Have you ever thought why we become suddenly hungry?

Hunger is caused by the brain reading changes in the levels of hormones and nutrients in the blood. This can lead us to extreme behaviors. But, there are some weird things that make you hungry.

Salt

You thought that salt makes you thirsty right? Nope, not really. The thirsty feeling comes when your body actually starts to produce and store more of its own water. And this forces the body to use more energy, which causes your hunger.

Air Conditioning

People seem to eat more in cold temperatures in order to keep the body warm. In other words, you can use air conditioning, but if you want to lose weight, I wouldn’t make it a habit.

Medications

Certain medications heighten the appetite, such as allergy medications, insulin, anti-depressants, and even some blood pressures meds. This is totally normal and shouldn’t be a reason for stopping taking your medicine but I would rather say, consult your doctor and talk about it openly.
