Why do I sometimes feel nauseous when I'm really hungry?

Answer 1

I feel you—I get that a lot, too. There are two likely answers. One is that your stomach produces excess acid when you’ve been ignoring your hunger for a while, and that acid can splash up into your esophagus and cause nausea.

The other possibility is that you’re extra sensitive to ghrelin, the hormone our bodies make to alert us to our hunger. For some people, high levels of that hormone can make them slightly nauseous. If your nausea is severe, though, you should definitely talk to your doctor about it—it could be a sign of metabolic syndrome.

Answer 2

when you are not getting enough nutrients and calories your body isn't getting anything. You need to keep your energy unless you want your body to break down. You might not think that the body needs food to operate. But just think of a car..a car needs oil and water and gas to manuever around, without these items your vehicle could not get very far. You body needs the food so it can move. It also keeps you looking good, certain foods can really help your body and im sure you would love to have great skin, that's right food helps your skin too. The absolute worst thing you can do is to create an inconsistancy with your intake of nutrients. They need to be consistant through portion and when you eat them, the best thing to do is have 3 big meals 3 hrs apart and 2 snacks in between.
