Today I'm talking all about the six human hungers. There are various ways that our body gives us cues that make us eat and or certainly make us feel that we are hungry. I am going to explain how they interact and work with our bodies. The six human hungers are nutritional hunger, thirst, low blood sugar, emotional hunger, which I'm sure is one that many of us recognise quite a lot, and lastly empty stomach hunger. I’ll be exploring all six in this episode and explaining why it’s important to understand them when it comes to choosing a healthy way to eat.

Here are the highlights:

  • (01:25) Nutritional hunger actually is the only form of true hunger.
  • (03:04) It was only when I learned to nourish my body in the way that it was supposed to be nourished, that my hunger just disappeared.
  • (04:01) Give our bodies the right messages and give our bodies the right nutrients.
  • (05:31) We can only go out without water for a few days.
  • (06:41) The first steps to towards a better lifestyle and a better healthy body is to drink more water.
  • (10:07) It's got no means of actually releasing fat.
  • (12:49) All the different colours of the rainbows are really, important to our overall health.
  • (15:11) We are in a constant cycle of high blood sugar and low blood sugar.
  • (17:07) It’s really important to get off this sugar rollercoaster.
  • (18:47) There's a massive connection between your gut health and your brain.
  • (27:36) Think of this dialogue as a conversation between a devil and an angel.
  • (34.54) You don't need to diet because you've mastered your various hungers.
