How do you make hunger pains go away?!
Question:
How do you make hunger pains go away?
I don't like to eat late at night or close to when I go to bed because its not healthy, but lately I haven't been able to sleep so I've been staying up later than usual, and I get really hungry. How do you make the hunger pangs go away without eating?
Answers:
Unless you're trying to lose weight, it won't hurt to have a small snack before bed. Even if you are trying to lose weight, it's generally bad if you're feeling hungry since that means your body wants food/drink, and when it doesn't get it your metabolism will slow down.
So go ahead and have a snack at night. If you want to make it healthy, try stuff high in protein and/or fiber. Like a stick of light string cheese or granola, or a cup of yogurt with some cereal mixed in.
If you're really concerned, you can just have a nice big glass of water and that'll probably do the trick for a short while. Or even try some fiber suppliment with the water before bed. Regardless of age, fiber will fill you up and it's great for digestion.
