A short YouTube video by Jim Katsoulis outlining three common causes of persistent hunger: (1) undernourishment from diets high in processed foods and low in micronutrient-rich whole foods, causing hunger signals to prompt more eating; (2) insufficient hydration—many foods previously provided water so thirst can be mistaken for hunger; and (3) low-quality sleep, where tiredness leads the body to seek extra energy through increased eating.

Three main reasons you're hungry all the time. Number one, you're undernourished. If you eat a lot of processed foods and not a lot of whole natural foods, your body is not getting the micronutrients that it needs. So your body is sending you a hunger signal so that you'll eat more food. Number two, you're not hydrated enough. In the natural world. We used to eat a lot of our hydration because the foods we ate had a way higher water content level. And so now when you think that you're hungry, a lot of times it's actually just that you're thirsty. And number three, low quality sleep. When you are tired, your body makes up for that lack of energy you got from sleeping properly by eating. Eating more food so you have more energy.
