Question:
Why do I get a large headache when I am hungry?
Like most people are like "wow, im, hungry," Stomach growls, etc. And they go feel hungry. I dont get the growling, and what not, I just go right to this HUGE headache. Also after a while the back of my neck makes this "crackling" noise. That one is kinda hard to explane.
Answers:
A hunger headahce strikes just before mealtime due to low blood sugar, muscle tension, and rebound dilation of blood vessels. I am not sure about the neck cracking. Maybe a coincidence? Maybe you are simply more aware of your head/neck due to the headache and more likely to notice the cracking. To avoid the hunger headaches, eat regular meals with adequate amounts of complex carbohydrates and protein.
