Being hungry sometimes is perfectly natural, and we certainly shouldn&#8217;t be afraid of that feeling. It&#8217;s a useful body signal about the need to replenish our energy reserves. It&#8217;s just as well to have the occasional craving for your favourite chocolate. However, you should wise up if <strong>hunger or cravings appear too often<\/strong> and make it difficult for you to function normally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In today&#8217;s article, we will introduce you to their possible causes and advise how you can fight disproportionate hunger or cravings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"15_reasons_why_youre_always_hungry\"><\/span>15 reasons why you&#8217;re always hungry<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_You_drink_very_little_water\"><\/span>1. You drink very little water<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you ever heard the saying that <strong>hunger is just disguised as thirst?<\/strong> Maybe there really is something to it. If you feel hungry, try drinking some water. You might find that the craving for chocolate or another helping of lunch was really just thirst. Water will help partially fill the stomach and thus reduce hunger. Of course, we don&#8217;t want to tell you to have 2 litres of water instead of lunch.<strong> A glass of water before a meal can be a great help, in particular when dieting<\/strong>. You may also be convinced by the results of research carried out on slim men who drank 568 ml of water before eating. The final findings show that these men <strong>ate fewer calories and felt more satiated.<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">[1]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A study of fifty overweight women who drank 500ml of water before breakfast, lunch and dinner showed similar results. It is important to mention that these fluid amounts were beyond their normal drinking regimen. The results at eight weeks showed that the women had a <strong>lower appetite and also decreased their body weight without being on any diet.<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">[2]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How much water should you drink?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s no point in needlessly pouring excess fluid into yourself. However, if you feel that a large enough portion of food will not fill you up, <strong>try drinking a glass of water before eating.<\/strong> You can also drink during meals. The ideal fluid intake should be <strong>between 30 &#8211; 45ml per kg body weight.<\/strong> If it&#8217;s hot outside or you&#8217;re exercising, the need may be even higher. You can tell for yourself if your body has enough fluids by the colour of your urine. It should be slightly yellow. <strong>The darker it is, the more dehydrated you are.<\/strong> If you want to learn more about the importance of a drinking regimen, you should not miss our article <span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/hydration-before-during-after-training-and-how-to-avoid-dehydration\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">Hydration Before, During, After Training and How To Avoid Dehydration<\/a>.<\/strong> [3]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you ever forget a water bottle on a hectic day, and then in the evening you&#8217;re horrified to discover that you&#8217;ve <strong>hardly had anything except coffee during the day?<\/strong> You don&#8217;t have to catch up on your drinking regimen in the evening and then get up all night to use the bathroom.

