MACRO & MICRO NUTRIENTS

Appetite vs. Hunger

Hunger �Hunger is the desire for food which can be satisfied by ingestion of a filling meal. �Hunger is regulated by the hypothalamic centers that respond to the levels of nutrients in the blood. �When the levels are low the hypothalamus stimulates the sensation of hunger. �Messages received by the hypothalamus reduce hunger as food is chewed and swallowed and begins to fill the stomach.

Appetite �Appetite is a desire for food but it often has no relationship to the NEED for food. �Even after an adequate meal that has relieved hunger, a person may still have an appetite for additional food. �A variety of factors can affect the appetite: �Emotional state �Cultural influences �Habitual nature �Memories of past food intake
