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?
In: Biology
This is the simplest explanation, imagine your tummy is like a tank for food. When you eat a lot, your tank gets full. But your body uses up all the food you put in the tank, so by the next day, the tank is empty again. Since your tank is empty, your body sends signals to your brain that it needs more food to fill up the tank again. That’s why you feel even hungrier the next day after eating a lot the day before. It’s like your body saying, “Hey, I need more food to fill up my tank!”