You drink alcohol<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Alcohol can rightly be considered one of the <strong>greatest enemies of<\/strong> <strong>weight loss.<\/strong> Why? After drinking it, your <strong>appetite increases<\/strong> and you are also <strong>less likely to choose more suitable foods<\/strong>. For example, if you&#8217;re coming home from a party at 4 a.m., will you stop by the kebab station, or will you make a vegetable salad with <span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/turkey-breast-fillet-in-brine-aldelis.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">turkey<\/a><\/span> at home? I assume you&#8217;ll decide upon the first option. Likewise, you&#8217;d probably rather have fried chips with beer than fruit with Greek yogurt. <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">[4-6]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The hunger and cravings for high calorie meals, however, continue the next day after the party. You&#8217;re more <strong>likely to crave<\/strong> <strong>salty treats<\/strong> like hamburgers or pizza with a hangover. After satisfying these cravings, the <strong>need for sweets<\/strong> will start to come to the surface, urging you to have a few spoonfuls of that delicious ice cream in the freezer. Well, there will probably be doughnuts, chocolate, and your favourite cookies you&#8217;ve been resisting for a few weeks. What&#8217;s going on with you? <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">[7]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to fight alcohol cravings?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry, you&#8217;re not under the control of another worldly being from another galaxy, or reincarnated as Obelix. Look elsewhere for the culprit. There are actually two. They are called <strong>leptin and ghrelin and affect our satiety, hunger and overall satisfaction from food.<\/strong> If you spend all night indulging in alcohol and not getting enough sleep, there will be more <strong>disruption of<\/strong> <strong>these hormones.<\/strong> This then manifests itself in the familiar <strong>hungry like a wolf scenario and cravings for everything<\/strong> you have and don&#8217;t have at home. You may also be struck by an <strong>extreme craving for salty food<\/strong> that you can&#8217;t even remember having outside of a hangover. This can be caused by the <strong>diuretic effects of alcohol,<\/strong> which lead to the body getting rid of more water. The sodium in the salt then helps to retain water in the body to help reduce dehydration. <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">[5]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to avoid excessive hunger and cravings associated with drinking alcohol, <strong>it is best to avoid it<\/strong>. If you&#8217;re going to party, don&#8217;t forget to eat first. The ideal choice is a <strong>dish rich in<\/strong> <strong>protein.<\/strong> With alcohol, you can also prepare healthy foods, which will not be too calorific, but will reduce the risk of overeating of fast food at 4 a.m. Do not <strong>forget to replenish liquids with non-alcoholic drinks<\/strong> during the evening. Try drinking an extra half litre of water before bed. It can help if you add a little salt and replenish electrolytes, for example in <span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/electrolyte-tabs-gymbeam.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">capsule form<\/a><\/span>. In the morning, <strong>do not be tempted by the cravings and replenish yourself with liquids.<\/strong> Then have a healthy breakfast made of quality ingredients that will contain plenty of protein, but also carbohydrates and fats. If you manage even a <strong>short walk<\/strong> after eating, you&#8217;ve almost won against the hangover cravings and hunger.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"749\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.cz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-974371480-1124x749.jpg\" alt=\"How to fight hunger and cravings after alcohol and during hangovers?\" class=\"wp-image-290699\" style=\"width:843px;height:562px\" title=\"How to fight hunger and cravings after alcohol and during hangovers?\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-974371480-1124x749.jpg 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-974371480-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-974371480-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-974371480-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_You_are_not_eating_enough_protein\"><\/span>3. You are not eating enough protein<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Protein is the macronutrient that has the <strong>highest satiating effect.<\/strong> For example, if you add an extra helping of chicken or <span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/bio-tofu-vanavita.html\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">tofu<\/a><\/span> to your favourite vegetable salad, you won&#8217;t be hungry immediately after eating it. This macronutrient is not only important to the body just because of the greater feeling of satiety. It is a <strong>building block of the cells of the immune system, our muscles and other tissues.<\/strong> This is also why athletes in particular focus on the intake of protein. <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">[8-11]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>But you wonder why you should be the one to tackle this when you&#8217;re trying to lose weight rather than gain muscle? In this case, protein is beneficial for you. Proteins<strong> protect muscle mass from<\/strong> <strong>burning for energy,<\/strong> which occurs especially during strict dietary measures. You will also appreciate the fact that <strong>muscles burn<\/strong> <strong>more energy than fat at rest.<\/strong> In addition, proteins have the highest thermal effect of all the macronutrients (the energy that the body uses to process a given nutrient). Sufficient consumption thus yields only positives. <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">[8-11]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:19px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to replenish proteins and increase their intake?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount of protein needed in the diet varies from person to person.

It is a macronutrient that is necessary for the <strong>proper functioning of hormones in the body<\/strong> or the absorption of certain vitamins. Moreover, it is a <strong>taste carrier<\/strong>. I&#8217;m sure all <span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/100-peanut-butter-gymbeam.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">peanut butter<\/a><\/span> lovers can vouch for that, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The advantage of fat is also the fact that out of all the <strong>macronutrients it takes the longest to digest<\/strong>, and it also slows down the absorption of other nutrients that you eat with it. This partly explains why you feel so heavy when you eat fried cheese with fries and tartare sauce. Try to use the <strong>abilities of fat to your advantage<\/strong> and add adequate amounts to each meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to add fat to your diet?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are countless ways to sneak vegetable or animal fat into a meal.

