Why do we need Food when we are hungry?<\/h1>\n

Written by Dr harold Gunatillake \u2013Health writer<\/p>\n

\n

We all love food whether we are in the hunger mode or not. Have you ever thought what mechanism works in the body to make you feel hungry?<\/span><\/p>\n

Michael Lowe, a professor of psychology at Drexel University in Philadelphia says this about hunger. \u201cFeeling hungry can mean at least two things, and they are pretty different\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

There is the traditional concept of hunger when you haven\u2019t eaten for a couple of hours, and you would feel and complain that you are hungry. Children would cry and get irritable when they get the traditional hunger pains. Your stomach start making noises, you find it difficult to concentrate on what you are doing, and the urge for food becomes a priority.<\/span><\/p>\n

Professor Lowe says,\u201d This feeling of hunger stems from your body\u2019s need for calories; the need for energy prompts the signal that it\u2019s time to eat\u201d. This hunger is referred to as \u201cHomeostatic hunger.\u201d It is driven by a series of signals originating in the brain to tell us we need food for fuel said Dr. Amy Rothberg, director of the Weight Management Clinic and an assistant professor of internal medicine in the University of Michigan Health System\u2019s Division of Metabolism.<\/span><\/p>\n

We need approximately, 1,200 calories to run all the machinery in the body and for basic activities like talking, walking, sleeping and so on. The rest of calories from food another 800 cals are used for your daily activities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hormones in the body send signals to the brain when you are hungry. The most important hormone is called ghrelin- also referred as \u201chunger hormone\u201d start rising in the blood stream to signal the brain. It is released primarily in the stomach and is thought to signal hunger to the brain. Immediately you start eating, the brain suppresses the release of this hormone. This is due to certain satiety responses which signal fullness in your belly which tells the brain that \u201cwe are getting enough food\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

When you are getting with the consumption of the food another set of opposing signals take part. They are hunger stimulating peptides called \u201coreigenic hormones and hunger suppressing anorexigenic hormones.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr Amy Rothberg said these hormones that are responsible for telling the brain that a person needs to eat or that a person feels full.<\/span><\/p>\n

One should eat nutritious foods- a balanced diet with carbs, fats and proteins with a desert of fruits to feel full and satisfied.<\/span><\/p>\n

A diet containing fibre and lean proteins keeps you feeling full more than eating processed starchy foods. For example white rice a staple diet among Sri Lankans gets digested and absorbed fast making you hungry quite fast. Eating unprocessed red or brown rice keeps you full much longer. Sri Lankans are fortunate that there are many local high fibre fruits like jak, Kohila roots, many varieties of yams, and <\/span>
\nhigh fibre fruits to feel full for a long time, without feeling hungry. Rothberg says that protein diet is the most filling of the macronutrients. Eat an egg in the morning for breakfast you could wait without being hungry till mid-day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Artificial sweeteners<\/span><\/p>\n

You should be careful of these zero calorie foods like the artificial sweeteners. They can confuse the brain with fullness signals to signify that you have not eaten enough when you have and the brain may secrete hormones for you to eat more. As a consequence taking non-calorie sweeteners make you more over-weight rather than slimming.<\/span><\/p>\n

People wanting to lose weight should avoid artificial sweeteners for the same reason.<\/span><\/p>\n

The gut microbes don\u2019t seem to like artificial sweeteners either. They seem to convert these sweeteners into sugar in the gut and make the situation worse. Ruthberg pointed out that these sweeteners may impact feelings of hunger and fullness.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other than the homeostatic hunger so far discussed, we have another type called \u201chedonic hunger\u2019. In this type of hunger there is no craving, and wanting to eat feeling. Lowe published in the journal Physiology & Behaviour that the term \u201chedonic hunger\u201d was coined in 2007. He said that the most widely accepted theory was the human predisposition to high palatable foods.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today, most people don\u2019t cook at home, but prefer to relax in the restaurant and have a palatable meal with plenty of sugar and salt. Hunger is not the important element here. Lowe said that people wanted to eat even when they don\u2019t need. Hunger and hormonal signals are not priorities in hedonic hunger.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hunger may come <\/span>
\ndue to the smell and the visual display, probably after a glass of red wine, company and the ambience. It is more seeking pleasurable time rather than hunger need.<\/span><\/p>\n

The need for calories for metabolic processes come from hunger signals as described earlier. In hedonic hunger it is the pleasure that attracts the palatable food.<\/span><\/p>\n

A good example as Lowe puts it, \u201cA person who hasn\u2019t eaten in 12 or more hours is experiencing homeostatic hunger, whereas a person who wants dessert after finishing a filling meal is experiencing hedonic hunger.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hedonic hunger is addictive in certain societies. People must for health reasons avoid highly palatable tempting foods out of the house, said Lowe. Hedonic hunger is harmful, subjected to obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure and so on.<\/span><\/p>\n

Role of Leptins<\/span><\/p>\n

Functions and need of ghrelin has been discussed briefly above. Leptin is also another hormone secreted by the fat cells, is a mediator of long term regulation of energy balance, by suppressing food intake. As mentioned earlier ghrelin in comparison is a fast-acting hormone functioning as a role in meal initiation and increasing ones appetite.<\/span><\/p>\n

Both hormones participate in energy or calorie balance. Obese people the level of leptin seems to be increased, whereas ghrelin hormone secretion is decreased. Leptin though functions as a food suppressant is resistant in obese subjects. It is possible that abnormalities in the leptin and ghrelin systems may be contributing to the development of obesity among people.<\/span><\/p>\n

In children having anorexia nervosa ghrelin levels seem to be high and decreased in obese children.<\/span><\/p>\n

Appetite suppressant leptin is much less secreted in thin people and high in fat people as mentioned previously.<\/span><\/p>\n

In conclusion, when the body needs food hunger pains are brought about by signals from the brain and ghrelin seems to be released by the stomach lining. The moment you initiate eating leptin an appetite suppressant would be secreted by the fat cells. A balance in secretion of both hormones governs the energy levels and weight control.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sorry, leptin is not marketed as a supplement to solve our obesity problem globally.<\/span><\/p>\n
