For example if you’re intermittent fasting or water fasting, and the hunger comes and goes in waves as opposed to just getting hungrier and hungrier by each passing hour. How come? I do intermittent fasting and my periods of hunger are brief. You’d think the longer I go without eating, the worse my hunger would get but instead, I just get these brief periods of hunger and they eventually disappear, as if I had already eaten.
In:
What I understand from what I’ve read is that hunger pangs are not due to real hunger but more due to your stomach being used to receiving food at regular intervals.
I’ve read about something called true hunger which you apparently feel in your throat once you’re actually hungry. Apparently this feeling is very intense and can not be compared to the slight discomfort of hunger pangs.
I may be wrong but this kind of makes sense to me, you’re not hungry 3 hours after your last big meal, there’s just no way.
