Physical hunger is the need that the body has to ingest food to sustain life. It is a hunger that we feel in the body.

Emotional hunger is what is commonly called "will to eat". Is a psychological hunger that has nothing to do with the vital need to nourish ourselves and that can be triggered by stress, anguish, anxiety, nervousness, frustration, insecurity, low self-esteem or just boredom.

Emotional hunger is what is commonly called "will to eat". Is a psychological hunger that has nothing to do with the vital need to nourish ourselves and that can be triggered by stress, anguish, anxiety, nervousness, frustration, insecurity, low self-esteem or just boredom, pure and simple.

The question that arises whenever we want to eat, without having the certainty if we need to ingest food, is "do I feel hungry?". To help define this doubt, whenever you are not sure if you are really hungry, try to drink water or tea. Often, when hunger is emotional, this mere trick triggers the mechanism of satiety.

If you are really hungry, your body will tell you that needs to be fed.
