrucker.
Well if you wait long enough, your body starts burning stored calories. Then, you aren’t nearly as hungry, because it isn’t useful. That’s actually what usually happens overnight.
