Q.

True or false: If you have an appetite, it means you're hungry.A.

False.

Appetite and food intake do not correlate, in part because the definition of appetite is so broad.

It includes all the impulses and instincts that guide our relationship to food.

So, depending on how much we crave, our level of hunger, our tendency to indulge or deny cravings, and the amount of food it takes before we reach satiety, the amount we actually consume can differ greatly from person to person, even if the hunger level is similar.

"In fact, it is possible to be hungry without having an appetite, although this usually occurs only when someone is sick, or perhaps depressed or very stressed.

The body sends signals that food is needed - hunger - but due to one of these states food might be unappealing, and consequently there is no appetite," says Hollie Raynor, Ph.D.
