Always Hungry

Did you know that when you’re hungry, sometimes it’s because you’re thirsty? 

If you’re not drinking enough water throughout the day, get ready for ravenous hunger. Try drinking more water all throughout the day, especially when you’re hungry for no reason.“No reason” means that you’ve eaten a proper amount of a proper meal, but you’re still hungry a half-hour later.

Or you just remain ravenous regardless of how much you’ve eaten. But maybe we drink plenty of water and are still hungry. What could that be?  Sometimes, we crave tastes more than we’re actually craving more food. Cravings aren’t the same as hunger.

Craving is like lust, not love. A craving can provoke us to eat when we’re really not hungry at all. There is also emotional or psychological hunger. Maybe we just thought of a snack we hadn’t had in a while. Maybe we’re bored. Maybe we’re nervous.

Maybe we’re addicted due to specialized chemicals, from other foods, that makes us crave, even when our stomachs are full. It’s literally like a drug. Remember, the cleaner you eat, the more GOOD fat you eat, the more stress is UNDER control, the more water you drink, AND the more creative you get with GOOD foods, the LESS hungry you will feel.
