Why does your body want to empty your stomach? And how does it for you to vomit?
In: Biology
The body uses nutrients and energy when digesting food.
In humans and a lot of animals sickness will decrease the feeling of hunger so that the body will have more tools to deal with the sickness.
It’s perfectly acceptable to eat less or not eat at all during sickness. In fact, fasting (going for 18+ hours without food) is known to strengthen the immune system.
