Health Habit of the Week: Combating mad munchies
Fitness and Health Promotion students tackle a
question about being constantly being hungry.
Q. I feel hungry all the time — what gives?
A. You may feel hungry all the time for a number of reasons: an unbalanced diet that does not incorporate all food groups, not drinking enough water (minimum eight to 10 glasses), different metabolic rates, eating empty calories, or skipping breakfast can all contribute to feeling hungry all the time.
Some quick tips to combat these mistakes can include eating five or six small meals throughout the day, having a well-balanced breakfast and preparing healthy meals a day in advance.