For example, if you drink protein after a workout, your goal is to <strong>quickly replenish the body with<\/strong> <strong>proteins needed for regeneration and growth of muscle mass<\/strong>.

Perhaps your <strong>food portions were larger<\/strong> than usual, your <strong>sweet cravings<\/strong> were more frequent, and somehow you couldn&#8217;t satisfy them. It&#8217;s not a coincidence. Again, the <strong>hormones of satiety and hunger<\/strong> <strong>&#8211; leptin<\/strong> <strong>and ghrelin<\/strong> &#8211; are responsible. When you sleep very little, levels of leptin, which promotes satiety, may decrease.

Every adult should eat at least 30g of fibre per day. In addition to its positive effect on satiety, it is also important for the proper functioning of the digestive system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to increase your fibre intake?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to be hungry right away after food, choose foods that are high in fibre. This prolongs the digestion time and thus has a positive effect on glycaemic levels. It makes the blood sugar rise and fall more gradually, its level will be more balanced, and you won&#8217;t be constantly hungry and craving something. <strong>Choose whole grain side dishes<\/strong> such as rice, pasta, baked goods, couscous and the like. At the same time, you should eat <strong>400g<\/strong> <strong>of vegetables and 200g of fruit each day,<\/strong> which will also make sufficient intake of fibre much easier.

Even if it&#8217;s seven portions, acknowledge that it&#8217;s <strong>probably not the<\/strong> <strong>optimal diet for an active adult.<\/strong> If for some reason you have a low energy intake, it makes sense to be hungry. The body needs energy to function, which it is simply asking for. Too restrictive calorie intake is often associated with <strong>extreme dieting, which unfortunately ends in an unwanted yo-yo effect.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to determine the correct portion size?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no point in <span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/what-happens-to-your-body-if-you-dont-eat-enough\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">reducing your energy intake to the extreme<\/a><\/span> and gambling with your health.

You are pregnant or breastfeeding<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are in the <strong>advanced stages of pregnancy or breast-feeding<\/strong>, it is natural for you to be <strong>more hungry<\/strong>. Your body needs more energy to be able to support a child. It doesn&#8217;t mean you should eat for two during pregnancy. A child <strong>does not need as much energy for development<\/strong> as an adult does to maintain all bodily functions. Pregnancy is therefore no reason to eat doughnuts for breakfast, snack on chocolate and have burgers for dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to eat during pregnancy and whilst breast-feeding?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In both cases, it is certainly appropriate to increase intake. When breast -feeding, it is recommended to <strong>increase your normal<\/strong> <strong>intake by 450 &#8211; 500 kcal,<\/strong> which your body will use to produce milk. At the same time, it is important to<strong> drink plenty of fluids.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also essential to increase calorie intake at some stage of pregnancy. In the first trimester, the child&#8217;s energy requirements are minimal. There is therefore no need to increase intake. In the second and third trimesters, it is then optimal to <strong>increase the energy received by about 200 &#8211; 300 kcal.<\/strong> To give you a better idea, this is energy that can be achieved by combining 150g of 0% Greek yoghurt, an apple and 20g of cashew nuts.<span style=\"color: #ff6600\"> [19-21]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"749\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.cz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-981097890-1124x749.jpg\" alt=\" How many calories should a pregnant and breast-feeding woman eat to avoid being hungry?\" class=\"wp-image-290798\" style=\"width:843px;height:562px\" title=\" How many calories should a pregnant and breast-feeding woman eat to avoid being hungry?\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-981097890-1124x749.jpg 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-981097890-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-981097890-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/iStock-981097890-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"15_Health_problems\"><\/span>15.
