Why Am I Hungry? Bizarre Things Stoking Your Hunger

El Paso, TX. Chiropractor Dr. Alex Jimenez & Athletic Fitness Trainer Daniel Alvarado take a look at why people trying to lose weight are always hungry.

Why Am I famished … like all of the time?” Is that a question you’re asking a lot lately? That’s because weight loss is a bit more complex than “calories in, calories out.” While that is certainly important, getting your hormones under control is essential to stifle an out of control hunger.

Fortunately, you’re not destined to get a life of counting calories (and feeling starved all the time). Eating well, exercising and moving more during the day are key methods to shed weight. However, you can find several other ways to begin chipping away at those last few pounds, too. Here are a few odd things which make you hungry. And how you can start taking steps to reverse overeating …

I Am Hungry Because? 3 Odd Causes

 

1. Salt

Eating salt makes you thirsty? Nope. A team of researchers from Vanderbilt University found that while excessive salt consumption can cause you to be thirsty initially that the body really begins producing and keeping more of its own water. This forces the body to truly use lots of fuel to break down muscle mass, fueling your hunger. This breakthrough finding changes what we all know about salt and hunger and sheds new light on overeating and its dangerous side effects. (1)

Getting your salt intake under control is essential, if you’re appearing to lose weight quickly.

2. Air Conditioning

There a theory that our body is primed by air condition for overeating and weight gain. Individuals look to eat more in chilly temperatures. Why? The body’s trying to remain warm. I get using air conditioning in order to avoid extreme and dangerous heat, but I wouldn’t make air conditioning a habit if you’re attempting to slim down. (2, 3)

3. Particular Drugs

Certain drugs might be fueling your desire. Insulin, some allergy meds, steroids and even some blood pressure meds and anti depressants are proven to activate hunger and weight gain. While you shouldn’t only get from your meds without speaking to your own doctor, fixing leaky gut can go a ways in actually reversing a long listing of other symptoms and also allergies. (Rather than simply covering them up.) Working on bowel repair can start the process of fixing the main cause of several ailments.(4)
