Hunger is such a powerful feeling that it propels us to certain irrational moves, just to out-jog the pangs of hunger.
Picture this: you're absolutely starving. Not the 'I skipped breakfast' kind of hungry, but the 'I haven't eaten all day' type. In this episode of 'Ego Killer', Johann Francis, a fitness trainer with over two decades of experience, dives into how hunger messes with our minds and bodies. He breaks down why we act almost irrationally when we're famished and how those pangs can lead us to make some pretty questionable decisions.
Johann explains the biological tug-of-war between ghrelin, the hormone that makes you feel ravenous, and leptin, the one that tells you to chill out. It's a fascinating look at how these hormones drive us to binge on sugary snacks or overeat at dinner just because we've been starving all day. But it’s not just about hormones; Johann also explores how society feeds into our cravings, literally and figuratively.
From the easy access to sugary treats to the rewarding feeling of a big dinner after a long day, he covers it all. And if you think hunger only affects your waistline, think again. Johann delves into its impact on decision-making and even touches on how hunger issues play out for the homeless. He offers practical tips on managing hunger in a healthier way, emphasizing regular meals and exercise as key strategies.
So, if you've ever wondered why you can't resist that late-night snack or why your willpower seems to vanish when you're hungry, this episode is for you. Tune in to learn how to take control of your hunger before it takes control of you.
