Why does eating a lot make you even hungrier the next day?

608 viewsBiologyOther

I had a heavy, sumptuous meal lately. I was so full that I even skipped breakfast the next day. But by lunchtime I was craving a hearty meal again, even though I definitely didn’t need the food. It was like a hangover. Isn’t that completely illogical?

Carbs (bread, sugar) just make you hungry later, simple as that. It’s why a Subway bun (and everything else in the food industry nowadays) is loaded with sugar. Return business is good business.

Try eating a bunch of tuna and chicken, it’ll be a while before you wanna even look at food.

The technical reason is that sugar is a simple carb and your body therefore absorbs it crazy fast, spiking your glucose levels and making you tired and hungry.
