Answer 1

It could mean you are thirsty/dehydrated, but hunger too soon after eating is often caused by what you ate at your last meal.  Quick-digesting foods, especially high-glycemic carbohydrates, cause a rise and fall in blood sugar, and leave you feeling hungry again in minutes.

Balance your meals with lean proteins, healthy fats, and high fiber to help you feel fuller, longer.

Your body is like a furnace, it is constantly burning and when the fuel runs low it has to tell you somehow, This is your body's way of saying I need fuel to burn. How much and when Is up to you. Metabolism at work. Just make sure you eat as many calories as are good for your body. It varies from person to person.

99.9% of the time the feeling of hunger means your body is dehydrated.

Answer 6

Your body is saying that it needs nutrients. It will deplete muscle if there are none available.

YOu should eat 6 meals a day... small ones.. so that you never feel hungry. This burns the most fat.
