Why Cold Weather Triggers Hunger: Scientific Explanation Revealed

During the cold season, many people experience an increase in hunger, and several factors contribute to this phenomenon. One of the main reason is the body's natural response to cold temperatures. In an effort to maintain body heat, the body burns more calories to regulate its regular temperature. This increased energy expenditure can trigger hunger, which prompts the body to seek more food for fuel.  Another reason is the hormonal changes that occur in winter months. In this season, our bodies tend to produce more of the hormone ghrelin, which stimulates appetite. At the same time, levels of leptin, a hormone which is responsible for signaling satiety, tend to decrease. The imbalance between ghrelin and leptin can make us feel hungrier than usual. The shorter daytime hours during winter also play a role. Less sunlight reduces serotonin levels, a neurotransmitter associated with mood regulation. To compensate, the body craves foods rich in carbohydrates, which can boost serotonin production and improve mood. This craving for comfort foods like heavy, warm meals is another factor which leads to increased hunger within us. Moreover, people often tend to be less active during the winter months, which can also contribute to weight gain and a heightened sense of hunger. Altogether, these factors make winter a time which leaves us feeling more hungry. READ MORE - Subtle Yet Meaningful Things Men Do When They’re in Love
